I'm still trying to work out who the winner in this is? Dev or Gemma?! I was hoping that Pete Allison would get a crack at it.
Dev is bound to be gutted , feel sorry for him! I think his show worked well on earlies. Moving from 5 shows to 2 even with a slightly better audience is no promotion. I remember when Greg was doing it he said he wouldn't want to swap to weekend breakfast. I think Ben cooper is hard to read so maybe he'll be moved to a better slot again soon. One things for sure I don't think all the truckers will be interested in Gemma's fashion features!!

I would be shocked if Grimmy goes in the next 18 months. Ben Cooper today mentioned his '2 year plan' (which I've never seen mentioned before!) and we're only 2 quarters into the 2 year plan. To me that says Grimmy has 18 months for sure and then they'll reevaluate his position after that.
The most worrying thing for Ben Cooper must be the 200 thousand 15-24s who were listening to Grimmy and have stopped this quarter. The stat given last quarter was that he attracted 250k listeners, losing 200k this quarter in the same demo is bad news.
Do you really think if he kept having bad quarters after each other then the 2 year plan would stay the same? Depends a lot more really on what the younger people do. Its the first time we've seen the breakdown of what age groups are listening. From my few years of reading this forum, Q1 is normally one of the best for Radio 1 with younger people at school, college etc. Wait for Q3 when theres a lot of people on holiday, Moyles usually struggled to keep going then. That could be a hard set of figures to take.
I don't dislike his show but its always female callers, not thats a bad thing but i think that shows the audience he appeals too. I'm 21 and most of my friends have moved on also.
If there was a shake up I could see Greg to breakfast, Nick to Drive time (I think he could get more guests this time of day and would just be easier listening.) I think Sloth might take Scotts place in the schedule in years to come. I think Nick would take drive time rather than being 'chucked back into the night time'!
-
What are your thoughts? Do you think it would be possible to persuade him and the station to do it?
No, that horse has been ridden.....
-
Please someone ask Ben Cooper about the Moyles exit and why something can't be negiotated for his return! I know how unlikely it looks but there aren't many chances to ask!
-
It's very good, He's on top form. Listen if you can....
-
Its the Rocky Theme. Sorry ! Delete the thread if you want to Jono.

Hi,

Thanks Guys !

Sara tweeted yesterday that it must of been a slow news day and a load of rubbish and has just signed to radio 1 for another year....
Now they can't make rubbish up about Moyles they are turning there attention to the stations other older DJ's.
-
Does anyone else think Andy Parfitt, got this sorted before he handed in his notice? To make sure Chris sees out his dream of 10 years on Breakfast?
-
Not going to lie...
After all the build up, I have been so disappointed with this feature !
I thought the challenges might actually be....er....Tough?
-
Looks like shes a freelance dj - presenter - producer.... Just googled her.

The Daily Fail say that Olly Murs has replaced Matt he must be gutted....

Scott just said there off to the Sony Radio Awards tonight.
The website is quite smart if your curious - http://www.radioawards.org/
Would I be right in saying theres another thread with the nominations on?
Any Predictions?!

Can anyone confirm The Sun's source?
Usually not the best when it comes to the truth.

They really are trying different cover presenters in the daytime slots these days. I'm amazed they've got Reggie to do it. Its not very often he would cover for anyone...
-
I can't work out whats happening on the show tomorrow morning (Fri). Aled keeps dropping hints something special is happening. I think someone important might be leaving but then also think they all geniunely love it too much too leave. Surely its not something bigger than that saying the CM show is ending at the end of July. Aled seems to get very emotional about it all. I'm sure it won't be - I think i've been up too long listening to this brilliant show. One of the best things i've heard on Radio 1 ever.......

Just looked at her twitter feed and it appears shes not.
' Very hectic few weeks getting the Pop settled in nursery and me ready to go back to work! Sadly not to show as just can't manage child care 5 days a week plus all those last minute commitments!! I do want to be more mummy than worker too. (Tom not happy to be a house husband!!) Am doing 2 days a week on the BBC News Channel.. '
-
Just seen Carrie presenting the sports news on the bbc news channel at 12.15am which is hardly primetime.
Just wondering if anyone knows if she is going to return to the Chris Moyles Show or not?
-
Again?!
That must be like the sixth time he's been on the show since Greg has started in the Afternooons.
Maybe you can tell he's not my favourite guest...
-
Why have they done this.....
I don't approve!
-
There 12 - 2am show will certainly be one to listen too ! I wonder why there are doing it alone. Whats normally on then?
-
I wonder if they will replace the BBC Introducing that is on Wednesday Evenings? Surely Huw won't bring that to Daytime or in some way?
-
We've seen it coming for a long time!
Just that right chance has come along for her now!
Good Luck Jo and Well Done Huw - the obvious choice i would say as long as features like Huw's Hospital Hour gets put in Greg's Radio Graveyard !
FEARNE'S LEAVING.

I hate to say it but we've found it hard to predict Ben Cooper, ever since he started. Much different style than Andy Parfitt.
I would have put money on Alice getting this show.
A couple of years ago I would have said Nick was a rank outsider at getting Breakfast. Clara is just the same having only done a handful of shows on Radio 1.
Demograhics and the BBC trust seem to be the only things that matter at this station now.
