Chippy

Recommended Posts

Last year, in the 2010 Predictions thread, many predictions were made. http://tiny.cc/d8cvn

These are the results...

Correct Predictions.

  • Chippy - Prince William gets engaged.
  • E*F*L*4L - Some sort of big disaster in the world, earthquake, hurricane, flood.
  • E*F*L*4L - Labour government booted out
  • E*F*L*4L - Gordon Brown won't be PM anymore by June.
  • Rik - Lots more extreme weather.
  • Rik - Conservatives will come to power and do absolutely diddley squat.
  • Mark710 - The economy will slowly recover worldwide.
  • John - Pete Doherty gets arrested.
  • Me_54m - By everyone will have forgotten who Joe Mcelderry is.
  • Rainbow_brite - There will be a shock match result in the World Cup.
  • Rainbow_brite - We'll be out of recession by the end of the year.
  • Rainbow_brite - Most of the airwaves throughout the year will be filled with awful pop songs.
  • Mitchell - A celebrity will die young, of natural causes that end up being unnatural.
  • Mitchell - The Daily Mail will spread their politically incorrect hatred of our country to the right-wing idiots who buy the shitrag paper.
  • Mitchell - England will not win the World Cup, but boy will we ever believe that we can.

Wrong Predictions.

  • Chippy - America will be attacked by terrorists.
  • Chippy - At least a couple of shootings at the 2010 World Cup.
  • E*F*L*4L - There will be some sort of attack in the UK, (London, Birmingham, Manchester) or/and attack either on USA soil or a embassy,
  • E*F*L*4L - Iran to go nuclear, Israel or USA to do some sort of strike against Iran
  • E*F*L*4L - Tony Bliar to be tried for war crimes
  • E*F*L*4L - Australia vote on leaving the Commonwealth (due to Charlie boy being a idiot & future king),
  • E*F*L*4L - England get knocked out of the semi's in the world cup.
  • Rik - Quite big improvements to the economy, but not enough to pull us out of recession.
  • Rik - Russia will claim we've done something to annoy them and cut off our fuel.
  • Rik - Some sort of attack on western society from the middle east.
  • Rik - Dubai will be deserted when all the Arab's fail on their loans, leaving a rather expensive wasteland.
  • DC - I can see something happening to birmingham over here, the canals aren't very well protected and lead right into the city centre.
  • DC - They will attempt another attack on the united states again, maybe on the scale of 9/11.
  • DC - On a lighter note. England will go to the world cup with owen coming off the bench to fire us on, until we get knocked out in the quater finals by Portugal.
  • Serin - Thatcher will finally die hopefully.
  • Mitchell - The election will be won by a political party.
  • Mark710 - The US will not experience a terrorist attack on the scale of 9/11 but a European Capital will experience a major attack.
  • Mark710 - There will be a sad occasion that will visit the Royal Family.
  • Rainbow_brite - Unfortunately the Tories will win the General Election
  • Me_54m - There will be either summer flood or a summer heatwave or both but either way it will be the wettest or hottest month on record.
  • Rainbow_brite - There will be a security scare in the Commonwealth Games
  • Mitchell - I genuinely think the Tories may not get into power though. Got a weird feeling that it'll be closer than people think, and that Labour may edge it.
  • Lucie - I reckon Miley Cyrus or somebody similar will get pregnant.

Will you have better predictions for 2011?

they did get bailed out by Qatar.

Me_54m - There will be either summer flood or a summer heatwave or both but either way it will be the wettest or hottest month on record.

hmmm, it was very hot, sure it wasn't a record ?

I haven't forgotten who Joe McElderry is, I have his album, 'tis awesome. My personal favourite is Real Late Starter…

Yeah but most normal people have, or just don't care... I mean what's he done lately? Same will happen with that guy who 'won' it last year too... X-Factor only ever gives 3 minutes of fame, surely people should be able to see this by now?

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
