Grow up?? You told me to grow up?? Did you read my post? I said it wasn't out of spite at Radio 1. Like Stig said above.. I'm a Chris Moyles fan more than a Radio 1 fan too. I would have no insentive to listen to radio 1 if Chris left! I've listened to him since 1998 on Radio 1, and other than Chris, and Scott, I really cant take to much of the schedule!

Telling me to grow up... cant believe you sometimes. Maybe you should read the post properly first!

You cannot argue that at all.

It's rather obvious they want to put Coxy in the breakfast slot a second time,

Is it!?

Seems that way to me, they seem to be giving her a massive push at the moment and have people acting as if she's best thing since sliced bread etc, why would they be doing that unless they wanted to promote her further... they obviously forgot the huge fail that was her on the Breakfast show previously, but whatever the powers that be think must be right in it's infinite wisdom...

I don't think for a minute she'll get breakfast but I, as someone who didn't like her previously on breakfast would welcome it. She has undergone a huge transformation since then and sounds like a totally different person. And John yes it is a good thing, I was supporting you after Viv's tirade!

I did. I was just horrified by it. Zoning in on one Presenter is just ridiculous, IMO.

I've always viewed R1 as a package (the best way of viewing it), from Surgery/medical programmes, to the request show, to Saturday shows, to Edith and her movies... it's the best way of viewing things.... everyone (presenters) are gonna move on. At least, unlike you, I'm never gonna put myself in the position where I have to cast the whole station into the river, because my favourite presenter leaves!! *

* not a rant (honest).

THE Radio One breakfast show is to be hosted by a six month old baby, the BBC has confirmed.

Jack also goes through fewer nappies

Corporation executives wanted to replace current presenter Chris Moyles with someone younger, but have taken almost a year to find a candidate who did not make the veteran DJ seem like an idiot foetus.

A BBC spokesman said: "We brought in some people in their twenties, but they were far, far, far, far more emotionally and intellectually mature than Chris Moyles. They may as well have been in their mid-seventies.

"So then we auditioned some teenagers who do nothing but sit around all day playing Grand Theft Auto and fiddling with their genitals. But again, they had so much intelligence and wisdom compared to Chris Moyles. It was as if they were a different species.

"Then we tried a 10 year-old boy who picks his arse and then eats it and likes to torture bees. He told us that amongst his age group, Chris Moyles is regarded as pathetically asinine.

"We then went through a series of progressively younger children, all to no avail. There was a two year-old who seemed to have a similar sense of humour to Chris Moyles, but unfortunately she was no-where near as self-absorbed and petulant.

"Anyway, last week we finally cracked it. Jack has just turned six months old and loves wallowing in his own faeces and is tremendously amused by his feet.

"His presenting style involves hitting the microphone over and over and over again, screaming at the top of his lungs for no reason whatsoever and then enthusiastically shitting himself.

"Developmentally we reckon he's about 20 minutes behind Chris Moyles. So, mission accomplished."

Moyles will leave the BBC at end of the month and is expected to become the new director of programmes at Channel Four.

      Radio 1 Schedule Changes

      By TMD_24 · Posted

      Greg is doing Breakfast from 7am-11am on 23rd May which is a thirty minute extension of his usual Friday show and consistent with Big Weekend timings. Also it looks like from the 1st June, Radio 1 Chillout Anthems at 4am is being replaced by Radio 1 Anthems with Maia Beth and will also air at the same time on a Sunday.

      I mean I've been growing our engagement on Facebook in my department, there's still an untapped audience there. Also, as you alude to, the number of community groups has grown a lot since lockdown. I'd love to hear more about their thinking. If this had been Radio 1's strategy I don't think anyone would have disagreed.

      I think they must’ve been slowly killing of their social media presence I know for Radio 2 and 6 they do have dedicated unofficial social media groups so there is an audience. All Request Friday and features like that has a place on social media as can get requests via comment sections but I think Facebook struggles to know what it is these days.

      I just think it's more about what they're doing. If all you've got is a DJ dancing to Beyonce's latest hit for thirty seconds or Sara Cox reading out the All Request Friday number in a funny way it's not really what Facebook prioritises. I think it's great that studio interaction, but it does lend itself to Instagram and TikTok more. But I honestly believe there is a place for Facebook with the Radio 2 audience. The trouble is Radio 2 have barely used Facebook for the last year so there doesn't seem to have been a strategy there.

      Agree, all I'd see on x was medical professionals from other health trusts having a very carefully worded pop at each other, mixed in with a clip of jeremy vine with a camera on his helmet, a very strange place indeed! I imagine they have some data to back it up, but is the r2 audience really using tiktok?

      I get not putting resources into X which these days is a strange mix of angry political debate and adult content only. But you'd think Facebook was still the most popular social channel amongst Radio 2 audiences.

      Radio 2 seem to have decided that their strategy is just short video, so it does probably make sense with Instagram and TikTok. But I find it hard to believe there's not longer form content that wouldn't suit Facebook better.

      These late announcements are so lacklustre. It's not quite like the time they announced Harry Styles last minute!

      Probably got fed up of the usual moaning bastards all over it, asking for Ken Bruce and Jimmy Young back on air.

      Think it may have been better to include Radio 1 in this and 1 xtra ultimately focus on boosting a BBC Sounds social media to bring the multi-generational content marketed to a broader audience through one singular channel and having a separate social brand skewed to younger audiences maybe they should consider just having a @BBC @BBCSounds  @BBCSport @BBCNews @BBCFresh (youth brand) social media acounts national.

      Although a lot of their target audience do seem to be moving across to Instagram now.

      I suppose it's because not a lot of people use Twitter (or X) so maybe it's not worth their time, surprised about Facebook though.

      Surprised to learn Radio 2 and 6 Music are moving away from X and Facebook, I would have thought there's more appeal in Radio 1 doing that instead. Their target audiences still use Facebook, and it's still a key way to reach a good mix of audiences. Agree about X though, don't see any need for it. https://radiotoday.co.uk/2024/05/bbc-radio-2-and-6-music-quit-facebook-and-x-publishing/

      Just wondering…has any DJ got the answer wrong yet? I’ve not heard one and they are pretty tough questions! 😆
