Enjoyed this morning's show, it had all the crucial ingredients, although it didn't really seem to get going til after 8:30!
James Corden was spot on when he said the show was like "a group of friends, every morning, who never exclude you; you start getting people's personalities, and the more you listen the more you become part of it...".
Thoroughly not looking forward to the sound of tomorrow morning's Cheesy Song :-(
-
Agreed Viv, Tulisa was really good, and her impression of Louis Walsh is superb!! Alan Carr was brilliant, and twice as funny when you can watch him in action...
Intrigued to see how they handle the final 5mins of the final show on Friday, listening to it is definitely going to be a 'where were you when' moment...really good they're handing over to Sara Cox though.
Which just leaves the question of where to 'enjoy' said final show; at home, outside Radio 1 or watching one of these big screens Aled's encouraging us not to...!
-
Is it or me or is this final week being made even harder by them having some really brilliant guests on?! And by being able to watch them on the webcams, which is ridiculously addictive...I'm no fan of F1 but Jake Humphrey was really good this morning. As was Rachel.
Anybody have any ideas who might be on tomorrow morning...? Alan Carr? James Corden? Jonathan Woss?

Well said DC. I've only been listening to Moyles since 2005, but I really regret not listening to him when he was on afternoons. I was probably too busy listening to Steve Wright...
Must admit I'm really not looking forward to their last show at all, weekday mornings will never quite be the same! Their opening half hour was the best half hour on radio anywhere, the way they turned trivial nonsense into hilarious radio was genius. Aled's story a while back about being 'given permission to speed by the police' on the motorway, then parodied by Chris as 'PC Aled' comes to mind...
Grimmy's going to have his work cut out, although not as much as Matt Fincham is...
-
If you didn't hear it, Grimmy's tribute to Amy Winehouse on his show last night is well worth listening to. At the very least it's from someone who actually knew her...
It's at about 10:00. Can't say I was a fan of hers, or her music, but by anyone's standards 27 is bloody young to be biting the dust...

If you didn't hear this live you've got to listen again, soooo funny!!
You can tell things are going to go downhill fast when Annie uses the phrase "it's time to give you a light at the end of your tunnel..."

If nothing else it's a definite contender for the next edition of Innuendo Bingo...

Great news! When does it start, is it this Friday? And can you listen to Radio 105 online...? Guess I should Google it...

I myself will be spending the day knitting a corgi.

What better way to mark the occasion?
-
Edith will be having a look at the royal romance - how Kate + her Prince came to be together in Fife, where Edith herself originally hails from!! :hahaha:
Edith says we have to look out for an ad for this coming soon on TV!!
You have got to be having an actual giraffe.
Seriously, the woman couldn't present a radio show to save her life, and now she's doing a TV prog for which the phrase 'scraping the barrel' doesn't even come close. Clearly her weekdays are a bit empty these days...
-
Spare a thought for Zane too who had to interrupt his prog several times to get an update on Scott/Katy P, even tho it had nothing to do with him or his show...you could tell he was gagging to take the p*** out of the whole feature!!
-
Poor Beccy sounds so nervous!! Still think she could pull off the best show out of the four of them tho...
Anyone else going to try and get tickets for Scott tomorrow night? Just got to try and second guess where Beccy will be handing them out!!

First post!
Goldfish trick v cool and KT Tunstall v cool, but was it just me or did Fawlty Towers not really work?!
Who's on board this morning?
in BBC Radio 1

Listening / watching for the last time. Final cheesy song at 06:30 was a masterpiece. Paul the voiceover guy was really good too...reality is definitely hitting home.
