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.
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.

I think OJ will be saved for covering Breakfast since he’s done a few on odd bank holidays
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.

If it was existing Radio 1 presenter and GK Barry as co host, it would be slightly more palatable. I dread to think who the 'co hosts' will be.

First Danny Beard now this. It's a shame that Radio 1 seem to resort to this when they have so many strong presenters on the books both permanently or as regular cover.
Presumably they're banking on her bringing an audience that wouldn't usually listen but they want to attract, which is all well and good if it isn't at the expense of good quality radio and the existing listeners. There's a big difference between hosting a podcast and a radio show on a national BBC station.

DJ Spoony also in for Trevor Nelson on 22nd May
Interesting. Seems logical to keep Spoony as the main cover for mid afternoons, as he was for Scott.
-
Ros Atkins in for Jeremy Vine on Monday 19th May, Tina Daheley sits in rest of the week.
Saturday 24th May
Shaun Keaveny in for Dermot O'Leary
Richie Anderson in for Rylan.

Josh Widdecombe in for Romesh on Saturday 31st May and Saturday 7th June. He was actually quite good when he sat in the other month, so it's good to see him covering again.
-

Monday 26th May - Bank Holiday
Sara Cox sits in for Scott Mills on R2's Breakfast Show 6:30am/9:30am
Looks like OJ is off that week, it probably would've been him covering otherwise. It still has Jeremy, Trevor, Sara and Jo listed.. which I imagine will change at some point.
-
Lauren Layfield is on with Rickie and Melvin today.

Saturday 17th May (Eurovision Super Saturday)
3-5pm Your Favourite Eurovision Song with Michelle Visage (already avaliable on Sounds)
5-8pm All Request Eurovision with Owain Wynn Evans
8-11:30pm* Eurovison Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan
11:30pm*-02:00am Eurovison After Party with Richie Anderson
*Eurovision finishing at 11:30 is unlikely so Richie's show will start as soon at the contest finishes.

W/C 19th May
Jason Mohammad in for Owain Wynn Evans
Tina Daheley in for Jeremy Vine
