Dave Bussey

He was born in Drayton, Norfolk and grew up in Norwich, attending a secondary modern school.

He joined BBC Radio Lincolnshire, taking over from John Inverdale in 1986.

A spokesman for the BBC said: "There have been no compulsory redundancies at Radio Lincolnshire but some presenters are leaving the station as part of a wide-ranging package of scheduling changes."

Bussey returned to BBC Radio Lincolnshire in 2014 taking over the 1-3pm slot on a Sunday from Judy Theobald.

Bussey lives in rural Lincolnshire (in Willingham By Stow) and plays in local golf matches.
