Ahead of his shock exit from The Dermot and Dave Show, Dermot opened up about what made the show successful, dealing with grief and loss off air, and the key to making things work so well

Dermot Whelan thinks it is amazing that he and his friend and long-time co-presenter Dave Moore lasted 21 years working successfully on radio.

Why did it worked so well for 21 years? Dermot said: "We also don’t go drinking together and that is the key. We managed to avoid that over the years." "The studio has always been a sanctuary for us and we tend to take things day by day and enjoy that time with each other." "Thankfully, the studio is a place where we can distract ourselves from what is happening in our lives and also get support from each other or the listeners.

"Some days it is harder to put on a brave face than others, but as long as you are honest with your listener, with each other and the team then it’s easier to get through these life events."Today FM's Dermot Whelan's family life with wife Corrina and three kids Owen, Matthew and Rose
