How do we like the revamped Chris Evans on Radio 2 then? I never listened to him on any of his other shows/stations so would like to know if the edge has gone as I suspect as he's approaching 40.
It sounds to me like he has bought his fun TV side of him and combined it into Radio 2.
I quite enjoyed it, I love all the bits and spots like 'I never usually say this but..'. It stands out a mile from most of the other R2 shows. They have a contradictory policy don't they? If you are just your average, long standing radio presenter who does a good job then you present a bland, standard, follow the playlist and rules and deliver a mind bogglingly boring show [tune into the Ken Bruce show for a fine example], BUT if you arrive at R2 with a developed celebrity personna then you can pratically do your own thing and pick your own tracks like Chris, Johnathan Ross, Michael Parkinson. Bizarre! A combination of confidence, defiance and musical savy.

Not sure about Robbie Williams comment on Bono being his Jesus!
