  1. The podcast further builds on the thought that Katie was not part of original line up for schedule change. It is very clunky PR initially announcing a two person show and then a week later changing to a 3 presenter show, which makes me believe they hopefully reacted to the audience feedback and gave Katie this role, deservedly. If this was always part of the plan they would not have announced Vick’s co hosts until later. I’m hoping Jamie will be good and wish him the best of luck, but it pains me that they have to bring in non-radio talent when there must be so many people out there who want a break in mainstream radio. History demonstrates presenters like Jordan, Scott, Greg etc who started out on student radio certainly have more longevity at the station than these who don’t, e.g. Maya Jama and Jameela Jamil.
  2. End of an era! Thank you for all the truly laugh out loud moments, the sensitive moments, the caring moments, the empathetic moments and the outrageous moments. Thanks mainly for just being two guys that so many people could relate to on the radio and have a joke with them and not at them. It was a special time in radio and will be sorely missed! Love you bye! Harry
  3. Is there any news on which daytime shows are going to have to be broadcast outside of London?
  4. It's such an end of an era having Nick and Annie leave. Some of my favourite R1 memories are stories with those two, or at Glastonbury. I wonder if he is going to change career - I believe wasn't it interior design or set painting which he was interested in?
  5. Whats the deal with Sideman, now that Charlie Sloth has disappeared in a puff of smoke? Does he have a permanent contract with R1? I just assumed he was paid freelance and would go with CS?
  6. I do wonder how it works with staffing with some producers having 1 show a week , or 2 for weekends and others having 4 for week daytime shows? Do the weekend producers have to come in in the week and work on other shows? Or do the producers at weekends produce multiple shows?
  7. Her bio also says Producer now so maybe she's just been promoted? Which is why she's left Scotts show?
  8. Does anyone have a download of Greg's last show at all please? Many thanks, Harry
  9. Does anyone have a download of Greg's last show please? (both parts) The method I had to download shows isnt working any more! Many thanks in advance, Harry
  10. It really is quite a bizarre schedule change really, adding so much but without losing anyone. It is strange to have a co-host on nearly every show. There are 9 presenters on at the weekend now (10 if you count Dr Rhada) as opposed to a core of 4 required, which seems very over crowded. In the press release they are really pushing Maya Jama as the big winner here, with making her the press photo, and giving her a co-host with Scott for 1 midweek day (...how very random!), which is again another surprise for Jordan to be slightly sidelined after being used so frequently by Radio 1. We shall wait and see. Its almost like they want to make big changes but don't have the guts to fire anyone! I'm disappointed that Alice is getting a worse show, and having to co-host, as she is such a genuinely funny presenter.
  11. Did anyone record any of R1 Vintage? I love the initial 1 countdown before the Tony and Grimmy show - so many brilliant soundbites. Does anyone have a downloaded copy of it please? Many thanks.
  12. I remember that show that Moyles did - I wouldn't exactly say that "in the olden days Moyles would have covered it". It was a complete one off and remember Chris joking that he was something like 7th to be asked!
  13. Am I being really stupid....but what is TOH and BOH? Thanks in advance.
  14. I think the Ke$ha incident was wayyyy before Greg James started.
