Haven't seen Adam Parsons lately on the NC, however planned to see him on Breakfast tomorrow though??


Munchetty Parsons! Good pairing, I reckon.


It'll be his second time presenting Breakfast, his first time on the sofa though and from Salford. The last time he presented was a desk-bound edition last summer, also with Naga.


It's affable Adam's birthday tomorrow. Please make sure you text and tweet the show to death so that they sing for him. I'll be busy, so I will leave it in your capable hands.

Another thing, Dan, just in case we need to bake a cake for him, we will need to make sure we've got fifty candles. Yes! That's right! He's hit the big five oh!

Forget that. He's rumbled me already.

He's forty two.

Happy Birthday for tomorrow, Mr. Parsons! You don't look a day over 41. Wink

I take it the studio in Salford will be full of balloons, party poppers, hot dogs and trifle tomorrow to celebrate this. Maybe a game of musical chairs where Adam presents part of the programme from the business stool? I bet both Adam and Naga will be wearing their party hats, with Adam wearing his birthday suit for the occasion. Should be fun! Alarm clock set for 6am, on the dot.

(I'm joking guys. Seriously, I bet they won't even reference it.)

Seeing as that site exists can you take this crap off this one? I don't get it, I never will, but it irritates the tits off me - I respect I don't HAVE to read these threads but I'm posting here because sometimes it encroaches into decent threads!

If you want to find out who was on and when then yes. But if you want to discuss trends etc. further, then no! Smile

Adam is also going to be presenting the business on breakfast tomorrow as Penny is off sick according to her Twitter.

They did reference it and said happy birthday to him while discussing St Swithin with the guest whose son's birthday is also today.

Adam also made reference to 'saying goodbye for the morning to Naga who's off to read the news for Andrew Marr...' - they don't usually make reference to the disappearing female co-presenter on a sunday!

There has actually been a subtle change since Salford started providing the news into the Andrew Marr show and they now do always seem to make reference to it.
