So, the BBC has announced that Humphrey Lyttelton, host of Best of Jazz, is retiring after a 40-year stint.
But what it didn't tell you is that it might be axing his jazz programme as well.
“Farewell Humpy" is a much better headline than “Radio 2 dumps jazz". And, to be absolutely fair to Radio 2, Best of Jazz might return. Then again, it might not. We don't know and the BBC cannot tell us.
