Radio 2 in the Park 2024

[James R]

According to the RAJARS website the quarter 1 figures will be released on Thursday 13th May.

Predictions anyone on Moyles/Evans???

[Guest inxces4308]

Both down. Evans badly down though.

[E*F*4L]

Evans badly down.

:woohoo:

[The Stig]

Recent news reports have suggested Evans audience won't go down that much. I think Chris might rise slightly, it's normally 3 he suffers in.

[Chippy]

Evens is sacked the moment the results are out, Graham Norton is given breakfast and we are all happy

[Jono]

The DJ Chris Evans, who was attacked as “too manic” when he took over Sir Terry Wogan’s breakfast slot on BBC Radio 2 in January, has proved his critics wrong. He has increased audiences for the show by as much as 10% to 9m, according to Rajar listening figures to be released on Thursday.

whoops

6Music is going to be a big riser tomorrow.

Just seen the results on sky text - not sure if they are accurate but they are certainly very interesting.

[Guest inxces4308]

Well they are embargoed until midnight for public, meaning Sky cannot public them yet - so not sure what your on about!

[duncan]

If you can access Sky Text, go to Page 171 and the results are up there for the 2 Chris'. There was also a bit on Sky News about it at about 10:30 - probably the same coming up in the next few mins.

[Joe Boy]

Wow - Evans on 9.53 million. That's a million and a half up on Wogan's figure. Nobody was expecting that. Radio 1 also up quite a bit.

[Chippy]

"The Radio 1 breakfast show presenter Chris Moyles also achieved his highest-ever audience figure at 7.88 million a week."

6 Music has done very very well too.

Radio 2 up lots.

Asian Network down - bad news for them.

Moyles sets new record

Chris Moyles has set a new record as the latest figures show he is pulling in 7.88 million listeners at breakfast.

He's helped the station gain a high of 11.74 million listeners per week in the quarter, compared to 10.76m last quarter and 11.07m last year.

Moyles fans were expecting him to have the number one breakfast show after Wogan's exit, but with Evans increasing the Radio 2 audience, this looks highly unlikely.

Other BBC services have also done well, Radio 3 has a weekly reach of 2.03 million listeners – up from last year’s 1.99m and last quarter’s 1.87m. The network’s share is 1.2 per cent (up from 1.1% both last year and last quarter).

Radio 4’s reach is 10.03m, up from last year (9.98m) and last quarter (9.84m). Share is 12.2 per cent, down slightly from 12.5% last quarter and last year.

BBC Radio 5 live – this week named Station of the Year at the Sony Radio Academy Awards – posted a record combined reach with sister station 5 live sports extra of 6.56 million listeners – compared to 6.32m last year and 6.19m last quarter. Share for Radio 5 live (inc. sports extra) is 4.7 per cent - from 4.6 per cent last quarter and 4.8 per cent last year.

Where can we access the figures for all the R1 jocks? This will be the beginning of the end for G :sleep: J

You have to pay to see figures for periods of the day.

[The Stig]

Chris Moyles posts his higest ever audience after nearly 7 years doing the show. An outstanding achievement, well done Christopher.

[Jono]

Curses, I thought Evans would see a drop. I think it would be likely that Radio 2 is now becoming the place for a generation that listens to the radio more. So I think Evans is fortunate to be coming in at a time when more people are listening to Radio 2. I'm sure there'll be some curious listeners adding up to those figures.

Axe-threatened digital station BBC 6 Music has seen a nearly 50% increase in its audience to a record 1 million listeners, according to the latest radio industry figures.

Published today, official RAJAR data for the three months to March 28 reveals that the station grew its weekly reach to 1.02m from 695,000 the previous quarter.

The station's growth in popularity was largely down to a high-profile campaign to save it from closure next year under BBC director general Mark Thompson's strategy review.

6Music, as predicted, doing very well.

[Fago]

And Vernon Kaye?

Can't believe I haven't seen Mills' figures being posted. it's HIS fansite??!!?!

[Jono]

Been a good week for the show! A Sony award and now our listening figures are up! THANKYOU 16 minutes ago via Tweetie

Long weekend with my boys in Germany, week in Bangor with Moyles & Co next week..oh, and half a million new listeners to the show. Happy boy

(Greg's twitter).

But seriously, Moyles is the man! He simply must get a new contract with these figures. Others survive a year or two, but Moyles is at his best after seven years. Congrats and respect!

[Lee.]
