Another added: "Well done @vernonkay, I wasn’t convinced when you took over, but you’re doing a fantastic job. Keep it up."
Vernon was announced as the replacement for Ken Bruce in Radio 2's mid-morning slot back in February and made his debut in the hosting chair in May.
Ahead of his debut, Vernon admitted he was apprehensive about replacing Ken, who had held the mid-morning slot for 31 years.

“The longer I wait, the more tricks my mind is starting to play on me. I’ve done nothing but listen to Ken. That vibe, that atmosphere he can create, it is so good,” he said (via The Belfast Telegraph).
“I don’t think there’s anyone in British broadcasting who can put together a funny, entertaining information-packed anecdote in five sentences like him. It takes me five minutes.”
However, Vernon also admitted he "didn’t even think about" saying yes once he was offered the job.
Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturdays and Sundays on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
Tickets for Strictly's 2024 live arena tour are available now.
