“Nice to have upgraded from a bungalow to studios at the top of the tower!”
Addressing his listeners in February, Graham said: “The show isn’t quite the normal show today because I have a bit of an announcement to make.
I’m kind of off. I’m leaving weekends here at Virgin Radio, I’ll still be kind of popping up on the station from time to time. But my regular Saturdays and Sundays, I, I’m stepping away.”
Revealing his reason for leaving his show, Graham added: “I’ve worked weekends between here and the old place for 13 years, and my life has changed a bit. So I just thought, well, I want my weekends back.”
