Incredibly sad to see Clara leave. For me, the best at Radio 1, I still think her talent is somewhat under appreciated. The way she can hold down a radio show is unlike anyone else at the station. At a time where radio 1 is very feature and duo/trio led, Clara is a complete tonic. Her knowledge of music is second to none and she always sounds completely at ease on air whilst still being honest and real. She’s clearly appreciated by artists too (that Raye moment at The Brits, I mean come on!) I hope we still get to see and hear lots of Clara across Radio 1 and Sounds.

I think Arielle will be on Fridays in a couple of years, natural replacement for Danny Howard, just needs a few dance shows under her belt which she will get with this move. Could also see her stepping in for Jack and Sian when they’re off, she definitely has the talent for evenings and did a stint last summer (albeit it was cut short after that Ibiza incident). I don’t think there was much more for her to gain from doing early mornings and it will her to grow elsewhere. Hope we still get to hear her on the station, she’s one of my favourites.
