In case you didn't know Sara Jane Crawford will be leaving BBC radio in october to work in LA.http://radiotoday.co.uk/2015/08/a-dot-to-replace-sarah-jane-crawford-on-1xtra/ I wonder if its because she's dissappointed that Clara Amfo got promoted to fearnes slot instead of her.She was touted as the next big thing in radio a year or 2 ago. What happened?

A senior Tory MP has suggested that Radio One could be axed or sold off to the private sector as part of the scaling back of the BBC http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/bbc/11735525/Future-of-BBC-Radio-1-should-be-debated-warns-Tory-MP-overseeing-charter-renewal.html. Does anyone here think that would be a good idea?

Better make the most of Scott while we can. after Friday week he's off on holiday for a couple of weeks !

starting on Saturday july 25 all the usual specialist shows such as Charlie Sloth ,Phil Taggart and Huiw Stephens will be replaced by special essential mix and other dance music shows in the run up to Ibiza.Pete Tong is taking over the wednesday 10pm slot. The only specialist non dance music DJ who survives the week is Dan P Carter !

Alice Is sitting in for Greg on wednesday

there will be no more changes to radio 1 till next year

Ex radio 1 DJ Tom Deacon has been named as the new host of the breakfast show on Capital Radio with a female co host http://radiotoday.co.uk/2015/07/tom-deacon-and-emma-jo-sign-for-capital/

well I was half right anyway

I thought they were OK. If reports that they are taking over the sunday 4pm slot are true I'm ok with it

Good news .Grimmy is taking a lot of time off to do the X Factor starting on monday july 6 and of course Scott is doing breakfast while he's away. Matt will be doing Scotts show as usual

Scott will be doing breakfast for 3 days from fri jun 26 to tue june 30. Matt is doing afternoons

could b a trial run to see if they would be a suitable replacement for the chart show. new show starts july 19 so they have to announce it soon !

Alarm bells are ringing at radio 1 this morning with the latest RAJARs showing they have lost a million listeners with the breakfast show audience at its lowest point since Sara Coxs final 3 months, and Grimmys lowest ever audience There was already speculation about Grimmys future but these figures now make it hard for him to last beyond this year on breafast http://www.theguardian.com/media/2015/may/21/radio-1-loses-1m-listeners-nick-grimshaw-bbc-4-extra-6-music

I do know that Ben Cooper is not a fan of X Factor.

Grimmys already in trouble for missing his show on monday so they could be looking for an excuse to replace him anyway esp If he has bad RAJARs r I
