I often listen to either Radio 1 or Absolute and thought id do a comparison of the songs played and the amount of repeats.

Also added some info from local Bauer stations as well but this needs to be divided by station better on the stats page.

See the data which i have been collecting for around 2 months here - http://www.cooperuk.com/stats.php

I understand your point but Radio 1 claim to have logic in alternating the playlist between each show. Chances are you will hear the same songs in each show - it's a fact. But Radio 1 target new music whereas Absolute does not.

Thats really interesting! I get a bit tired of Radio 1 in a day to be honest, so it's usually Moyles in the morning and then a couple of hours of scott from 4. I wouldn't listen to anything else, though. I'm sure that really Radio 1 is not station you listen to for a long time.

It's all about how long the average listeners are tuned in for, innit?

Don't know about England, but in Switzerland it is.

And before anyone gets annoyed because of the repeats - this is absolutely nothing! You should listen to our local radio station, they are even worse! And that's why I started listening to R1: I had enough of endless repeats.

In Italy, some A-list singles are repeated every 60 minutes. On Radio 1 it's about 3-4 hours until a single is repeated. It's not that bad...

Same with many commercial stations in Britain, the one that springs to my mind is Kiss. Although I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing, but the Radio 1 system is much better.

Hahaha... lolz. I used to listen to Galaxyfm back when i fancied Dave Kelly (who was the reason i got twitter) but then he left, and i was flipping through the stations and found one playing Sam Sparro's Black And Gold (my fave song at the time) and it was Annie and Grimmy in their old Switch Time Slot and thats how i fell in love with R1 (and Grimmy).

      Summer on Radio 1

      By DC · Posted

      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

      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.

      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.

      By Dan18F1 · Posted

      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.
