Sadler5Sue said: “Will definitely follow Ken to @greatesthitsuk Radio 2 is so over now.”BorlaseGillian added: “Had never heard of greatest hits radio, I have now and will be listening to this station when Ken joins.”Tis_Tiff tweeted: “Looks like this is my new radio station to listen to at work starting april then!” (sic)NewHarpsichord typed: “Congrats to the team at Greatest Hits Radio - you will have a new listener with me, and I suspect many (many) others!”The news comes as Scott Mills has been dragged into the fury from BBC Radio 2 listeners, who have been sharing their dismay over Ken’s Radio 2 exit.When Ken left the show after 31 years of hosting, listeners began speculating who could potentially replace the stalwart presenter with some suggesting Scott could be an option.The 49-year-old left BBC Radio 1 in August to switch over to Radio 2 and take over Steve Wright's very popular early afternoon slot, which has led some listeners to think something similar might have happened with Ken.Steve, who spent 23 years at the radio station, announced he would be stepping down from daytime radio in September when Scott announced he'd be taking over.Lucy fumed: "It's so sad to see Ken Bruce leave radio 2.

Another legend is leaving. I don't want to keep listening to Scott Mills."David tweeted: "Dear BBC. Please please please don’t even think of replacing the legendary Ken B with that bloke #scottmills who does the 2:00 slot @BBCRadio2 unthinkable."But others came to his defence as Tom said: "Anyone who’s piling on Scott Mills because they don’t like his Radio 2 show needs to remember, the demographic at Radio 2 is changing.“There are a whole bunch of 30-somethings moving over to the station, mainly from Radio 1.
