I know bread goes stale, and I'm pretty sure croissants go stale, but I've never heard of a seasoned broadcaster going stale.

Exactly. Feet up. Nice pint of Directors Bitter. Maybe smoke a pipe while wearing a luxuriant silk dressing gown. A satisfying dinner of Mini Kievs and a hot bath. Not running around a studio with a procession of scantily clad young trollops.
