They're certainly not holding back with IB are they! And this following the bleep-age on yesterday's. Ofcom might not be too happy. But personally I think they should go back to being a bit more risqué with features - more enjoyable.

Really liking the show so far, still a bit odd hearing it in this time slot but I'm liking the structure, it all feels nice and smooth, especially without the the 15 min Newsbeat. Welcome return for OWO. Just wish they'd shut up about 1D for more than 5 minutes!!

I agree - it sounds like they want to have as much fun over the next 3 years as possible. Very reminiscent of the Scott Mills Gold days!

I sort of yet the impression he had previously been told to tone it down, after the last ofcom incident, and he did that but now the bosses have moved him his sort of saying "tough i will do my show how i want"

Sorry if for any spelling mistakes, I'm dyspraxic.

It's just a different audience - they're mostly people at work. Apart from the Easter week.

Have enjoyed the show today, got the podcast from yesterday to listen to while at the stables instead of listening to Greg. Scott is far more important!

IB was good, actually watched it too since ima off work this week. TOTDS sitting hiding in the corner haha

Listened today for the first time at the new time and loved it. It sounds different but I like it. Loving the return of Innuendo Bingo as well, I've missed it. I will miss Scott in the afternoons, but I'll get used to it. And Greg was good as well today, did well I thought.

Probably one of these from yesterday:

@Harkinson: "@scott_mills @gregjames @bbcr1 Can't we have Scott back? This is appalling.."

@Harkinson: "@celebritain Told you @gregjames was rubbish. He tries too hard to be funny and fails.."

Don't really know if I've been blocked or not but I can't "follow" him anymore. :(

Why would you Follow someone you constantly criticise? REALLY don't understand that mentality "Oh I can't stand this guy, shouldn't be on Twitter, ain't got a good word to say about him *click follow* "?

Viv, it probably won't let you follow anyone because you spam follows with that FollowBus/FollowTrain/FollowDaLeader stuff and the ratio of people you're following in such a short space of time to people following you is probably awful due to that. That's the kind of thing those spammers do.

EDIT: oh look, 2000 you're following, 863 following you, that's like 2.3:1.

Every account can follow 2,000 users total. Once you’ve followed 2,000 users, there are limits to the number of additional users you can follow. This number is different for each account and is based on your ratio of followers to following; this ratio is not published. Follow limits cannot be lifted by Twitter and everyone is subject to follow limits, even high profile and API accounts.

In addition to this account-based limit, every Twitter account is technically unable to follow more than 1,000 users per day.

    • Annie did the Friday night dance show as well so I think that made her more prominent. She's an excellent presenter at new music and I think Jack is the perfect successor for this show. Clara was always in the 'good' category for me. She's been around since I started listening to R1 so feels a bit weird she's leaving. Think it's only Greg, Matt, Danny Howard and Pete Tong left now!
    • See I don’t agree…I think the three way dynamic is not really working. Vick & Katie are really great together and I enjoy Vick & Jamie together. It’s something between Katie & Jamie that’s not gelling for me. However it’s early days and they are still much better than some other combos. Plus Matt & Jamie were radio comedy gold for me so I don’t think Jamie’s the problem. Just maybe didn’t need to be a three. 
    • HAppy birthday Scott mills I hope u like the photo sent to you and I hope u recived my massive birthday CARD as I sent it to BBC RADIO 2 broadcasting house on special recorded delivery for you as let me if u have got it as I wrote a very large letter to you inside the card and sent a photo inside the card as well your biggest fan Yolanda xxxx LOVE 💖 YOU MILLIONS SCOTT  MILLS 
    • It's rather sad that Pink News is even running this - they should know better.
    • I was invested in the show when it was Vick and Jordan / Katie - now I don't pay attention and might leave the station when Jordan starts on Capital.  What I do hear is a mix of formulaic and awful.   It's strange how one person leaving a station can affect your outlook on the whole station.
    • Happy birthday Scott! Hurry up and get back on the airwaves 😊
    • Think it just depends on his commitments but agree he's a good listen. 
    • I liked her last show, but I don’t feel it had the same impact as Annie’s show. Also, I feel her tenure was quite short to be honest, so don’t understand what the sentiments are all about. I mean Annie did this show for 6 years and Zane Lowe for 12, compared to Clara’s 3 years. Looking forward to Jack taking over from her - I think he has a lot of influence from Zane Lowe and we need that energy in 6pm slot.
    • I wonder if R1 will do a big event type thing on the week that Jordan starts on Capital? It will minimise the number of people turning over I’d guess 
    • Hard to believe that all the new shows from September 2021 are now pretty much over, aside from RMC on the live lounge show, and even then, they seemed to change things up after 18 months or so. It feels like yesterday since 6th September 2021 when all those new shows began!  
    • I've never listened to Rylan before this week but have found him to be excellent.  He should be Scott's main cover going forwards
    • Always thought Arielle would get this show. She's the most natural presenter to Annie Mac. Maybe it was something to do with her Dj career and residencies in Ibiza
    • Sad that she said she felt different to others at Radio 1 having come from 1Xtra. Lovely how supportive Greg was through her career. 
    • To be honest she never filled Annie’s shoes in my eyes. It’s been a disappointing tenure having not been able to grow her show. It’s a stark contrast from her mid morning show where I preferred her to RMC.
    • Yesterday when Katie was off was nearly unlistenable. Shows how vital she is in the show dynamic.
