I've noticed on all the IB videos, when Scott is introducing the IB feature to begin with he is always writing something down. He's never really concentrating on what he is doing on the paper so I just wondered if anyone knew what an earth he was writing down or if it was just doodling?! Its been bugging me for ages!

CHRIST. Drawing himself a new Studio may be accurate, with Moyles' announcement. Cannot believe this is happening so fast.

All I have to say is....... FUCK ... wonder if it is all to do with the Trust bringing down this age range, and all their bloody nonsense. Moyles' twitter just says "more details soon"...?!

So, with Greg not long in the new slot, this leaves Scott among choices for brekkie then.... and maybe a chance to show the R1 bosses he CAN do it, when they thought he couldn't.

Love the politics. love a bit of politics.

Mills has declared Moyles leaving the end of an era. Agreed. Been a pleasure all these years. An absolute pleasure.

*starting to become quite emotional* Damn. Why did this have to be the one morning I was listening to Radio 2 because Evans isn't there this week, and my dad has to tell me all about this.

Just found this:-

An hour into the Radio 1 breakfast show this morning, presenter Chris Moyles announced that he would be stepping down from his role as presenter.

In a four-minute speech he said, "I wanted to say thank you to everyone listening to the show for giving the team and me the best time ever... Even during tough times this show has honestly been the best three hours of my day, every day."

Radio 1 controller Ben Cooper – who has been under pressure to make the station’s audience younger – said "I'd like to thank Chris. Quite simply he's been the most successful breakfast show host in Radio 1 history. He's done it for more than eight and half years and he's been fantastic."

At 38, Moyles is much older than the radio station’s target audience of 15 to 29 year-olds and this move follows similar changes that Cooper has recently made to the schedule which has included switching 26-year-old Greg James into 39-year-old Scott Mills’s main afternoon slot.

Moyles is contracted to remain with Radio 1 until New Year 2014, however.

Ya know. Just spotted a button saying 'multi quote this message' when replying to stuff. Does that mean this is how peeps reply to several points other people make? rather than double or triple posting?

Yep, exactly that, click that on all the posts you want to reply to, then click the Big Reply To Thread button at the bottom to make that work. Only works with posts on the current page though.

    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
    • Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?
    • I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.
    • Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.
    • I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.
    • With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot. 
    • Conor Knight is in for Sam & Danni on Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June. It's Radio 1 at Parklife, 13.00-16.00 on Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June. Matt & Mollie are in for Greg from Monday 10th to Friday 14th June - it's just Matt on the Thursday. It's Radio 1 at Download, 13.00-16.00 on Friday 14th June.
