Peel replacement Huw Stephens

[egdirdle2001]

I used to work with him at Radio Wales. Don't get me wrong he's a 
smashing bloke.
But 4 years ago , although he did the Wales Evening Session, they 
wouldn't even let him answer the phones. I would often play him new 
stuff that he'd never heard before. Again...good bloke but he was 17 
at the time and the BBC in London used to tell Wales what to play.
He used to get ribbed in the office a bit cos he was the youngest - 
he must only be about 22 now !
The best of luck to him but if you'd have told me 4 years ago that 
Huw would in some way be in the John Peel slot within 5 years I 
would have been surprised to say the least.
There you go I sound just like one of those jealous ex-industry 
types that you get on internet media forums. Maybe I am.
Godd luck Huw anyway.
