  1. I thought from the trailers it was a celebration of the best of the last 5 years? granted, i've not been listening to absolutely everything this afternoon but this morning i was and I'm dipping in and out while tending to an injured girlfriend and I've only heard stuff from the last year. Were the trailers meaning that 2008 was the best year and it would be highlights of that or did I misinterperate what was said?

  2. Does anybody know when Scott's next show is on? I've had a look at the schedule on R1's website and it seems to be nihal on breakfast next week, or have I misunderstood something on the site?

    I was under the impression Scott was covering for Chris for the 3 weeks he was off, yet from what I can see the 4 hardest working men in radio (Nihal, Greg, Chappers and Dave) seem to be the ones that are on most of the time

  3. the only reason I'd have bought peter kay's song was to burn it. I bought the JB version of hallelujah, purely because I think alexandra off of x factor is irritating and her song is very shrieky.

    Heres 1 for those who like a challenge (although it may have already been answered)...

    Have 2 versions of the same song ever both charted in the top 2 at the same time before? or did we experience a pretty unique event last weekend?

  4. Someone at school was telling me how their friend got dumped just before christmas and I quoted Scott about the present thing but apparently they're still exchanging gifts. I find this rather odd, wouldn't you give it to someone else to save having to buy them a gift?

    I'm probably wrong here, but isnt there a possibility that the presents were bought pre-dumping?

  5. Why is it a shame?

    I just think its a shame because he's a brilliant DJ and i listen to him a lot (i get woken up by him in the mornings and hear him at work/driving into work) and obviously the early risers like myself are the only people who generally get to hear him unless he's covering for scott when he's covering for chris/on holiday.

    He's a man who clearly loves his job and puts a lot of work in so it would just be nice to think that more people could listen to him instead of missing out

  6. Yet more dedication to the big show there.

    I think its a huge shame he's on when he is, he'd be very good on during the daytime. i'll definitly be listening to this, but i think it'll be on the headphones as i'll be having 2 christmases this year and will no doubt have plenty rubbish tv to watch

  7. to be honest its like saying having a cold is better than having the flu, its not as bad but its still nowhere near ideal.

    Several people I know, including myself, feel like Jo needs to stop latching onto anything that young people like in a desperate bid to delay ageing

    Sara, while a LOT better than before the second baby, really needs to stop the irritating silly voice she puts on from time to time as it just makes her sound simple. The silly voice works when vernon does it, i dont think it works at all with sara.

    having said that they're still a damn sight better than the verbal diahorrea that comes out the Edinburgh stations and XFM

  8. Chappers and Dave are absolute legends. Ok so the show seems to be the most badly put together thing on R1 but thats what makes it so funny, 3 and in springs instanty to mind ;) Personally I feel sorry for Dave the most because he's on breakfast every day at the moment but if it wasnt for that I'd have them on every day.

    Hopefully Grimeshaw will get 2 weekends in, the bosses will realise their mistake and he will be gone from R1 for good. Come back Wes all is forgiven

  9. no I know they're still there but I remember not that long ago it was just Greg on his own, Chappers might have been doing the sport and beccy producing but as far as I recall they didnt really play their usual parts they do when scott's in. However if its the 3 of them then hopefully that'll provide enough banter and shenanegans for a podcast

  10. Looking forward to Greg over the next coupld of weeks. Although Scott is the man, its nice for Greg to be let loose during daylight hours for more than a day at a time. Does anybodsy know if Mark and Beccy will be on with him as well like the other week, or is he gonna be goin it alone like his early breakfast show?

    All I can say is I'm eternally grateful that R1 got Max back from 1Xtra and didnt stick nick bloody grimshaw on like they did once before, listening to teh radio at work was sheer hell when that happened

    The only downside is no daily podcasts (unless they fancy doin it just for us ;)) cos they're ideal when theres nothing on the tv
