Viv 14 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 It is 1Xtra's 10th birthday today. Trevor Nelson was saying people seem to think they are only two or three years old, but it is actually TEN!!So ... well done.

Jono 66 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Yeah have to admit I wouldn't have guessed it was ten. How time flies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 88 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 i remember it launching. i thought it would act as a filter for radio 1, but they've continued to play the same type of crap on both stations for a decade.

Tom. 10 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Exactly. Why have a dedicated channel for Xtra RnB Xtra Hip Hop Xtra Westwood Xtra Chavs and Xtra Yodelling, and then have it all on radio one too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 88 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 they have also been doing simultaneous broadcasts over both stations for a few years now too, maybe to do with the bbc budget and all? Quote on the grid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R94N 10 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Along with 6Music 1Xtra was going to be one of the stations the BBC were going close but ended up not doing so because of the backlash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom. 10 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 they have also been doing simultaneous broadcasts over both stations for a few years now too, maybe to do with the bbc budget and all?I meant in terms of the music. But if they can't afford to run both stations, close 1xtra. Pretty simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle_y 10 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Along with 6Music 1Xtra was going to be one of the stations the BBC were going close but ended up not doing so because of the backlash.1Xtra was ever threatened with closure, you must be thinking of the BBC Asian Network.
