Ahhh, possibly better off with online feed then?

Listening now, Huw and Greg seem a slightly odd DJ combo. Is R1 live all the time or are they going live on R1 only for selected performances? Current track doesn't sound live.

R2 Brekkie? Thought Moyles usually second to whoever does that each time ratings published (be it Wogan, Evans etc)

You'd also think the fact that Moyles gets best ratings of all of Radio 1 AND 2nd best of all BBC stations would give them a clue the audience doesn't care too much about age of DJs.

Stuff about it and clips from around 6min mark in this

Oh piss off. I had tried to move on before. you've brought it back when I was talking about the adverts for it and the lineup. If that's not relevant, I don't know what is.

Is it that bad? I'm not watching/listening yet, F1 comes first for me.

The adverts annoy me, they have a headline act they're barely even promoting, at least in the TV Trailers I've seen which emphasise the Urban aspect... if they wanted to emphasise that, have someone like Plan B or Dizzee as your headliner, not Florence and the Machine... or don't book acts like them and Kasabian maybe? Those are the two acts that seem really out of place in the lineup. Why would you book a headliner, mention the headlining when announcing the booking and then barely use them in promotional material?

Radio1 obviously forget how popular John Peel was ACROSS the age ranges within and outside the target audience if they make age a factor... even as a smokescreen.

Again the point has to be made, they moved Mills and used that excuse re: Greg and age, but Moyles remains in his slot? Highly questionable. Would NOT be surprised if there was something else entirely behind all this.

By making a valid and relevant point... and then moving on... Bit annoyed that work have me in work when Florence is on... infact MORE than a bit annoyed as crap like that ALWAYS happens.

Exactly, they'll use the hashtag they want, not what BBC Tells them was my point. Cheers for missing it. Might have a listen to Mills and Moyles if I'm not doing anything later. Work left me a message asking if I could cover a shift on my day off, but balls to them, so should be around.

Another case of BBC trying to control the hashtag, I bet many will 'rebel' like they did against #BBCHIGNFY (just using it without the BBC bit, as they had been doing before BBC Caught on to the trend) and use simply #Hackney.

Moyles has the rep for standing up for himself etc though, which Scott doesn't, Chris isn't a complete Yes-man, and is probably more willing/able to use his ratings as a tool if confronted.

I've been made cynical by life and the people in it constantly being letdowns and backstabbers (literally have to deal with idiots like this every day). Plus I have a point, it's been said many times on here that he won't criticise BBC directly while still working there.

Well that Benjamin Francis Sandwich track was short but sweet... and completely new to me. Nice find *goes off to Spotify to look up*

and many listeners will forget. The alternative is he gets drunk one day and just goes on-air and does a DLT style rant. Awesome as that would be to listen to, it's not going to happen. Also he's too much of a yes-man to go through with something like that as it is, otherwise I get the feeling he would have had something to say about the switch by now.

He's certainly returned that... but in a passive-aggressive way. and saw a lot of tweets like that from before too, so I guess turnabout etc.

It seems in some cases opinion isn't allowed.

Having seen his tweets in question, they were DEFINITELY a complaint. Can we complain about the tweet where he calls us sad and 'pathetic' in this case? Also there have been posts left up on here saying much worse about other members... Just Saying.

I do hate this constant assumption that happens each year on Results day that 'GCSEs are too easy', it's ALWAYS by people who haven't taken them and therefore wouldn't know. This Tory party need to stop living in the past, they also need to tackle bigger problems than celebrities dodging a miniscule amount of tax compared to some corporations doing much worse and also their own MPs doing dodgy crap.

Google + has ONE USP that ALL the others don't: Hangouts. They are awesome and even work with decent quality signal when my connection is having an 'off moment' (most of the time), must be a much better compression algorithm than Skype uses as my Skype is always screwing up. Sadly, they keep also adding in Facebook or Twitter clone features, like Trending and hashtags... they should Focus on Hangouts and the Circles concepts, that's the positives that the others don't have.

I do like the format of pointless, kinda like Reverse Family Fortunes, 100 people surveyed for the answers and the number of people that said that answer = the number of points the contestant gets etc BUT where FF rewarded people for knowing the common answers, the aim of Pointless is to get the Lowest Score (with money being added to a jackpot each time a contestant gets an answer NONE of the 100 surveyed got). The other main difference is it has teams of 2, with 1 eliminated each round rather than just 2 teams. Jake Humphrey and David Coulthard were in one of the few 'Celebrity'* Editions I have watched and they were very good, but I do prefer the regular joe shows. * re: Celebrity editions - as with other such editions of these shows, I end up not even knowing who half the supposed 'celebrities' are, same happened with the Celebrity versions of Total Wipeout.

How Rude!

Same fate as Myspace then... though Myspace keeps trying to reinvent, even if it's done badly.
