what happens when sara's back?

sort of yeah, it does seem to me to contradict the plan of bringing in all the New talent if they're bringing back older talent like Sara. Could this also mean Jo Whiley won't be going anytime soon perhaps?

Probably not quite the right word, as the dictionary definition is; "1.to drive off in various directions; disperse; to dispel the dense fog.

2. to cause to vanish; alleviate: to dispel her fears." (point 2 is closer to what I meant)

He'll go back to working on Fearne's show and cover for other presenters.

There can be no answer to the thread's question yet, we don't know what will happen when Sara gets back, because it will coincide with the anual September schedule shake up. I imagine Matt will get his own show though.

I can't see any major changes taking place this September. I doubt Jo or Edith or anyone else for that matter leaving the station all together (possibly Dev, but very unlikely) in order to make space, so unless Matt Edmondson does Friday early breakfast with Dev doing Mon-Thurs, I very much doubt Matt would get his own show this time round.

I definately doubt he'll be going anywhere though, I think he's moreorless guaranteed a weekend slot or weekday early breakfast sometime within the next two years, but until then I guess he'll be back to weekend and early breakfast cover and his contributions to Fearne's show.

Dont we usually hear of schedule changes about now? Usually they are announced before the holidays start?!

Personally I cant wait for Sara to come back - she is one of the best!!!

I cant see any obvious changes this year though, and Matt will prob just stay on as cover until a DJ leaves. I do wonder how long Fearne can stick it out tho especially as the heavy promo of late suggest a slump in listeners.

I hope that Matt does EB and weekend cover, and then Sara gets all the daytime cover! Though im actually curious about hearing Reggie on a daytime cover slot - perhaps in for greg sometime as I think he could be a future daytime!

    • Just Vick and Katie on Wednesday (and presumably Thursday as well).
    • Unless people can provide a source for this information then it should be treated as false.   Why would Jordan sign a contract with the BBC in the autumn when he agreed a deal with Global?  He could have left in August and not had to deal with the BBC.  Vick who doesn't really like Global why would she recommend him to go there and then warn him in her post to be careful?   It's been whispered from October that Roman was thinking of going.  Roman and Jordan have the same management team.  Why would they put Jordan in a place where he would have to battle with the BBC.  They could have agreed a deal with Global for Jordan in the summer.  They might have had to pay first couple months but they would do they to secure him.  If they had known about Roman wanting to leave they could have paid Roman off to get Jordan on air quicker.  Global would also not had legal around BBC contract to deal with and would not have had to pay the BBC to release Jordan.  None of what people say makes sense and if it did happen the way people say then BBC are not the stupid ones.  It really is not a good look to be talking with Global for 6 months, to then sign a contract with a the BBC, continue to talk to Global behind BBC's back after signing and then couple of months later want to leave and to throw a hissy fit as the BBC are not giving you what you want when you want it. That not a good light for Jordan or his management.   
    • Wow, surprised he signed a new contract in September but it says a lot about Jordan that he continued to a very high standard throughout last summer/autumn if this was all going on in the background. 
    • They knew Roman wanted to leave early last year but wasn't officially announced but he gave them time to sort replacement. Found and offered Jordan a deal in June or July and needed time to get Jordan out of Contract at bbc and roman to do notice  Jordan had dinner with Katie Vick and Arielle to ask advice and all said he should go.   
    • And they told Radio 4’s Feedback that it was an ‘experiment’ to ‘look at the best way to serve young listeners’ but reaffirmed that 280 hours commitment.
    • I doubt he wanted to go to Global if a slot before he found out kemp was leaving.
    • We're hoping to get some answers in the coming weeks
    • From what he's saying on the Pod he's been trying to get out of r1 for a while. Looks like he needed to wait for a show on global to be available. Jordan had bbq last summer with most of thr global execs and he's referenced the deal was in place then. Obviously the hold up was r1 being stubborn
    • All seems to be back to normal this morning.
    • Indeed and Jordan was already friends with Sian Welby, Will Manning and Jimmy Hill.  
    • It's great to see those friendships still thriving. I think the days of Radio 1 DJs and Capital DJs being unable to co-exist is long over. You used to either be firmly BBC or commercial, and you don't get the sense that's the case anymore. 
    • Maia Beth will be presenting the Radio 1 Happy shows from the 27th April replacing Katie.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001ydkr
    • Vick and Jordan together on Insta (with Ariel’s) in Ibiza. You do imagine Jordan’s ex colleagues have a very different attitude to him than management. Comments on Help! And very subtle comments on Capital Breakfast suggest Jordan was frustrated with Radio 1 / BBC management.  
    • I can name quite a few people on this forum who would be better presenters than Danny.
    • His NYE shows were very good. Only thing I would say is he was shackled down slightly there. During his peak he played some great trance stuff in the late 90s and early 00s. So if he were to do a regular show that would have to feature more. Aside from I'd love to see him back.
