Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?

Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.

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.

As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.

-Considering how little Jamie has appeared since Vick went off on maternity, it probably would've been more sensible to have Sam & Danni taking over from that point and have him return with Katie. - Mylo and Rosie are apparently very good and one of the more popular local presenters who lost their slot when Hits went fully national. I gather they are very popular in Yorkshire. I can see them definitely see them popping up again beyond this stint. -Life Hacks cover is yet another good opportunity for some new voices (I know Yinka has popped up in the past). I have enjoyed Pete Allison covering though. I'm assuming most of August's Friday to Sunday 1-4pm will be made up of festival coverage.

Saturday 5th July Richie Anderson in for Rylan Shaun Keaveny in for Liza Tarbuck.

Joel Mitchell in for James Cusack on Sunday 6th July. TRNSMT festival coverage is now listed as Arielle Free, Ore Olukoga and Alice Hopkins on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th July (13:00-16:00)

OJ Borg in for Sara Cox on Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th July, with Phil Williams on the overnight show Tuesday and Wednesday morning.

Radio 2 Glastonbury coverage: Saturday 28th June Dermot O'Leary (8-10am) and Zoe Ball are live from Worthy Farm. In previous years Dermot has hosted a Glastonbury special in place of Rylan's show between 3 & 6pm (with someone covering his show). 10pm to midnight is Edith Bowman with Glastonbury Highlights. Sunday 29th June Jo Whiley is live from Glastonbury between 5 and 8pm.

OJ is now covering for Sara that week, with Connor Phillips on overnights that week (including in for Richie on Sunday night/Monday morning). Phil Williams is in for OJ Borg on Friday 20th June.

Ahh.. apologies! I didn't see your post above.

Sara Cox in for Scott Mills for the week beginning 30th June. Ellie Taylor is sitting in for Sara. Additionally on Thursday 3rd July, Tina Daheley is in for Jeremy and Spoony is in for Trevor.

Sara Cox mentioned on Monday's breakfast show she's doing a week in August so it sounds like she's covering Scott's next full week off (hopefully OJ is on drive then). I think he's sitting in for Scott on the August bank holiday though based off what he said the last time he did the show.

W/C 23rd June Tina Daheley in for Jeremy Emma Willis in for Sara Gary Davies in for Spoony I hope OJ Borg hasn't fell out of favour covering drivetime.
