Mathew Bannister knew what he was talking about. But he was wrong to hire Evans.

You're kidding right? Adrian Juste was an awful rightwing moron whose unfunny onstage comedy prank calls were at best derivative! Total deadwood...

Matthew Bannister .. sacked Aidrian Juste.. who was one of the funniest DJ's ever.. It is interesting to note that the Icons of BBC radio also left after he took over..
