Radio history sort of repeats itself

Zoe Ball has been announced as replacing Chris Evans as the host of BBC Radio 2's Breakfast Show from next. This not the first time Ball has replaced Evans as the host of a radio breakfast show. In 1997 Evans quit as host of BBC Radio 1's show that then saw a 8 month interim period that saw Mark Radcliffe and his comic partner Lard then followed by that with Ball co-hosting with the late Kevin Greenig. After a year Ball took over on a solo basis and presented it until March 2000. Weather Ball is accepted by the Radio 2 morning audience remains to be seen.
