Popular Post tonyh29 Posted February 13 Popular Post Share Posted February 13 probably for the boring thread , but back in 1991 I think the Sun or someone had written a piece about how Kevin was such a shit name and none of the great and good would call their child Kevin and so on so , Steve Wright decided to hold an International Kevin Day for all the Kevin's to be acknowledged My friend , Kevin , actually appeared on his Roadshow in Margate .. the joke being that his full name is Kevin Day anyway , it amused me 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted February 13 VT Supporter Share Posted February 13 (edited) I said at work earlier that he was a bit of a trailblazer. But then after thinking about it he was really a poor man's Kenny Everett who was doing better stuff 10 years earlier. But a big entertainer nevertheless and a major feature of my early Radio 1 listening experience. Edited February 13 by sidcow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Well each to their own and he was highly regarded by his peers but never really been a fan of radio presenters. I was forced to listen to Radio 2 every day at a job in the mid to late 00's. A few years ago I accidentally switched to radio fab fm and nothing had changed in the format 15 years later. Still he made people happy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way would I have been deliberately tuning in to listen to him in the last 20 years and very much surprised he was still essentially doing the same thing on the occasions I accidently stumbled across him.
