Reverend Richard Coles has expressed his disappointment over the way his departure from BBC Radio 4's Saturday Live has been handled after 12 years on air. He stated that he would have preferred a gentler process and longer goodbye for the show's listeners. Coles also shared that it was a shame that the programme could not remain in London, where he thought it was doing really well. He mentioned that he and the other host, Nikki Bedi, had both enjoyed doing the show, and that it was unfortunate it could not continue in its current form. Saturday Live's relocation to Cardiff is part of a BBC strategy, and Coles said in his original statement that it was now time to move on and spend time on other projects.
