Happy Birthday, Simon Mayo! May your day be filled with more joy than Mark Kermode reviewing a five-star film and fewer mishaps than the infamous "Hello to Jason Isaacs" shout-outs. Your voice has been the soundtrack of countless commutes, making traffic jams bearable and movie debates legendary.From being crowned Radio Broadcaster of the Year by the Broadcasting Press Guild to effortlessly steering us through Drivetime on BBC Radio 2—your wit remains sharper than ever. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much delight as discovering an unexpected cinematic gem or finally pronouncing tricky actor names correctly first time round!
