ricardo 7,760 Posted July 13, 2011 About an hour ago I saw Iwan Roberts in St Giles St near the City Hall. I wonder if its anything to do with the vacancy at Radio Norfolk now that Neil Adams has gone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barclaystand 0 Posted July 13, 2011 He''s not going to do it. He tweeted the following yesterday, so end of story there I think."Just for the record I love working for radio Wales and have over a year left on my contract so my choice would be @Paulmcveigh77 speaks well" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alysha 0 Posted July 13, 2011 I presumed he was not with his wife anymore and had a girlfriend, as he refers to another women a lot on his Twitter and makes out as though he has to travel to see his children. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Monkey 52 Posted July 13, 2011 I''m pretty certain he has indeed split from his wife and has a new girlfriend, at least I''d assumed the same as Alysha from his Tweets... I think Pete made a comment on Twitter that the big man had been cycling down Prince of Wales Road the other day, and it seems he''s in the city a lot...

When Saturday Comes 0 Posted July 13, 2011 He has been with a woman from Norwich for quite a while, pretty sure he splits his time between here, Wales & Kent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, his private life is no concern of ours.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clint 221 Posted July 13, 2011 I''m pretty sure he lives here. I often see him in Ha Ha''s or All Bar 1 as it is now and have also seen him jogging down Riverside Rd in the mornings.For the record, he was at the train station at 6pm approx last night waving a young lady off on a train, which presumably was his daughter going home to her mum rather than his girlfriend (she looked in her teens!)

Graham Paddons Beard 2,613 Posted July 13, 2011 Iwan could present Canary Call in Welsh, which I would rather listen to than "Tony" . PS Did anyone see him at the Norfolk Show (Iwan I mean not Tony) ? Lost a load of weight...his new lady must be good for him [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
