I don't believe a word of it. The 'conspiracy theories' posted here never seems to stop.
Studio 66 aren't short of night girls. Ella told me she would do more shifts if given them. I bet Emma Butt would too and most likely others as well.
The funny thing is whenever people claim they are short of girls there are always 2 girls on 1 channel at the time. It happened when Lucy was on late. She was on 1 channel and 2 girls had to share the other channel, and yet still people tried to claim that Lucy was only on because they were short of girls.
Whatever Studio 66 do they do for a reason. If they think the popularity of their day girls makes it worth putting them on nights then that's what they'll do. I know they have been asking Evelyn to stay late for ages as she mentioned it to me a long time ago.
Whether this is a good stategy or a bad strategy I don't really know, but it's clear that it's a deliberate policy. The rates these day girls need to stay late means it doesn't come cheap either, although as Evelyn wouldn't do adult chat I imagine her rate wasn't astronomical at least.

Snipped a bit
I think Goodfella puts it pretty well; its a calibre issue. Its the big earners that are the issue (although you may have a point with Ella - she does seem to have a decent fan base). The girls they let go, the current pillaging of XXXpanded, are not in the same category as the Clare, Adele, Hannah, etc. Hell they could stick me on screen if they needed although I think even Snookered would draw the line at calling me up
As for consipiracy theories, well the assertion that S66 may have a strategy would make your average, pot smoking, 1970s, Area 51 fixated, Californian Beach bum glow with pride
