I'm not..... I've always said that shows that come from outside the Studio are a bore. They only mean something to the birthday boy!! I was bored to death, and ran off at 0930 hours!!

I know Aled likes this soap opera stuff... the kind of concept that we are all involved in on-going events, etc., etc., but I, as a listener, don't actually feel involved.

I kind of felt like I was listening to a party in a neighbour's house, that I had been barred from.... You know?? It's meaningless.

The pic Fearne Cotton has posted on twitter is OK though ( I suppose ) ... looking at pix now makes it slightly more interesting.

Only Scott can somehow manage to pull this stuff off.... example = Edinburgh last year.

And the "I'm 24" stuff needs to stop as well, year after year... it's beginning to get on my nerves. It's clearly not the truth, and it's assinine.

0/10 for today (the only way is up).

Delta Machine, Depeche Mode - buy NOW !!

Yes Viv. That's the joke. I'm sure in the past you've been complaining you want Moyles and the team to do something different. They have a one day birthday celebration, a bit of fun and you give it 0 out of 10?

Anyway I as usual enjoyed the birthday show. Only heard the first half though so have some I Playering to do! Great show, best birthday show for a few years!

I thought today's show was good but I enjoy the studio birthdays more. I guess it's nice to do something a bit different though. Westwood was very funny - he's wasted with the limited listeners on 1Xtra.

Limited, limited!!! i think his listener would be offended by that.

I enjoyed the show a lot. I never felt excluded - it was like a drama unfolding and I enjoy that sometimes. I liked when Howard Stern got drunk on air during the MTV Awards and I like when Chris is out and about, especially for something like his birthday.

One of the better shows of late.

Mitchell - I'm honestly emotional at that positive review. It's like the man from DelMonte - "he said yes!"

    • I think they should just bring that back as was. It's been nearly 20 years, so do it with a whole bunch of new DJ's. 
    • I think this year has taught us we know nothing 🙂 Nobody would ever have credibly predicted Jordan leaving and all the changes that followed.   I have another interest outside radio and it is exactly the same - the stuff you never expect to happen is exactly what does.
    • Yeah they make the weekend shifts go so much quicker. Like today, the piece about Matt falling asleep in the cafe was funny, it's clear to see why they're going to weekdays. It could well be they were thinking of Danny for it and like you say have decided against that, or like I said at the start it's James Cusack and the slow down on the announcement is him getting out of his contract. Remember he works for radio 1's main rivals. I think it's quite telling that he's doing more r1 cover than usual, tomorrow and then a further 3 weekend shows in a row
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky between the 28th-30th May.
    • I suspect they’re gonna tie the announcement into something, or they’ve changed plans. I know we’ve said it as a joke but I wonder if Aled was planning on giving it to someone like Danny Beard, but he’s decided against that after the last few weeks. Seems clear to me, though, that if Jordan hadn’t left, then Katie would’ve taken Dean and Vicky’s slot and Matt and Mollie would’ve stayed on weekends, which probably explains why they haven’t picked a replacement yet. If it was going to be the obvious choice, I.e. James Cusack, surely they would’ve announced it by now..?
    • Yep think they mentioned that this is their penultimate weekend of shows but then they will also be on air during Big Weekend and they mentioned they'll be doing 'Party Anthems' on stage during Big Weekend which sounds intriguing. Will miss Matt & Mollie on weekends - they in particular have made that Friday afternoon slot their own - but they'll be great on weekdays. Do wonder if 'Summer on Radio 1' is just a placeholder name until they decide on who will cover the interim. While it's obviously not the case it does feel like they've forgotten there's that weekend afternoon slot to fill given no permenant presenter has been announced for it yet.
    • Zoe Ball is back on the breakfast show on Monday.
    • Just listening to matt and mollie at work and heard them say it's their second to last show on weekends
    • And Arielle mentioned in her Instagram post that her final early breakfast show is the 27th of June - the Thursday before Glastonbury 
    • When Matt covered breakfast on 22nd April, he said their new show was starting in 10 weeks, so that’d be the 1st July.
    • Would love for it to be like the Summer Friday Thing that me and @DC were remisincing about recently. Lots of events going on that could easily form part of it.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/summer/cardiff/thursday/1.shtml
    • I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury
    • I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.
    • Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then? 
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.
