Thanks Eddie, I'll give that a go and see what happens. Can you perhaps explain to me why the SQL Backup GUI does not add this option in ? Having a setting in the GUI for removing the old files that doesn't actually remove the files seems a bit pointless. Cameron / comments

Sorry Matthew - I should have posted my update... The issue was that the server that was taking ages to complete was doing the nightly backups as well as 15 minute backups for DR etc. The backup history was never being truncated so it was taking an age to update it. Once I truncated the backup history and am keeping that under control, the backup completes in a few minutes as expected. BTW - it was SQL Server job history that was reporting the 48 minute job time. Thanks, CJ / comments
