Recommended Posts

Is anyone interested in doing a special 'Your Views' thread for the Marathon Show? I dont think everyone will be listening to the whole 37+ hours, so many of us will be dipping in and out I imagine! And it would be kinda nice to compile everyones thoughts here

I hope a lot of this gets stuck up on youtube by various people like it has in the past when they've streamed the webcams. I'll be watching on red button if I'm in the house, which I imagine I probably will be.

Really hope to watch/hear the overnight stuff on the iplayer or something, I have a feeling thats when its more likely to go downhill, but in a funny way.

That's already why I mixed Mills stuff in with Moyles stuff on The Scott Mills' forum. D'uh. :rolleyes: *wonders why bothers *

I would, I would also tell them exactly what I think of Justin Beiber just to watch what happens when they explode with rage and crumble in upset at the same time ;)

snap... and just for good measure add Glee to the hitlist just to hit the TRI-tri-tri-Fecta... especially for those few Gleetards* out there,

* thankfully only a few, but these people actually seem to think the songs sung on Glee are ENTIRELY ORIGINAL... :rolleyes::doubt::doh::whack: :confused:

No problem with the majority of fans who realise they're covers, btw.

and back on topic for a brief moment, now watching on Red Button. The webcams seem quite decent quality... and unless I'm very much mistaken, he's just tipped over the 12 hour mark. Innuendo Bingo won by Dave hands down but was good.

<strike>Shame they had to ruin it with some of the crap music being played like that Black and Yellow thing and Lady Gagaaaaaaaaaargh</strike>

I've been watching the red button coverage today, and something just came to me. We know what the current longest show record is for Radio 1 and they are thinking about having a stab at the world record as well, but do we know what the current record is for continuous tv broadcast, and is the red button coverage eligible?

Generally not my kind of music at all, but I'm liking Mistajam as well. Seems like a really friendly guy and quite understanding that this isnt Chris' scene really. Also have to say that he doesnt really look like what I thought he would (Mistajam, I know what Chris and Dave look like ;))

After having had a look on the GWR site, it seems like Chris and Dave a long way off for continuous tv broadcast. Big Brother in Germany was apparently broadcast continuously for an entire year, starting 2 March 2004 and ending 1 March 2005.

    • The Summer on Radio 1 thing makes me wonder whether they might be doing something similar to last year again where they have a temporary schedule over the summer before introducing changes in September - maybe the new host won’t start until after the summer?
    • There was talk on my Big Weekend group from the council about them waiting for Ticketmaster to send an email out. They said they've been waiting a week. Maybe they're waiting for train strike confirmation first. 
    • It’s on Saturday and Friday that week too. I guess this would make sense, as it gives them roughly 6 weeks off weekends until they start the new show?
    • Yeah he's on more than usual including this Sunday and then 3 more shows in May according to the above. Makes me think it's James for the weekend shows also
    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.
