Vicky Butler Henderson by Christian O’Connell

As we announced this morning, the worlds poshest travel reporter and sidekick is leaving me. This is genuinely sad news as she’s one of the nicest people I have ever had the good fortune to work with. She’s a class act and I’ll miss her. The only person who smiles when they come in before the show. The rest of us are crying.

Getting up at silly o’clock and sitting in a small very well soundproofed studio (well…) with me, Brian and Richie is unbelievably being rejected in favour of more lucrative TV work. I know, she must be mad!

We’ve loved having on the show and she’ll be missed, and not just from some of the perverts that get off on her husky voice.

She’ll still be around for a few weeks so look out for the Gucci loafers or Coutts cheque book and say good luck. I fear the scars of her time on the show will awake her over the years from a nightmare sweating and screaming. That and the manly musky smell from the week on the boat…

One day I’ll tell you about her first breakfast show meeting here and the question Clive asked her…

Its been fun, she leaves the show better than when she joined and for that she deserves our thanks. Here’s a little something from the first lady of breakfast radio…

And from this morning:

    Vicky, you will be missed – best of luck in your new venture.

    Christian – why was Vicky sitting with you, BRAN and Richie? Was it some kind of healthy breakfast kick? Where was Brian when this happened? :)

    Best of luck to Vicky. It was nice hearing a female voice amidst the mix, despite all that happened… which leads me to this. Will the show be finding a replacement for her soon? Or will we have one of the guys do the travel reports for the meantime? Which’d be funny, methinks…
