Radio review: Victoria Derbyshire

There were other issues in Miriam O'Reilly's first BBC interview since winning her legal case against the corporation, but as she spoke to Victoria Derbyshire (5 Live) it was a reminder of what a gorgeous, soothing voice she has. It's obvious she wants to get back onto daytime television presenting, and you can't blame her, but here's hoping she is back on radio too. It was a good interview, with Derbyshire posing tricky questions: would O'Reilly (right) , for example, have taken the job of an older woman when she was starting out on television? O'Reilly dealt with critical texts from listeners, reiterating that the BBC had been found guilty of "unlawfully taking my job away and victimising me" and explaining that she stands to make no money from the case once she has paid her legal fees. There were telling details of what it's like to take on a case of this sort. She spoke about fair-weather friends: "A lot of the people I regarded as friends at work have disappeared." A couple have been in touch since she won the case. "I haven't responded," she added. She heard the outcome of her case on a train from Wales to London, and cried for half an hour, looking out of the window. "I didn't feel elated at all," she recalled.
