So, the first Matt and Mollie weekday show today and what a triumph it seemed to be. You could tell that there were nerves there, didn’t seem to be as natural immediately as they were by the end of weekends but obviously the show will settle in pretty quickly.
Glad to see another very content heavy show though - today we had someone who is going to review the week, a new ‘Best Thing Ever’ feature which was fine but nothing groundbreaking, the ‘5 to 2’ quiz which was a very clever way of getting a quick quiz in everyday, a texty feature, ‘Don’t Match Matt’ a new game that it sounds like they’ll be playing a couple of days a week and then ‘Battle Tracks’ which I’m very glad has stayed. 
 
Very pleased that Matt vs Mollie is staying too (along with I assume Mol’s Teaser) and then the new features they’ve bought in seem good too. Hopefully they have the budget to be able to have guests every so often as well! Overall, it seemed a very promising start.

Is it just me or does Greg never have Danny in for a pre show chat.
RMC are always in.
Katie and Jordan used to be regulars and Arielle chats often

Jordan just slipped up and said we are listening to bbc radio one

I mean not everybody can just go to Spain, but also Scott and Sam requested phones off, so most people don't have their own pictures. 

Vick isn't Jordans type. There's a reason he doesn't talk about those things.

I thought it was interesting he said he spoke to three people before taking the job. I wonder if it was that dinner?

I don't think Dean and Vicky was the long term plan for the show. Replacing Mills and Stark was always an impossible job for whoever took it on and would have had flak for it. I think they wanted someone in that was  far away from that show ready for now. I don't know if Matt and Mollie were always the intended recipients of it or if they had someone else planned. 
At the time there was a lack of quality available besides Matt and Mollie and maybe they wanted to give Dean and Vicky airtime as they have big plans for them moving forward

Greg's shoe live and Jordan on catchup so can skip ads

Always thought Arielle would get this show. She's the most natural presenter to Annie Mac.
Maybe it was something to do with her Dj career and residencies in Ibiza

I always think there not doing the whole thing. Eg. They start and do maybe 5 miles, stop and a someone else takes over in disguise and basically do shifts. The photos and videos are when Mollie is on board.
Some of the timings don't add up like usually finishing at time supposed to finish at

I think Matt works well with anyone or on his own. A multi purpose presenter.

Arielle won't commit to doing a weekend show as her dj commitments. She would realistically do live lounge as she does presenting like Clara and charisma of Annie mac. Would love her on drive. Think people would enjoy that.
Think Ricky and Melvin will leave to host on 1xtra leaving Charlie on dance anthems and Friday cover.
They clearly like Ore and James so want them in full time at some point. Maybe Nat and Ore on early with James and Vicky on weekends. Not sure where that leaves Dean though maybe Chart to begin with or a weekend breakfast if Sam and danni get drive.
 
 

I think Matt taking over from Scott would have been to like for like in some eyes now and no one big would have wanted to be the one who replaces him.
Where as now the dust has settled on Scott leaving so the new shows an improvement
