    Oh yeah I remember seeing something about R1 not doing new presenters this year? Would be quite cool just to have normal presenters? As this is what they used to do before covid no?

    It used to generally be the 'B team' plus Scott & Chris would shift over to breakfast.

    Roman Kemp is stepping down from his Capital breakfast show, although that's according to The Sun (they're usually correct with the entertainment 'exclusives', though).

    I suppose someone like Will Manning or Jimmy Hill might be a good shout if they look to someone in house to replace him.

    Listen to Annie & Grimmy’s podcast earlier, really liked it and found it to be a good giggle as expected. Anyone else listened?

    I heard the preview they've done. Sounds really good. They're on with Clara Amfo in a bit to talk about it.

  4. Quite a few changes coming up in the coming days and weeks. Zoe Ball was off this morning, Gary Davies sat in.

    Scott's off from tomorrow and is back on Friday 29th September. Gaby Roslin sits in tomorrow and Friday (21st/22nd), with Anita Rani sitting in Monday 25th to Thursday 28th September

    Tina Daheley is in for Jeremy Vine tomorrow (21st) and next Monday (25th September), Victoria Derbyshire sits in this Friday.

    Gary Davies sits in for Trevor Nelson on the Rhythm Nation tomorrow night (Thursday 21st September) and all next week.

    Emma Willis sits in for Claudia Winkleman for the next two Saturdays

    Paddy O'Connell sits in for Liza Tarbuck on Saturday 30th September and 7th October.

     

  5. Greg is by far the best DJ on the station now. Fingers crossed he stays for a while longer yet. 

    -RMC feel very wasted in their slot. They would've suited the 1pm slot as well. It just feels very crowded having 3 people on mid mornings. I can't help but feel they won't move beyond their current slot, although Charlie might have an extended future with Dance Anthems.

    -Sam & Danni are probably the best of the new intake, and have been long overdue a permanent slot. I'm sure they'll make the new weekend breakfast show their own, hopefully they progress to weekdays in the next couple of years. 

     

     

     

  6. I must admit, I echo what others have said above. I never thought I'd start to move on from Radio 1, but I have definitely started to move towards being a Radio 2 listener now. Although I massively miss Scott & Chris on R1, I think Scott has settled in well at Radio 2. I also agree Matt & Mollie would've been a much stronger choice for that slot. It's one of a few shows I do still enjoy.  

    Scott & Chris' departure was definitely one of the biggest losses to Radio 1 in my opinion. I can't help but feel Dean's rise to weekday daytime was rather sudden, Vicky's even more so. Had they started up on weekends together, it wouldn't 'maybe' have sounded so so jarring?

    Just Jeremy Vine left before the Radio 2 daytime takeover is complete. Zoe, Vernon, Scott, Sara and Jo. Who would you put in his place? 

    Tina Daheley. She's his main cover, and does an even better job (in my opinion).

  8. A few more changes in the next few weeks:

    Nicki Chapman sits in for Michael Ball on Sunday 20th, 27th August and 3rd September. Also on the 27th, Paddy O'Connell in for Rob Beckett

    That’s his 4 shows for BBC Sounds I think 

    It isn't. They're something called Sunday Love Songs' Extra. I believe they're 30 minutes long and will be airing in the middle of the night like other Sounds content.

    The 7-9pm slot on the 21st-24th August has been renamed 'Steve Wright's Summer Nights'.

  11. Steve Wright appears to have some evening shows coming up. Monday 21st to Thursday 24th August 19:00-21:00 are listed as 'Sunday Love Songs', but the description says "Contemporary and classic tunes that say summer, mixed in with summer shout outs".

  12. Paddy O'Connell sits in for Rob Beckett on Sunday 16th and 23rd July

    Richie Anderson sits in for Dermot O'Leary on Saturday 22nd July

    Gaby Roslin sits in for Zoe Ball from 31st July for at least a week.

    Phill Williams sits in for OJ Borg Tuesday 1st-Friday 4th August.
