Audience falls after Chris Evans’ departure, while figures also show decline at Radio 4’s Today
Zoe Ball’s
BBC Radio 2 show has lost 1 million weekly listeners since she replaced
Chris Evans as presenter of the UK’s most popular breakfast show.
Ball, who admitted in a recent interview that losing listeners is something she “takes completely to heart”, has seen her audience decline dramatically since Evans’ departure. He broadcast his final show on
Christmas Eve 2018, and is now at Virgin Radio.
