JD & Roisin

So… lots of you have been asking what I’m actually doing in Dubai and why I moved here! 🇦🇪 Tomorrow I officially start a brand new chapter. I’ll be hosting HOMETIME, 3pm to 7pm across the UAE on @Dubai92 with @kylieminogue . (Well… almost!!!) My new radio wife Mim is Australian, looks and sounds suspiciously like Kylie, and somehow we’ve been trusted with 4 hours of radio every afternoon across the country! The last few weeks have been an absolute whirlwind. New city. New home. New station. New show. New co host. Pretty much new EVERYTHING. Tomorrow Dubai 92 begins a new era too, with a brand new look, sound and line up. I genuinely can’t believe I get to be part of it. Leaving home wasn’t an easy decision. I loved my time with the BBC and I’ll always be grateful for the opportunities they gave me, including the offer to stay with them full time. I miss my friends, my old workmates and everything I was lucky enough to do back home in Coventry. More than I probably let on! But sometimes an opportunity comes along that is simply too good to turn down. So here we go… HOMETIME with JD & Mim Monday to Friday 3pm to 7pm UAE 12pm to 4pm UK Saturdays 4pm to 8pm UAE 1pm to 5pm UK A new country. A new adventure. Same idiot on the radio. 😂 Wish us luck. We launch TOMORROW! And YES… there will be a podcast. Details soon 👀 Finally, thank you for all the lovely messages, love and support since leaving home. This is a massive move and a huge change for me. Knowing so many of you are behind me has helped more than you probably realise. ❤️

It’s with a very heavy heart that I’ve decided the time is right to put down the microphone at the Skydome Arena and call time on one of the biggest and most ridiculous chapters of my life. The @covblazehockey I don’t make this decision lightly…. MORE: johndalziel.co.uk

Today is VERY special 🩵 @CoventryCityFC fans, you deserve this. Enjoy every second. I’ll never take for granted what an honour it is to be my home club’s announcer. That little kid from the Aldermoor would never have believed it! Season 26 begins 🎤⚽️ nitter.cf/CoventryCityFC/status/…

RIP DOLLY PARTON Took me back to the time I had to dress up as her, in skates and perform 9 to 5 infront of a packed Sky Dome Arena to help cover for a leg injury!!! ⛸️ I was absolutely TERRIBLE 😂 youtube.com/watch?v=m8QVaVFK…
