2nd January Update Conor Knight in for Sam with Danni

I’d say it is a bit of a surprise that it’s Emma. She’s had to miss two different occasions of covering Sara with someone else stepping in at the last minute. She also hasn’t been used on weekend in a little while so I wasn’t sure about her. 

Maybe... she's dipped in and out of Radio 2 both as cover and with permanent slots so you never know, she might pop up again one day... No surprise that Emma has got the gig. She's been a regular cover presenter over the past few years (mostly on Saturdays for Dermot and Claudia/Romesh, and more recently for Sara Cox on drive).

Think once her contract runs out she will be gone completely

Zoe's leaving her Saturday afternoon show already after taking over the 1-3pm slot in May. Emma Willis joins Radio 2 on a permanent basis to replace her.  Zoe's last show is next Saturday and she will continue to host music specials across the year for R2 and Sounds.

I used to love ‘At Home with Vick and Jordan’. It was nice to hear the best bits of the show like the Scott Mills daily along with them chatting about stuff after but I stopped listening after Jordan left. I guess the stopped it after Vick went on Maternity leave.
