Tony Livesey leaves BBC Radio 5 Live after 16 years, according to reports from Manchester Evening News and The Independent. Both outlets say the presenter’s departure ends a long stint at the station and is announced following internal communication with colleagues. The Manchester Evening News report adds that Livesey informs staff and that a note is issued to colleagues, marking the end of his time at the BBC Radio 5 Live programme network. The Independent also reports the exit, framing it as the conclusion of his 16-year association with the station. Neither outlet provides detailed information on the reasons for the departure or details on Livesey’s next role. The reports focus primarily on the timing and length of his BBC Radio 5 Live career and the fact that he makes clear his departure through a workplace note. The BBC has not been separately quoted in the provided summaries, and no further information about programming changes or replacements is included in these accounts.
