KEN BRUCE left Radio 2 just over a year ago – and he showed them what they are missing at yesterday’s Tric Awards.
He picked up trophies for daytime, best radio show for his new slot on Greatest Hits Radio and radio personality.
He told me: “It’s a real privilege actually to have moved on and for people to make the noise and say, you know, you’ve done all right.”
On stage he added: “I started 47 years ago this month, it’s amazing I’m still standing up here. It’s been an absolute joy over the age of 60 to reinvent myself as something new.”
Collecting his extra awards later, he joked: “Now I’m looking forward to doing something else, maybe standing as President of the United States.

Corrie's double
CORRIE scooped two awards – including Best Soap.
Tina O'Brien and the rest of the cast beat EastEnders, Emmerdale and The Archers.
Maureen Lipman who plays Evelyn Plummer, took the Best Actor gong and dedicated it to Roy Cropper actor David Nelson.
She said: “I think you’ve given it to the wrong guy, I’m very happy.”

STRICTLY professional Michelle Tsiakkas says losing under-fire dance pro Giovanni Pernice won’t change the show.
Celebrating with head judge Shirley Ballas, pictured with the Entertainment award, Michelle said: “We’re sad about losing Giovanni – we are a big family at the end of the day, but Strictly has been so successful over the last 20 years – so we must be doing something right.
“It’s the best distraction for people when they have troubles in their life and they put on the TV.”
