A radio pioneer who broke the mould. Such an honour to work with you on talkSPORT and LBC. RIP Legend. Thoughts are with Nadine, family, friends, current and past colleagues. ❤️

Not only was James Whale a pioneer of late night radio, but telly, too. His late night TV show was a must watch. My favourite bit was with a pissed Wayne Hussey from The Mission. Watch from 29.30 in below. It was a pleasure to have worked with you xx youtube.com/watch?v=MGjkW2…
