  1. Think Taylor would be too costly of a production now it was different in 2018 in Swansea but her stardom now is on another level and think could distract from the rest of the line-up.
  2. I mean Calvin probably maybe not just because of Vick but closes ties to the station and someone they booked so often sounds likely. I mean it could be a surprise headline announcement regarding Fred Again. One that his team and the station could be keeping under wraps think it would be the right time and moment for him to do such a gig. Raye likely headliner bit I don’t know whether Beyoncé would cost too much and eat out of the budget for the festival. I just don’t see her doing a radio festival.
  3. It will be interesting to see what they do with the Friday line-up think maybe someone like Fred Again.would be a good choice. Raye having not been booked for Glastonbury this year would be a good book post BRITs to boost listening figures and IPlayer/TV ratings. I still think Friday maybe dance heavy as since they are set to launch Radio 1 Dance on DAB+ radio it shows how mainstream and popular the genre is.
  4. I don’t mind Coldplay used to be my favourite band few years back still got couple of their albums on vinyl considering this will be their fifth time playing its hard to find this as an exciting booking for them. I know papers and other different music sources were rumouring that Madonna and Stevie Wonder was top choices to play and if they were booked they would be that that something. I get that vibe find the stuff on the Park Stage, Westholts and the Woodsies (old John Peel tent) have some of the best acts. Do share that feeling.
  5. It feels odd that Glastonbury has made their headliner announcement and big name performers on the stages that are broadcasted across BBC before big weekend when big weekend is held a month before. Interesting they have gone for a big weekend vibe almost with with Dua Lipa, SZA, Olivia Dean, Little Simz and Burna Boy playing the pyramid and Disclosure, The Last Dinner Party and Nothing But Thieves on the other stage.
  6. I guess thats the period ahead of the new Future Sounds and Future Artists.
  7. Possibly on television apps and think they would look to do big marketing promotional campaign. They’ve been on the quiet for a while about the service so it’s unsure what they fully planning for the full launch of it. Once they launch search bar, programming follow and subscribe options, downloads and reliable pause and resume for on-demand listening Jazz FM and Absolute Radio have programmes I’d possibly subscribe to and Kiss.
  8. Makes sense I think its the thing that I’ve never made much sense of radio being a big thing on television sets not with since the rise of smart speakers in peoples homes that they no longer have to be reliant on a television set or a radio with the signal of the station. It may have been handy with places where couldnt pick up stations on DAB or FM in area and signal was crackly but dont think many people have a traditional television set up of aerial and cable programming through wires and boxes all apps and that and that is what BBC has managed to successfully delivering with Sounds available on smart televisions and boxes excluding Apple TV boxes.
  9. Seems with Tony Blackburn’s Sound of Soul and Clash of the pirates may be a good pull for the stations elder demographics and if marketed correctly could be something to attract listeners of Boom Radio for a couple of hours.
  10. Are they filming new series right now? They only just had her finale of the last series.
  11. Yes, although I don’t think Radio 2 would happen for a few more years but any freelance broadcasting and exploring passion projects and some other television work and travelling. I think for some weekend afternoons isn’t going to be attractive to a presenter who could get the highest wages and and high profile slots. I see for presenters like Roman would use it as the socialising time of the week.
  12. Yes, especially when weekend afternoons on most radio stations never is where a big audience is for radio listeners its a more leisurely and casual time of the week on radio and most stations keep it as very playlist heavy with casual conversation
  13. They really turning it into a hotbed of comedic talent which feels at odds to what its audience wants of its station with Graham Norton and Paul O’Grady having previous television careers much like Claudia Winkleman before she joined. But now with Romesh joining from later this spring taking over from Claudia, Michelle Visage, Angela Griffin, Rylan, Rob Beckett as people known for being television names that are regular positioned on the station. You do have the vacancy of Steve Wright’s Sunday Love Songs and whether they decide to retain the ‘Sunday Love Song’ programme or launch something different later this spring or summer.
  14. I mean with Vicky and Nat’s weekend show there will be guaranteed with Dean on early breakfast that every day of the week there will be content coming from Salford and that includes Victoria Jane’s programme also now got programming from Cardiff and wouldn’t be surprised if they would launch shows featured across Radio 1 and 2 coming from Glasgow any time after this year.
