  1. Asian Network and 6Music to close?

    in BBC Radio 1

    Posted

    radio 3 a niche ?

    classic fm is a far better station (i know this because i listen to it) its a much fresher sound & more engaging to younger listeners there is also a better line up of dj's on classic, radio3 on the other hand is just so old & stale sounding, the bbc isn't supposed to be competing with commercial stations which is exactly what radio3 is doing with classic.

    as for radio4, well i don't watch any soaps on tv so im not going to listen to them on the radio, comedy programs well lighthearted stuff won't do much for me, now it it were like mock the week or had stewert lee, chris rock or milton jones doing comedy then i may listen, cannot believe people who need to listen to the shipping forecast ie sailors still use it when they have all this technology at hand to give upto the second information (my grandad used to be a sailor & he had access to this) the fact is that radio4 costs a huge amount to run & it seems to me that the bbc is more & more being aimed at old people.

    surly you know how much i support the bbc & don't want anything cut from it, but these are my views from my perspective, cutting 6music & asian network to save six million pounds, well why not just cut radio3 & 4's budget by three million each ?

    everyone is saying that 6music & asian network shouldn't close but how are you going to save the money ? at least i'm saying what i would cut to save money.

    :L :D

    The News Quiz on Radio 4 is very similar to Mock The Week. Milton Jones has his own series on Radio 4.

    The annoying thing about BBC3 and BBC4 are, with the amount of good new material they produce each week, they could easily merge to save costs, but with both channels being so very different branding would be impossible!

    BBC4 have been ordered away from comedy, too in this new report apparently :(

    I hope Charlie Brooker finds a new home!!!

  5. Matt Edmondson to cover for Sara Cox on BBC Radio 1

    I like The Lie in and hope it continues, even for an hour. Dick and Dom made a point of saying they picked the tunes when they did it and music wise I think The Lie in was at its strongest when Dick and Dom were at the helm.

    *Awaits barage of abuse*

    I prefered Vern's music tbh. I prefer Sara format wise (even when not live!) but the music does lean towards the cheesy side a bit too often for my liking.

    I don't mean to moan buuuuuttt it isn't, wasn't and never will be pronounced Banger!

    Ban - as in he has had a lifetime ban from football

    G - as in the start of Great

    or - as in ice cream OR cream

    It'll sound a bit posh from the English but since most of them can't roll their r's it'll have to do :P just please, please not banger.

    Moyles' pronunciation was good (enough :P) this morning fair play.

  21. James King for Film 2010?

    in BBC Radio 1

    I think that the BBC will axe 'Film' once Ross goes, it's being shown at silly times, they're probably only seeing the contract out. If they do bring in a new presenter Kermode has to be the favourite though, James King has a chance and Alex Zane would be my outside bet.
