Radio 1 to launch a new dance station on BBC Sounds.
https://radiotoday.co.uk/2020/02/bbc-radio-1-dance-to-launch-on-bbc-sounds/
So it's just repeats of Dance Anthems and the Friday stuff etc on a constant stream or is it on demand? you pick what to listen to? seems like reaction to Heart Dance

Alice is off for the next 7(!) weeks and so I’m assuming Dev will be flying solo.
Also,
• Cel Spellman is in for Arielle on Early Breakfast on Friday
I think we are safely in a scenario now where the weekday presenters do not cover weekends at all, I remember Scott and Greg would always appear covering weekend shows weekends are self covering with the duets negating the need for a weekday presenter to create an extra fee maybe or using someone from other stations

A local paper is reporting the council have approved Radio 1's Big Weekend in Dundee.
I heard a trail on Adele's show this morning about 0455 (yes I was up that early driving to work) with Greg starting to announce it then Jordan butting in saying "Not yet Greg"
-
Yeah me too and we could try to see if Scott and Chris would come for a drink as well

Amazing idea
Shal we try to arrange it for 2020

So what will you be listening to NYE??
For me it's Scott then Charlie then Scott on Radio 2 overnight maybe Jordan before, however my local community stations are both doing "party" shows live until 1am as well, so feel should be loyal to them when they are only usually live until 9 or 11pm then voice tracked or just music overnight - considering someone is giving up their time on one of the two to host a show from 7pm to 1am, the other has it's usual Rock show up to 10pm then the party show is on

Mollie would be dreadful on her own. they only trust her to present 1/2 hour a week-shows how much faith they have in her.
She has done a weekday breakfast solo IIRC but the next time Matt was off Jordan was with her

For Radio 1 they don’t tend to announce cover, the average listener couldn’t care less so it’d just be a service for us lot.
No I know - But seeing as Scott has been breakfast Dep for 20 years i'd have thought they would have marked it
-
I think Jordan getting drive is an almost done deal
what annoyed me was there was no formal notice that Scott was no longer breakfast cover, no celebration, no announcement just changed and that was that

I love Dev and Alice and think they’re the best on the station at the moment, but I think that’s the problem, that neither of them would probably be able to commit to a weekday slot as they’d both be off for half the time.
I can see them taking over Scotts show if he went to R2 full time
I think Scott is still the "backup" because he has covered a few times, specially when Greg was kidnapped and did a runner with Grimmy and is still doing NYD, so maybe M&M is prime cover and Scott is now 2nd cover
Dev and Alice, no yes they are great but they function far better later in the day
I would like to see Jordan dep on his own for Greg personally - how about this for a curve ball - Grimmy depping lol
Has potential to happen if no one else was available
Sara Cox did for Moyles after she was kicked off breakfast

I think this will most likely be a year of transition and change for Radio 1. We’ll hopefully see innovation in terms of distribution on demand, reaching the target audience in the ways they consume content. I think we’ll almost certainly see some schedule changes to the linear station, Breakfast will stay another year easily, there needs to be a weekend shuffle, with some fresh talent coming through, and some tired talent either moving to weekdays, or going. Weekdays, Clara could stay another year, but the show certainly sounds very tired and there are people that could step up. RMC almost certainly need a promotion. Scott and Chris, I’m very doubtful they’ll continue, it’s time to move on, they both have many prospects and the station needs to evolve. Nick could easily shift from Drive as Clara could from Mids, but we’ve been wrong about that before. It’s either going to be a year of big change, which I think is needed to keep the brand and the station fresh, or a year of stasis and slowly declining audiences. Ben Cooper goes in the new year, so that leads a path for fresh management. Time will tell.
I think the new Controller POP will want to make her mark on the schedule specially as she has Control of 2 and 6 music as well, meaning she can influence and shuffle the pack
Adele - 4 years in slot, maybe time for someone new and shift her to weekends? replace Maya or D&A with her
Greg - safe pair of hands on breakfast, will last longer on breakfast plus it will be sport relief this year again, so what's he gonna do this time?? could be a massive year for him
Clara - 5 years in slot - time to move on tired although she clearly reads forums etc as she made a comment Thursday "we're continuing next year despite sceptics" or something on her last show of the year if she went, either Annies slot or 6 music could be a good home for her
Scott/Chris - almost 8 years in slot (April will be 8 ) I think they will stay and make it 8 then that will be that, maybe a mega last show, maybe a marathon show? maybe a week devoted to Mills from 1998 to today on R1, although I think it will only be the end of lunchtimes, he'll stay as Chart host replaced potentially by Dev and Alice? can't see Jordan getting it as he is lined up for drive clearly
Grimmy - I think another year of him on drive at least unless Scott goes and they move him to lunchtimes and he's just been a caretaker between Greg and Jordan
Annie - safe as houses
RMC - going nowhere, apart from Breakfast after Greg
Jack - safe as houses
M&M - safe for another year I would say pretty new show still
Maya - get RID and Give Adele her shows
Jordan - destined for peak weekday slot just biding time 0
Dev and Alice - replace Scott or RMC??
MistaJam - safe as houses with his Dance Anthems show
Kel and Katie - not sure here, I thought Katie had other commitments but she seems to have done alot of R1 recently so maybe shes getting a bigger show
-
some stuff that's on now
Monday 23/12
M&M on breakfast for Greg
Harpz Kaur in for Scott and Jordan in for Grimmy
Christmas Eve
Matt on breakfast solo
Dev in for scott
Jordan in for Grimmy
Daytime looks blank for the new talent
NYE Scott is on 1-5 then Radio 2 later, Charlie 5-9 and Jordan 9-1, all doing party anthems
All shows have Scott's pic
New Years Day is Matt on breakfast, Jordan on drive
Katie shows as Earlies so Adele must be off until new year after the jungle

Probably been covered before, but seeing as he is taking over most BBC national stations at the moment (something Radio today said as a joke on the podcast a few weeks ago)
What if Scott had got R1 breakfast? when would he have got it? would it have been in 2012? how long would he have lasted at it? what would have happened after?
-
Good to see Scott on breakfast - will this be the last year? and sorry he is not doing more R2 cover over the period although NYE is a bigger gig than R1 i'd say with much more chance of people listening to R2, I will be listening as I am working that night

Does Emlyn work on this show?? Saw him in the studio on Chris' insta story
I reckon he does, he had a BBC lanyard on and looked like he was probably why it's such a good show

BBC planning biggest expansion of its national radio network since 2002.
New ‘spin-off’ streams in Sounds could include 24hr rolling news version of 5Live, and extensions of R1 and R2 with different playlists.
https://twitter.com/mattkmoore/status/1198183515159965696
Full details in The Times, but their website is behind a paywall. I’m sure it won’t be long before someone else picks it up though...
Maybe we are going to get our Radio 1 and a half for those in their 30s / 40s like a DAB only 1xtra type thing but for pop from at least 10 years ago with people like Scott, Dev, Alice etc heading it

Scott posted an interview on his socials https://inews.co.uk/culture/radio/radio-1-dj-interview-scott-mills-radio-5-live-football-chris-stark-919993?amp&fbclid=IwAR0ePWvnSKluZ1Hs0jNj-A1hkYY2Q5gbWrMfvJYK1NyW_-01T-pd8_E--mU
Scott says he wants to branch out into speech radio plus he sounds "bored" of the Radio 1 format and constant music
He does say he has no plan to leave R1 currently as well

there's no handover as they do it off air, as they're really good friend. He will go and smoke during songs and the 15 min newsbeat: "fresh air"
Lol interesting thread from 9 years ago... Scott still does I think, in his socials there are always packs of fags on tables round him, and he is known to pop down for coffee between 230 and 240pm before bangers and have a fag then
Moyles defo and still does, he smokes in his garden in the summer before leaving for Radio X always on insta
Grimmy not sure now, but his live in BF does for sure i've seen the paraphernalia in insta posts
Adele defo NO fitness freak
Clara NO fitness freak
Jordan yes
Annie would say maybe socially? RMC ?? not sure

Wife and kids. Same reason Chris doesn’t do Christmas Day breakfast when Scott does it.
You just never see them on their socials and why would you, think Matt and Chris have relatively young kids
Scott usually has his mum up at Christmas, of course now his BF lives here so wonder what will happen there, if he'll go back to Wales or what
Scott is a god father to one of his best friends daughters you often see on his insta when they are out and about
Listened to Scott on R2 last night, sounds really "grown up" if thats the term?

(Adele is still down to be on Tuesday but that might be wrong)
I noticed that as well, may be incorrect if she's off I mean makes sense for her to be off after two weeks of covering other shows
Her insta is always saying how she wakes naturally at 2am when off so maybe they decided to put her in for two "daytime" shows the weeks before she is off so she is not as tired

I have no idea where they will be try the production companies website alternately convert the youtube video to MP3 and cut it using an editor
