Vernon Kay dedicates new Radio 2 morning show to listeners
By Annabel RackhamBBC News
Vernon Kay has promised to represent listeners on his new BBC Radio 2 mid-morning show.
After playing his first track, U2's Beautiful Day , He Said despite broadcasting from London, The City would not be the focus of The Show .
" This show's For You , it's not just about the capital, it's about what's going on in your world, " He Said .
Kay, 49, takes over from veteran broadcaster Ken Bruce , who hosted the weekday slot for 31 years.
Bruce, 72, announced in January that he would be leaving The Bbc and started his new mid-morning show on Bauer's Greatest Hits Radio in April.
Vernon Kay is a former BBC Radio 1 host and had his own show on The Station from 2004 to 2012.
He was welcomed on to The Station by fellow presenters Zoe Ball , Scott Mills and Jo Whiley , who have also made The Jump from Radio 1 to 2.
" Welcome Vern, I cannot wait for our handovers - smash it baby, " Zoe said in an audio message on his first show.
" I'm so glad you're starting on weekdays, I get to see you Every Day , you deserve it so Much - Welcome to The Family , " added Scott Mills .
" You're just a joy to hear, Welcome , " Jo Whiley also said.
Vernon Kay has fronted various TV shows including ITV's All Star Family Fortunes , Just The Two of Us and Beat The Star .
His new show will feature a daily music quiz called Ten To The Top and performances from the Radio 2 Piano Room.
Speaking ahead of his first show on Monday Morning , he told Bbc Breakfast : " I'm very, very excited. The Bbc Radio 2 audience are very faithful and nothing has changed apart from The Voice behind the microphone. "
Asked what he will bring to The Show , Kay said: " Nothing that they haven't heard before really, just tales of The Past and everything that has gone on from when I was a caretaker in Bolton.
" All those stories that connect me with The Audience , it's not all champagne, bubbles, tuxedo and dinner parties once you get into showbiz. "
