Read our privacy policy Jane Garvey bade goodbye to Woman’s Hour listeners as her time on the BBC Radio 4 series came to an end after 13 years. Speaking on her final instalment of Woman’s Hour, Garvey said: “Genuinely, this has been one of the toughest decisions of my life.” “The reason I'm going is because I could have stayed, and I sometimes think, the hardest thing is to change when it's actually the last thing you want to do, but it's probably the best thing to do.” She added: “Woman's Hour is not just a radio programme, it's one of the radio programmes, and I've had the chance to do it, and it's just been an amazing privilege. But the programme needs to move on, and now it can, and that's good.” Starting next Spring, Garvey will host a new interview programme on BBC Radio 4, with further details forthcoming.
