    I feel like it’s case that when slots are often need to be filled there’s the thing that choices tend to be mad3 from a small but pre existing group of people already working within the bbc or have links and ties to the organisation feel like diversity needs to attract diversity that allows for presenters working in the industry a chance to be considered for shows on the station and to say let’s try to give more slots ro talent that yes from places from Asian Network but also who haven’t had been previously on a bite national show on one of the rivals or radio 1s rivals.

    But if they constantly poach people in from other stations instead of using familiar faces, the BBC will be seen by others as splashing the cash unnecessarily.

    I know they always have like a soft pop playlist in hand as back up as used for terror attacks previously but I know some was saying that there could be some offerings of escapism rather than thinking a light distraction from the news is distasteful as I understand of course why bbc would have taken some stuff of earlier in the day but should’ve resumed bit earlier in my opinion.

    like anything like Have I Got News For You if Radio 4s News Quiz is scheduled would be bad taste or potentially could land in hot water but felt music stations could resumed bit more quicker. Do see it is difficult for news organisation but saw complaints in the drove and think it didn’t reflect what the listener would’ve wanted.

    Yeah do agree. I didn't get why they had Radio 4 on for hours- switched to Capital and they were handling it well with news every 30 minutes and through the night (nice to hear some throwback tunes on there since the axe of The Capital Throwback.

    So it is a possilbity that it could often be pre recorded and possibly more so since Huw left 

    Yeah it is. I don't get in my region (BBC Radio Newcastle) why at 6pm the presenter comes on to do Beat Surrender live (alternative classics show) then leaves at 8 for a repeat of the Thursday Introducing show. Sounds cheap.

    I assume probably 90 minutes show with mostly music not sure if she does read out text or tweets and feel it’s the thing that some content on bbc post 11 pm maybe pre recorded feel that’s possible for Radio 3s night tracks and of course some 6 Mu#ic content feel Radio 2 with OJ will be live think depends on type of music show 

    OJ is live on Radio 2 (well he was last night at least). Gemma might be live however Introducing isn't really an interactive show so I don't think she reads out any texts. Introducing on my local station goes out live on a Thursday night (I think?) but don't read any texts as I think it is also repeated on Saturday night.

    I think they didn’t need to continue with the schedule changes as they have done I would say maybe yesterday done an half an hour Newsbeat or a short simulcast with Radio 4 for half an hour than extended bulletin later in day for at most half an hour and directed people to find on World Service or Radio 4 as think should’ve had chart on as usual kept usual Friday shows ditched 3pm party anthems and maybe kept Matt and Mollie on then for the duration of Friday after noon be willing to cross to Newsbeat reporter for any further think the station missed the interests of its audience 

     

    I do agree with you, but the BBC are held to a higher standard than commercial (heard about what happened when that newsreader for the death of the queen mother wore a burgundy tie). Capital have gone back to normal music though. The Anthem mixes would of been ditched as some of the songs might be found inappropriate and it is easier to ditch than search through it and add different songs in.

  9. Suggested something like this in the chatbox for sometime soon. Slots not on there stay the same.

    Weekdays*

    10:30-1 Vick Hope

    3:30-6 Jordan North

    6-8 Clara Amfo

    8-10 Nick Grimshaw & Annie Mac

    Friday-Sunday

    Rickie & Melvin replace Adele Roberts

     Katie Thistleton replaces Jordan North

    Annie Mac & Danny Howard swap slots

    Adele Roberts moves to the Sunday 4-7 slot (Surgery type show with Dr Rhada). First Look remains 6-7

    *At first, Clara moves to The One Show to cover Alex Jones with Vick Hope taking the mid-morning slot and Katie solo on Sundays. When Clara returns, the rest of the changes take place.

  10. After the death of the DofE, the schedule has slightly changed this weekend. Will update if any other changes.

    Today (Sat 10th)

    • No Radio 1 Anthems.
    • There will be no Today's Dance Anthems. Classic Dance Anthems will continue till 7pm. 
    • Tiffany Calver (but no Rap Show)
    • Radio 1 Wind Down presents from 11pm

    Tomorrow (Sun 11th)

    • Chillout Anthems has replaced Radio 1 Anthems.
    • Radio 1's Chillest Show extended to 11pm
  11. I think if this article is true it basically kind of confirms that Scott is being moved over to Radio 2. The article states that the presenters have got a reassurance that they will stay in London but the article doesn't state that they are all staying at Radio 1. So the Salford slot might be the slot Scott has vacated to move to Radio 2. Could be totally wrong but just a thought.

    Oh I agree completely. Rickie and Melvin seem to be lots together without Charlie. Like they not long ago competed on some Reality TV program together. 
    I do think perhaps once the world starts to move back to normal, they’ll quietly take Charlie off of evenings and keep her solely on dance anthems. They do sound better apart in my opinion. Charlie sounds more comfortable doing her dance anthems, whilst the lads seem happier on the night shift.

    I would of thought if Charlie was going to be taken off she would of already been so they didn't need to have a remote connection.
