Parkinson to return to airwaves

30 October 2008 17:19

Household name and television presenter Sir Michael Parkinson is to launch his own radio show on Sunday November 2nd, it has been confirmed.

The talk show host, who boasts 36 years in front of the cameras as well as some BBC Radio 2 experience, has added that the show will be used to talk about his life, career, and will promote his first compilation album.

"I am delighted to be returning to the radio arena," Sir Michael said.

"The hour-long special has enabled me to talk about the inspiration behind the song selections that I made for the new album. All the greats are on the album including Frank Sinatra, Dionne Warwick and Michael Buble, plus many more."

This week Sir Michael criticised former BBC Radio 2 host Russell Brand after the comedian left a "lewd" message on actor Andrew Sachs' phone.

Russell Brand quit on Wednesday October 29th following growing controversy surrounding the answer phone message.
