Star Caller and the problem solving feature will stay, alaphabet game will go and for Scott think Tap end will and Wonder years might stay at 3:00pm on Fridays. Think Innuendo bingo will sadly go.

Ready for the weekend will prob go although that's technically a different show. Will Scott take over the Chart update or be pushed back for Greg?

Greg should have a intro jingle similar to cheesy song IMO and have at least 1 proper sidekick even if it's a newsbeat presenter

Right. Innuendo bingo and tap end HAVE to go. I would like a "cleaner" feel to scott's show, as it is sometimes riddled with smut. can't see wonder years being kept due to time o day. Wd actually like a BRAND NEW FEATURE. maybe more introducing new music... And getting listeners to vote on the "choons of the future". a new sidekick for scott, preferably male. edith and colin murray used to sound so great at one pm. greg's star caller has to stay..... Other than that, i don't know.

I like Stupid Street and Innuendo of hope they stay but think Innuendo will go. As for red button if it's used now and again would be ok but lots of visual only stuff on the radio doesn't work. I think red button space is going to be very sparce from between the hackney weekend and the Olympics do would have to be something really really good for it to work.

More music is always bad on the radio. As far as I'm concerned I have an MP3 player if I want to listen to just music and then I get to listen to my tastes in music and escape a lot of the gob shite that gets played. A bit of music yes definitly, but when it comes to radio there has to be chat and funny bits.

Not impressed with censorship

I like to listen to my own tastes as well, tbh. i don't mind chat as long as it IS funny. moyles is funny. nihal is funny. innuendo bingo has had its time, and is a bore. fortunately, it is almost certain to go, given the time of day the show is moving to. new life and new features, please. i iz bored

    • 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.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
    • There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine. 
    • It's a big 'No' from me (Israel-Palestine). No further comments.
    • A joke about pirates: ‘but we’re not jumping ship, like someone else’
    • I felt it was much better with the staging and everything.  I still cannot warm to his voice but he's a very good performer. Ireland was everything though.
