Nicky Keig-Shevlin (born January 1, 1963) is a radio presenter who has spent the majority of her career working for Brighton based independent station Southern FM (formerly Southern Sound). She presents the weekday breakfast show with Danny Pike ('Danny and Nicky in the Morning'). Nicky lives in Hove with her husband (and former Southern FM presenter) Richard Reynolds. Reynolds was axed from the station in October 2003 as part of a re-fresh in an attempt attract younger listeners to the station.
In the late 1980s Nicky co-presented a late Sunday evening show on Southern FM with Tommy Boyd. The format of the show was phone-in/quiz style with the occasional record thrown in - 'Two Little Boys' by Rolf Harris and 'Narcissus' by Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band ("Hey, you have the same trouble with your trousers I do!" etc.) being two that featured regularly. Other than simply being a great bit of light-entertainment, the main aim of the show was to make the weekend last longer before the majority of listeners had to endure the Monday morning return to school or work. Each show ended with the playing of "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong.
Monday June 9, 2008, Nicky announced[1] that she would be 'hanging up her headphones' after an extensive career that has spanned over two decades at the Southern FM radio station. Nicky's last day on air will be Thursday, June 19, 2008.
