Mr Mills is saving us all for the next three mornings whist Mr Grimshaw is in Italy.  That means for three days only we get the intro back which Grimmy seems to have completely gotten rid of now :/ (he started today's show with a TOH ID, which kind of takes the excitment out of the whole 'It's 6:33 now it's time for the Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Nick Grimshaw' from Tina.) 

In other news Mr Edmonson is in 1-4 for Scott.

It actually annoys me that Grimmy has got rid of the opener, and a lot of the beds from the package too! It's the flagship show and also signals the start of the day, it deserves to have the epic opener and standout sound that was created for it! The fact that Scott has gone back to using the original opener is great, it would be even better if he started using some of the beds again, like these new ones that were made for example!

That's because Radio 1 in Ibiza is next weekend - so Grimmy is hosting the breakfast show live from there. I presume sometime soon after that we'd have a longer stint from Scott and Chris.

So Scott and Chris are on Breakfast this week and as always I look forward to it. Random banter, great music from yesteryear and today, and and early edition of Real Or No Real at 7:15am! But if there's one thing I look forward to the most and even more than ever now, it's the opening. With the same music as Grimmy's show (yes, THAT theme that he ditched to play random shizzle each morning now...buerk :grrr:), I still can't believe that nearly 2 years after they were ditched, the 2012 VO of "The Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Scott Mills" is still used - it's the one created for Grimmy's takeover in September 2012. It still sounds great, however these days I've noticed they don't use the TOTH jingles anymore like they used to, these were ditched about a year ago.

Enjoy Scott and Chris' opening - it's effortlessly brilliant. They have clearly prepared things to say, engage with their audience well. A severe lack of 1Tros on the show today which was a shame, and the 2012 VOs sound dated and messy (as discussed before, I'm sure a "with Scott Mills" won't cost too much to be voiced up). 

Hate to be the one to say it - but I'm not sure that they're actually suited to breakfast. Something about them doesn't scream "breakfast radio" at me, and I'm not sure what that is. 

Also nice to hear Simon Munday & Chris Smith with the news (pun intentional), but nothing beats Tina.

      Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe

      Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.

      To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday?

      It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week.

      Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!

      There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?

      Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.

      Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters

      Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.

      Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.

      Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.

      Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.

      Jordan North's first Capital Radio breakfast show

      By AndyK77 · Posted

      Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
