Listeners and viewers have a lot of choice on election night, so it’s important to get off to a flying start. We decided to start our show at 9.55 and build up to 10pm when we would get the exit poll flashed onto our screens. I was co-presenting with Sheila Fogarty for the first time since our days on 5Live and the much missed ‘Sunday Service’. I think we both felt that it would be like putting an old glove back on and so it proved to be!
This opener, produced by LBC’s Head of Production, Chris Lowrie, gave us exactly what we needed to get the show off to a flying start. In a couple of days I’ll post a montage of the night’s best moments and take you through what it was like to co-present such a seven hour programme.
