Russell Brand has quit the BBC due to what can only be described as a witch hunt by the tabloids after the Andrew Sachs prank phone call affair.

We now call upon Russell Brand to realise that whilst the phone calls to Andrew Sachs' answer machine were possibly a step too far, the thousands of complaints sent to the BBC were not from listeners of the show but were from a non listening demographic.

We also ask that Russell takes his show, with Matthew Morgan and Mister G, either to another radio station or as an independant podcast so that we can continue to enjoy the many laughs that he and the team have given to us in the past.
