For those of us not lucky enough to be there, here is what the live feed said about Jamie from Radio Today Live

11:54 Quays Theatre: Jamie: I got into radio by stepping in on Radio 2 and I loved it.

12:07 Quays Theatre: Jamie about getting looked down on because they may not be as well trained: I think that in the same way as Robbie and Michael have played the game, I can talk to musicians in a different way and ask different questions that others may not be able to.

12:10 Quays Theatre: Jamie on training: I did lots of training and mock shows and I now drive my own desk.

12:10 Quays Theatre: Jamie: If I’m not doing the show live, it doesn’t feel the same.

12:17 Quays Theatre: Jamie: Can bring the show to people from backstage at concerts and festivals, different countries and hopes his enthusiasm and insight into music is what he brings to the table.

12:23 Quays Theatre: Wrapping up the session now with Lisa, Jamie, Robbie, Michael and Victoria. It’s been a good one! A few questions first…
