    With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments.

    She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.

    I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days

    No chance Zoe will cover breakfast. Would be a surprise to see her covering any weekday show tbh.

    Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now

    Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.

    Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 

  4. Talking on this - I wonder who Scott's main cover will be, we have had OJ Sara and Mark in for him now since he took over? curve "ball" would Zoe become the cover now she's established back on weeeknds? or do you think they are easing Sara back into it ready for a two week holiday in Summer? Sara was the main cover for Evans's tenure and got dropped when Zoe took over for Fearne then Nikki and Gaby they seem to have moved away from this "outsider" coming in to cover and especially now not Gaby or Nikki as they have other gigs

    Ahh thank you! That sounds a correct haha. I don’t think it’s very clearly recorded 🫠

    thanks, I can now singalong in full each day!

    It's a good package but sung by the House Gospel Chior so they can always resing a bit of it I wonder if it will get a refresh for 2026? Zoe's seeemed to be refreshed every year although in her tenure stayed as the same theme and of course he will have Christmas versions

    I think Greg will be around for a long time - I reckon the inner geek wants to break Moyles record then go on for ten years and maybe quit in 2028 

    He'll for sure be there for the next birthday celebration in 2027 to host a special breakfast show

    I’m not sure about Greg but possibly Pete Tong eventually. Dean I reckon will go to 5 live or to Ulster

    Glastonbury - 27th June Update

    1pm-4pm is Jeremiah Asiamah and Alyx Holcombe from Glastonbury.

    9pm-12am is Alyx Holcombe with The 1975 set live.

    Glastonbury - 29th June Update

    1pm-4pm is Sam and Danni from Glastonbury.

    I see Charlie is listed on Dance Anthems on that day but she is doing her "All the anthems" show in Brighton 230-730pm so either will be more Glastonbury coverage or Connor

    Mark Goodier is presenting the breakfast show next week, with OJ Borg on the afternoon show and Phil Williams on overnights all week.

    Seems Spoony has had brain surgery over Christmas. Hope he is ok. Nice to see OJ has some weekday cover slots as well. Wonder if Mark will be the go to cover now with Scott? Gary in for Vernon as well.

    Grimmy in for Rylan on Saturday 4th January 

    Week Commencing 6th January 

    Gary Davies is still in for Vernon

    Edith Bowman in for Jo Whiley

    Spoony is 'in' for Trevor Nelson. I'm not sure whether that means he's finished on Rhythm Nation by this point, but I'm surprised Spoony is covering what is effectively his own slot so close to him taking over with The Good Groove. It also means someone else will be covering the afternoon show... Hopefully OJ Borg.

    Maybe they havent adjusted the schedule pages yet but that could be the first week of the new shows, Breakfast and Afternoons are not labelled

    I see Gaby is covering breakfast so I assume she is covering the following week as well and Scott starts on like the 6th or something? do you remember when Zoe started it was like the 2nd or 3rd of Jan 2019 wasn't it?

    Take that back was 14th January so maybe there will be 2/3 weeks of Gaby covering

    Steffan Powell (former Radio 1 Newsbeat presenter/newsreader) is sitting in for Owain Wynn Evans on New Year's Day/2nd/3rd January.

    A few other schedule changes going into December:

    Shaun Keaveny in for Liza Tarbuck tonight (30th November)

    Tina Daheley in for Jeremy Vine on Tuesday 3rd December

    Jason Mohammed in for Owain on Friday 6th December.

    Romesh off again next week (7th) so Emma Willis sits in

    Nick Grimshaw in for Rylan on Saturday 14th, 21st and 28th (I assume he's in the following Saturday as well with Rylan still in Panto).

    I see Gaby is covering breakfast so I assume she is covering the following week as well and Scott starts on like the 6th or something? do you remember when Zoe started it was like the 2nd or 3rd of Jan 2019 wasn't it?

    I wonder if our Gregory and our Mills will be popping out for a coffee together over the next few weeks?

    I bet they have seen each other in the kitchen when songs are playing

    Althogh Greg is on until 11 at the moment and Scott is on until 0930 so he will be home before Greg finishes

    Interesting they have only now let him cover, I can only imagine that this is trying Scott out as permenent cover or Gabby Roslin and Gary Davies are not about

    Maybe they will now use Scott (hoping so) going forward for breakfast cover ala R1 and someone else like Gary or OJ or Spoony covers 2-4 all the time, which would make sense going back to the Evans era for the first time when Sara was the permenent cover

    Something tells me that Sara will get breakfast next because she hasn't covered in Zoe's time at all

  14. Heard a bit of Connor in the car just now sounding good but does he have to costantly remind us he is in for Charlie? we KNOW it is her show

    IMO Chalie is winding down with Dance Anthems Connor is being lined up

  15. Myself 7 - 10 LOL (I do a breakfast show in fact I am on air weekdays from 7am to 3pm but it's a bit narcassistic listening to myself, so I will say 7-10 because that is when I am likelt to be live if I am so I am kinda forced to)

    I've just listened to thr 1st hour of the show and seems to be more music and less chat but as he doesn't have features yet it makes sense.

    Hopefully he will do well as he's a good presenter but needs time to work out the correct games and features for that time of day

     

    Surely he could have just carried on beat or repeat? unles Arielle is taking that to R1D. What he should do is a feature that gets the brekfast presenter involved about 0640, something like bangers and play the track at 650.

  17. Yeah it was a bit messy in the old days - you would have at least 6 weeks of Scott and chris covering for Moyles/Grimmy in the year, as well as odd days, so many times specially during the Grimmy era they were called last minute to swap into Breakfast

    Then theywould both have about 6-7 weeks of a year as well, and many times not together so if Chris was off Scott would do the show solo and if Scott was off Chris would work with Matt, Alice, Jordan etc

    Many times Scott would start his own leave after two weeks on Breakfast as well so you would get 4-5 weeks of no Scott on drive or lunchtime

    I worked out just on the standard leave quota Scott was not on his own slot for three months a year plus any ad hoc days Grimmy used to call in sick, take a short notice day off etc (the one i remember vividly was the one where Grim was injured in the football match on the Sunday)

    I wonder if those Charlie Hedges dance anthems will be repeats of the ones on Saturdays or new programmes. She’s posted on Instagram so I wonder if they’ll be new editions.

    Suspect it will be new editions but not live and interactive

    Just a loads of blocks of classic anthems with Charlie recording links at 15 min intervals maybe which is a 5 min job after her weekday show - or a couple hours on a Friday maybe when they are not working

     

    I expect Arielle to be live 9-12 weekdays but Dannys DP Warm up suspect will be a recorded show

    The two larger studios either side of the Live Lounge are 82A (aka 82Mills) and 82D.  The 4 smaller ones nearby are 82B, C, E & F.  The brand new ones are nearby on the 8th floor and are 82K, L, M & N.  All of the London-based R2 and 6M shows are coming from the 8th floor, some in the new studios and some in the original ones.  Obviously there are a lot of shows that come from elsewhere in the country such as Birmingham, Salford and Cardiff, but any in London come from the 8th floor.

     

    In terms of R1 at the moment:

     

    82A - Greg James, Danny Howard, Jeremiah Asiamah

    82B - Early Breakfast Mon-Fri, Dan P Carter, Sarah Story, Charlie Tee

    82D - RMC, Going Home, Future Artists, Future Pop, Rave Up, 13.00-16.00 Fri-Sun

    82E - Official Chart, Chillest Show

    82F - Dance Anthems, Kenny Allstar, Indie Show

    82N - New Music Show

    Salford - Dean & Vicky, Danny Beard, Nat O'Leary, Life Hacks

    Cardiff - Sam & Danni

    Obvs - Scott 2-4 and Trevor Nelson are also in 82A
