The radio host said she was disappointed by the decision to axe the 18-year-old Janice Forsyth Show, but touched by the number of people who have reacted angrily to the news.

Leading politicians, musicians, writers and comedians have all backed a campaign to preserve the show, with more than 600 people signing a petition.
