The Vamps. Proper whooooooo!!? 

I'd be shocked if they ever worked together again but you never know, a podcast would be great tbh! It works so well for Scott and Chris and could do for these.
How did this get into a thread anyway? Sure I posted it in the shout box thingy.

The problem is with Radio 2 having the 00s stuff, is that they need to grow some balls so to speak. We can't have play it safe Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Will Young all the time. They need to play stuff like Pendulum, Linkin Park, Slipknot. Some of the popular dance and trance stuff too. This is how the 00s was and how we remember it. Otherwise if they don't it still suits Radio 1 better. 

Leave the microphones up and make D.I.Y noises through songs you don't like. 

They are 'OK' but that's about as far as it goes for me, then saying that it's Radio 1 in general now for me anyway. Likewise to the above, when Scott is on I'm tuned into him because his show just suits better. It's more the music that makes me switch about nowdays. 2 when 80s before my time comes on, and 1 when 'gimmie a quid or man will stab ya nan' type grime comes on.

You sure did. You also said you were going to give me 10 grand once I've been registered on here for 20 years. 2 more years... And I can buy 900 bags of pick n mix.

If Ken regards new music as something from 2002 then his time had come I'm afraid. A lot of Radio 2's new music on their playlist is from established artists like Bev Knight, Keane, Simply Red etc. They are even playing a new song from Dolly Parton at the moment. 

Scott and Chris Moyles didn't live in each others pockets but I believe they were on good terms. Chris Moyles contributed to a few things during Scott's drivetime show once or twice. Like the 'busted' call where someone was trying to sell stories of Moyles to the tabloids. And Scott set it up that Moyles exposed the individual involved.

Feels like Greg is being pushed out possibly? Last time I heard him he seems to be doing a good job tbh, better than Grimmy was I gotta say 

It is a bit of a bizarre one. I couldn't imagine back 20 years ago Judge Jules doing a live Radio 1 show and Dave Pearce turning up wasted saying your tunes are pish. Usually all the dance jocks teamed up back then, and told Westwood he was shite.

Ken Bruce's Radio 2 show was too old for me, nothing against him but I never went out of my way to listen. For the first time the other day though I heard his greatest hits show for half an hour. It's just not the same for him, and the limited music and adverts stop him getting into his full flow. It won't last there imo. Vernon is sounding decent, listened to him a fair bit this week. I think he'll grow into that more and more, and this time next year the figures will show it.

Oh Jesus wept, I now recall Chappers being recorded singing that let's have sex song. They should replay that on MOTD for him for old times sake. 

I'm also old enough to remember the Lisa L'anson thing, that was far bigger than this.
I don't mind this really, it's a small telling off and move on. Radio 1 has been ever since I've listened, too nicey nicey at times. Now more than ever. That's why I loved when Moyles for instance back in the day basically said what he thought sometimes about a song. It was entertaining.
No chance in hell every DJ loves every song on the playlist. Not everything is brilliant to everyone as its portrayed on air sometimes. Not saying slag tunes off every show, but if there's something you just don't get the appeal of it makes good radio to say what you think.

When I still remember the original flirt divert number. 07774598750. Wonder if it's worth a call now? Maybe get through to 92 year old Doris in Scarborough who's recently inherited that number. 

I'm old enough to remember when Adele and Andi Durrant were the last voices to be heard on Galaxy. Until Capital came along and ruined it.

Does he do a good radio show and entertain people? Think that's kind of what really matters here.
He may or may not be. But even if he is, it's probably not his style to keep bringing it up and throwing the fact at people in every link. Someone's sexuality has way too much fuss and focus these days anyway imo, people can possess other qualities too. It's not all about what and who they are attracted to, infact it's entitled to be a private matter for them anyway.

I don't know from memory. But if the date can be tracked down I'm sure we would have clipped it out or I may have the show itself recorded.
 
EDIT: I've found it! 1st May 2007, the story was Laura went commando at the Sony Radio Awards the night before. Couple of mentions I've found are at the 2hr 10min mark (after Mylo/Miami Sound Machine), and at 2hr 15mins as well. There could be more about but I spotted those, he just puts us down as "the unofficial website". Backstory on it starts around 25 mins in.
Couple of website screenshots from the day itself as well. I've used my amazing mspaint editing skills to clean it up, as apparently we are more tasteful in 2023 than 2007. And are a Radio 2 family site now.
