"'Liveline' slot has shed 20,000 of its loyal listeners after Duffy's departure It's an old adage in entertainment: the show is always bigger than its presenter. Yet the latest Joint National Listenership Research (JNLR) figures would strongly suggest otherwise when it comes to one particular show.

"It's an old adage in entertainment: the show is always bigger than its presenter. Yet the latest Joint National Listenership Research (JNLR) figures would strongly suggest otherwise when it comes to one particular show."

Joint National Listenership Research (JNLR) figures show the Liveline slot has lost 20,000 listeners. Joe Duffy stepped down last June after presenting the afternoon chat show for 27 years. The long-standing belief that the show is bigger than its presenter appears contradicted by the listener decline for this slot. The departure of the long-term presenter coincides with a measurable reduction in audience numbers. The loss is described as substantial and highlights a significant change in listenership for the Liveline timeslot since Duffy's exit.
