The presenter hosted his first show after taking over Ken Bruce's old slot on Monday.
Vernon’s first song was Beautiful Day by Irish rockers U2, which he said was “tried and tested on my two daughters, Phoebe and Amber.”After playing Chic’s Good Times straight after, Vernon, who is married to Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly, said: “Everyone just simmer. Let’s bring the boil down to a simmer. So much noise in the build up to this show, as to be expected, but we are here now, we are in the chair and the microphone is working and that is all that matters.
“That is one thing we are not going to be on this show; we are not going to be London-centric. This show is for you. “It’s not all about what is going on in the capital. Oh no. Trust me, it’s about what is going on in your world.”He said: “I’m very, very excited. The BBC Radio 2 audience are very faithful and nothing has changed apart from the voice behind the microphone and I can’t wait to get started at 9.30 on the dot.”
He continued: “Because the show was so successful it’s, ‘Don’t change it if it ain’t broke’. It’s more of the same, really.”Vernon Kay begins his new show on BBC Radio 2 and sent out a birthday wish to his mum Gladys on
