It was presented by the actress and radio presenter JoAnne Good. The show was broadcast from Sunday to Thursday from 10 pm to 2 am. The show had originally been broadcast Monday to Friday until 2011.
From 25 November 2012, the first of many changes took place on BBC London 94.9. Good moved from The Late Show to the Afternoon Show, replacing Danny Baker. The Late Show is now hosted by Simon Lederman who is Goodo's co-host on Saturday Breakfast on BBC London 94.9. Some of her late show features have been incorporated into the afternoon show.
Since leaving the weekday late show, Good has annually presented the New Years' Eve party on the same station.
The Late Show with Joanne Good was first broadcast on Monday 11 January 2010. It was a live, late night show from 10 pm until 2 am on BBC London 94.9.

Sunday Night Sessions: 10 pm – 12 am
The Late Show's first Sunday broadcast was on 2 January 2011. On Sundays, local and independent bands come onto the show and perform their original music. After hearing the artists perform, Good and a panel of judges give their critiques. This segment has become popular. The first show had live music from 'Madam' and Jonny Eyden. In addition, each Sunday Tony Blackburn sent Dan Roberts ("Dan Dan the dating man") to the BBC record library to re-discover songs that have been in the archive for some time.
Monday - Wednesday: 10 pm – 12 am
Monday to Wednesday, the Late Show's first segment has celebrity guests (such as Bill Buckley, Stephen Less and Bibi Lynch) and local entrepreneurs talking in a roundtable setting about their personal lives, the theatre and arts, current events and general gossip.
