  3. Dan & Phil Article

    in BBC Radio 1

    Posted

    Dan & Phil Big heads.

    Well Dan & Phil and Radio 1 stop talking down to the "youth" young people listen to parents listen too, then when people go to college, uni or work and start making there own taste in music, entertainment and politics that who Radio 1 should before.

  4. Current Radio 1 Line Up - Your Opinion

    in BBC Radio 1

    I think you people are being very harsh about Dan and Phil. I'm a 28 year old male and I gave them a listen last night and they are really funny lads who can work the desk well and actually play a decent variety of songs. I heard a gorillaz b-side, busted and tyler the creator in the same hour.

    All I would add is I like the show not my cup of tea but thay have a place on Radio 1 but I am hopping that Radio 1 don't think it would work all day everyday. I can't see where they are going to take the show and I like to for Dan & Phil to "grow up" when I say that I would like to see them to stand in for other shows as separate presenters to show they are more then one tick pony.

    Matt Edmondson did not have a radio back ground but I would say has done well, but with Matt he was given time and space to play around with idea on his Wednesday night show and time to build up radio skill covering lots of different show. Alice Levine is the other person that have made the jump from TV to radio this is because she been put with Phil Taggart how know what he is doing I am not sure if Alice is driving the desk yet but from a nervous start she built up the confidence to file solo.

    Dan & Phil have a place at Radio 1 and there show is better then Tom Deacon was, but would say I feel they made a one trick pony and I can't see where Radio 1 are planning to take the show. I would say to Radio 1 keep then where they are and when a slot come free in Daytime (Scott) give it to Matt not Dan and or Phil. On a plus point for Dan and Phil Radio 1 have made then grow-up, they are slowly lossing the names DanIsNotOnFire & AmazingPhil and there video quality and subjects have got alot better.

    Jammela I have nothing good to say about her show so I won't.

    Zane Lowe + Gemma Cairney are so funny together I am loving it. They are chalk and cheese like when Biffy poped in for a chat, Zana talk to then about there new album what a big project it was and where they are going to tour soon and Gemma asked would they take there trousers off on stage...

  8. is Huw Stephens used too much for daytime cover?

    Do you think that Dev will stay with Radio One or start a new career with his uni degree? If he's going to be stuck on earlys much longer I think he might just pack it in.I'm starting to doubt if he'll ever be offered anything better though because he hasn't even covered for any other DJs much lately.He used to sit in for Greg or Scott a lot but not for ages.

    I thing he said on air that that his degree was in media. Dev also dose work within out areas of the BBC such as BBC learning so I guess the only one who knows what he want to do is Dev. Not every DJ will be a Chris Moyles and be a celebrity most DJ's do other work on the side. I would for one like to see more of Dev on Radio 1.

    Saw that this morning that he had finished his degree. Either way there not going to take Grimmy off breakfast or Greg off drive anytime soon

    I was going a long the line that if Nick keep slipping he may have to go, I hope Nick all the best but as the Rajar numbers show it is not Radio 1 doing bad it is reaching 40% of 15 to 24 year olds in one way or other. So my quote was based on if Nick dose not work out, maybe if his listeners numbers are still low in 9 months time Radio may have to do something.

  11. Q1 2013 RAJAR

    in BBC Radio 1

    So if my number crunching is right. Nick lost 907 000 listener going down from 6 691 000 to 5 784 000 were as Radio 1 in total lost only 828 000 going from 11 091 000 to 10 263 000.

    This means if my numbers are right, Nick lost more then the rest of Radio 1 put together... and if you take out the breakfast show Radio 1 put on 79 000 across the rest of the shows... Maybe this is because Nick is new and still settling in but next Rajar he must turn it around.

    Zane + Gemma Cairney should be something!

    Yes it should be, maybe Radio 1 know what they are doing... All I say is one of my top five radio DJ of all time (Zane) with one of my least favorites.

    I am looking forward to Sara and Matt the best of the old guard with the best of the new crop. :)

    Seeing it come up I would keep things the same weekday day time, don't let Fearne back Sara better. As for weekends get Gemma off and try out someone for student radio, Matt Palmer from BayRadio Aberystwyth sounds good see what happends. Get Jamila Jamal off and try out Laura Whitmore and have it a full live radio show with the last hour online and BBC 3. [?? Give Dan and Phil 3 hours 7 to 10 (But tell them it is a radio show first.) and give The Surgery two hours 10 till midnight. ??] Not sure about that last bit.
