As for the so-called interviews - with the scarcity of opportunity to see any kind of music on the BBC, that is not 'pop' - it is frustrating and a complete waste of the talents of all involved in the show to impose these pointless 'chats' upon us.

For Jools Holland may be able to play the piano - but his interviewing skills are about as good as Michael Parkinson's piano playing.

These do not have to be 'live' and can be shown separately. The show already tries to fit too many artists in to its 'oh so short time', to the detriment of them all and trying to fit in these 'chats' as well - is just crazy.
