Nick gives the middle finger salute to Virgin


Slight schedule change for 2008
Nick Abbot's weekday LBC show will be half an hour shorter from 14th January, starting at the later time of 7:30pm and ending at the usual time of 10:00pm.

Updated: Nick Abbot takes over from Iain Lee
Nick Abbot has taken over Iain Lee's weekday slot (7pm-10pm) on LBC 97.3 until Christmas. Although nothing is confirmed officially, many people on various discussion forums believe that there will be another LBC schedule reshuffle in the new year. Nick has said that he will not be able to continue with his old LBC Saturday night slot due to other commitments at Planet Rock, "Doing 8 shows a week is too much I think."

Iain Lee, who always spoke very highly of Nick, did his final LBC show on 2nd November. If rumours are to be believed we may be hearing Iain back on the air somewhere else in the not too distant future.

Update 2: Iain Lee will be heading for Virgin Radio from January 2008 [Radio Today].
