Torrington joins the BBC

Former GCap presenter Graham Torrington is set to join BBC Radio Bristol as the station's new mid-morning host.

The presenter formerly broadcast across GCap's One Network with his long-running phone-in [i]Late Night Love[/i], until it was axed earlier in the year.
Torrington, who has been broadcasting in the Bristol area for ten years and starts at the end of October, said: "I'm really looking forward to starting at the BBC and can't wait to launch into the cut and thrust of the mid-morning phone-ins."
Managing editor Tim Pemberton said of his new signing: "Graham knows Bristol like the back of his hand and I'm really excited about him bringing his talent to the station, and I know our listeners are going to love him too."
