Big Weekend has been confirmed to be in Carlisle at the airfield, by my 2 mates, one works for the people who create the road diversions, and radio1 have contacted them to check they could do it. My other mate, works for the ambulance service, who have been contacted to be the medical staff.

This is AWESOME if it's true. If people who were around here 2 years ago remember, I moved from a town near to Swindon to the lake district just before the location was announced and it was more than annoying seeing all the pictures from people on facebook.

Airport seems likely if the location is Carlisle, Don't think there's anywhere in the city centre big enough to hold it.

Any ideas on dates?

why have it up north again? Should be North/South rotation

Again? Last year was Wales which isnt north. 2009 was Swindon which is South-west 2008 was Kent which is South-East. 2007 was north so by my reckoning its about right

Bangor is North Wales - if it was South Wales or something then could understand

But Wales as a whole is west not north so Carlisle would make sense for north/south

It will be on the week of 21st and 22nd May though, especially if it is the same week as normal

Year before last it was the 8th/9th.

By whom? Greg I suppose?

I reckon there may be a friday as well... Grimmy the other night said "She could play Friday at the big weekend"

And playing: Jessie J and the Vaccines. Chris played them both during the marathon and then said "What a combination. I'm saying nothing"

Heard it's at Carlisle Airport this year. They put on their site that they wouldn't be taking bookings between 14/15th may due to Radio 1, then quickly took it down to just say that they wouldn't be taking bookings. Also heard that Live Nation have got permission to play music, serve alcohol etc between 1st May and 1st June. Hope it is in Carlisle though, live about 10 minutes from it so it would be great! :D

Surely that was an obvious joke seeing as her song is called Friday?

      Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter.

      Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?

      Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.

      Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!

      R1 to R2 transfers

      By Lee E · Posted

      I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days

      Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.

      With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.

      Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now

      Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

      By Lee E · Posted

      Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday.

      As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
