One of Australia’s most popular presenters is having to make a tough career decision as he’s forced to choose between breakfast radio and television.
Rumours have started circulating that Grant Denyer will not be part of Sydney’s 2Day FM breakfast line-up next year, despite proving to be a huge ratings success for the network since the departure of Kyle and Jackie O.
Denyer, who hosts a breakfast program with Ed Kavalee and Ash London, took the struggling time slot from 2.3% to 4.6% – the highest the radio network has achieved in the last 5 years.
According to TV Blackbox, Channel 10 and Southern Cross Austereo are fighting for the star’s time, with both companies wanting Denyer exclusively.
“Grant likes radio and he’s proud of the growth of 2Day FM Breakfast. Although his contract is up at the end of the year, it is a major commitment, so we haven’t made any decisions about next year.”
The future isn’t looking too bright for SCA, as Denyer has proven to be the most popular choice for the time slot in comparison to the others who have attempted to occupy it in the past.
Alongside his breakfast show, Denyer also hosts Celebrity Name Game for Channel 10 and co-hosted Dancing With The Stars with Amanda Keller.
