DJ returns after station U-turn
Feb 15 2007 By Graham Young, Birmingham Mail
BRMB's star presenter Elliott Webb has jumped out of the sack - and back into 'bed' with his former Big Brum Breakfast co-star Caroline Martin.
Plans to let Ms Martin go solo have been scrapped just two weeks after Webb was ditched, leading to a Valentine's Day on-air reconciliation between the two yesterday.
A mother of four, Ms Martin has three children by the station's programme controller, Adam Bridge.
The Mail revealed on February 1 how Bridge had given his partner of eight years the plum breakfast job as Webb was in sight of celebrating his fifth anniversary.
Webb was moved to Drivetime while station bosses predicted Ms Martin, who'd been on air with Webb for 14 months, would reach the station's target audience of 25 to 39-year-old women.
Webb today said he was pleased to be back but doesn't know if he will have a long term future at the station.
