  1. big dilemma incoming about which breakfast show to listen to then…
  2. Hard to believe that all the new shows from September 2021 are now pretty much over, aside from RMC on the live lounge show, and even then, they seemed to change things up after 18 months or so. It feels like yesterday since 6th September 2021 when all those new shows began!
  3. AJ Tracey is on the Big Weekend Anthems song list so I’m guessing he’ll be there, probably on Sunday.
  4. Monday and Tuesday is now Matt and Mollie on breakfast. Nat in for Dean from Monday 15th to 18th April.
  5. I think that’s April 2024, given that’s a Wednesday.
  6. Got Friday tickets in pot 3, used 4 devices and luckily managed to get to c. 1200 in the queue on one of them.
  7. Royal Blood were added late last year, and were bigged up as a late addition in exactly the same way that Harry Styles was the year before, who was also a late addition. Another thought I’ve had is that they may have had their headliner pull out, and they’ve promoted Raye to headliner given her increased prominence following the BRITS. Would explain why there’s fewer artists. There’ll also be a clash between the two headliners presumably considering both RAYE and Charli both appeal to a similar demographic, which is generally something they try to avoid (eg. Last year the two sunday headliners were Sub Focus and Lewis Capaldi).
  8. Given there’s only 6 acts on the main stage, I imagine that there’ll be at least one more name. Not a headliner, but someone who is probably keeping a return/new album under wraps, such as Foals or Sam Fender.
  9. Not a very strong line up so far. Griff, Mabel, Aitch and Rag ‘n’ Bone Man haven’t had a high charting performance in a couple of years. there’s probably an argument to be made that Charli XCX should be on the main stage over Griff, perhaps (she’s headlining the New Music stage). RAYE as headliner as well…
  10. Broadcast wise it’s going to be interesting to see how they handle the performances starting at the same time as the chart show.
  11. Friday is from 4pm to 11pm. Saturday is from 12pm to 10pm. Although I imagine they will have some pretty big hitters for Friday to encourage people to choose the shorter day instead of the longer one. It’ll probably be a dance act as headliner, so maybe Calvin Harris as suggested above, or perhaps Chase & Status.
  12. Arielle had a residency on weekends straight after her challenge, which may have been why she wasn’t there!
  13. Looking back in 2018 they actually did the chart for an hour from 3pm - 4pm, and then concluded the challenge from 4pm - 6pm.
  14. They started at 5.30am this morning.
  15. Future radio 1 breakfast host by the looks of things
  16. https://www.bbc.co.uk/backstage/bigweekend/ interesting that Milton Keynes has made in to Pot 2 but Watford hasn’t, which is a shame as stockwood park is only 20 minutes from me and I may now struggle to get tickets.
  17. I suspect we’ll get an announcement next week, but they won’t say so until after mollie’s challenge is done.
  18. James doing the Chart on Easter Friday.
  19. If they were going to give him a slot they would’ve given him Dean and Vicky’s slot probably. Capital also wouldn’t be giving him the grand (for their standards) exit that seems to be happening if he was going to Radio 1.
  20. I suspect they wanted Vick back to anchor the show next week when they are taking it on the road. All of these seems very messy, and could’ve been avoided if there wasn’t pettiness from the bosses at Jordan choosing to leave…
  21. Off because he has a driving test on Saturday as well apparently!!
