Vick Hope and Katie Thistleton in for Jordan North from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd.
Dean McCullough sits in for Matt Edmondson. from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd. Mollie King presenting as usual.
Sam MacGregor and Danni Diston in for Vick and Katie on Life Hacks and The Official Chart: First Look on Sunday 23rd.
Vick Hope in for Annie Mac on 25th May.
Sam MacGregor and Danni Diston are doing a stint for early breakfast later this year i think,
They covered at Chrtimass, and were fairly good, so it sort of make sense to bring them back.On Vic, unexpected. But she host a music podcast on sounds, so probably got the background and passion for music to do the show. will be interring to see how she gets on

I think it’ll all be aired, some of it in the September changes, some of it presumably overnight tucked away?
Looking at it, it seems some of the content is already on BBC sounds

It a sad time, Annie will be missed. She is one of the finest dance and new music dj BBC radio 1 has. I have to say I was not expecting.
Annie statement on her Twitter is an emotional read.

I could see Jack been the next host of drive time show. He sounded great, he had energy, great listener interaction.

Great topic! Here goes... I find Charlie Hedges unlistenable.
I agree on her own not fan, i would also extend this to RMC only work as trio, spilt them up they don't work or sound the same.
Grimmy' is need a part of radio 1, and should stay on drive.

With radio in general it was probably on my way to school, mainly radio 2.
End of my Aleve, is when i stared paying more attention to radio 1. It would of been live lounge month 2016 is the first time I rember paying loads of attention to radio 1.
used to listen on 3rd party app on my computer, and in the car and i player radio. WHOThen Sounds came along and it made listening so much easier.

To be honest, I'd love to see Clara take over Annie full time Monday to Thursday. I think Clara is great on evenings whenever she covers.
I much prefer Clara in the evening compared to in the day time.

He's 47, and age is not that relevent, if the show he's putting out connects with the target audience.
I would agree Scot is still very much revlant today. He could go on for years to come. The day he doesn't get meme, doesn't get something and become unrevleavt, is the time he needs to leave.

Very much so, Age is just a number. those are still at the top of there game and attracting the audience

Yungblud in for Jack? That should be an interesting listen!
Vick & Katie are in for Matt & Mollie tomorrow, while they're still on Breakfast in for Greg. I'm sure the schedule did have Vick & Katie on breakfast with M&M in their usual slot tomorrow, but it's changed since. I assume it was an error.
Last year, I am pretty sure Jack had artist cover his show for week, one of them being Youngblood, If i rember he sound good.

I doubt it, but you never know.

I've just realised that it is Chris birthday on the 12th of March. So are they going to do anything for that I wonder.

I think it's a shame they do these things on a weekday night, if it was a Friday or Saturday night I'd stay up to listen to parts of it. Is it due to the higher profile specialist shows being on the weekend nights?
I am guessing a couple of reason here.
One around the specialist shows at the weekend, as you say.
also around that there are probably more listener during the week, and with more listeners more chance for donations.4 hours ago, Ash101 said:Currently stands at 66 hours

Probably reached a point where it’s unattainable
It is only 2.75 days.
when the sole record is 88 hours, I think that record is very much breakable.

Press release with all the details, nice to see that it involves all the presenters and good to see that it looks like lots of money is being spent on it. Very intrigued to see how they’ll do some of those things with Covid measures too!
Looking at the press releases it dose seem there is an opportunity for it to be longer than 24 hours. Since it dose start at 9am on the Thursday, with a due to end on the Friday.
I am going to hazard a guess that it will carry on till the start of the Chart on the Friday.
I am also glad it seems that pretty much ever presenters is going to be involved, I am guessing there is going to be a lot of zoom, so also a lot of zoom failures are going to happen I guess in the middle of the night. -

So it’s been talked about since Last Summer... Scott seemed to hype it up a lot so unsure if it’s just a lolathon
So it is LOLathlon again.
Here we go -
In the words of Greg. "Fun plans".
I think most likely to be lolthon

Hadn't thought about the restrictions on the studio, loved it when they had all the Northern DJs in one room last time.
Studio restrictions are probably one of the biggest difficulties at the moment.
1 minute ago, abertom said:My list of suggestions includes some unlikely and ridiculous
Greg’s taking a sabbatical and Scott/Chris are going to take over breakfast as their final radio 1 hurrah.
Lolathon or longest radio 1 show
Scotts departure
Equivalent to Radio 1 big weekend being announced.
hide and seek
Radio 1 are going on a vaccination roadshow
There are some good suggestions here.
Greg On sabbatical maybe, he been doing it for 2 year, it probably a good time. Scot Chris would be a good temporary host of the show. I would guess that Jordan would then take what is now Scot and Chris show.
Lolathon, or longest show, i think this is the most likely think.
Scot Departure, surely he would do this on his own show.
big weekend, or similar. was my first thought. I was thinking end of summer, when hopefully the world is back to normal.
hide and seek, very much doubt at this stage. October half term I would guess would be the best time. but if they did do it now this would be a good idea.4 minutes ago, michaelb said:They could do it so he broadcasts from one of the BBC local studios and we have to guess which one using clues.
Vacation roadshow. Maybe.
But I think if this was going to happen it would guess it would happen when vaccine are being given to people more within the target audience for radio 1
