The Scottish presenter, 72, is leaving the station to host a new show on commercial station Greatest Hits Radio. "Gardening leave is a known concept in broadcasting, and in many other areas," he told Today's Garry Richardson. "But you just adapt your timetable, and instead of three weeks, it's one week, and that's fine."

The BBC said: "Ken decided to leave Radio 2 and it's always been known he's leaving in March. Returning to Wogan House [the station's headquarters] for a week after a month of broadcasting the Piano Room sessions at Maida Vale provided a natural break. We wish Ken all the best for the future."and ITV's All Star Family Fortunes, as well as programmes on BBC Radio 1 and Radio X.
