BBC Radio 1 have released another advert for the new Radio 1 Breakfast Show. I can't help but chuckle at the end bit "now with added music."

aaaand the pointless prejudging before it's even given a chance continues. I expect this kind of crap from Viv, but the rest of you? Massively disappointed in every single one if you unwilling to give the guy even a listen :|

(especially since quite a number of you, INCLUDING VYVYAN told me at one point I should give Coxy 'another chance' when I'd already tried to listen to her and just hated everything I heard... but I at least gave it a shot, f***ers)

Professional eater of puppy dogs, baby heads and killer of grannies...

By 'more music' they probably mean 'more money for us'

What a ridiculous statement. Radio 1 has to pay out more money for royalties, the more music it plays.

Although Chris Moyles is end of an era I am excited about what is coming. Its new, fresh, and exciting. Chris Moyles format was getting tired and the evidence shows that by drop in listenership. As MrDH says above, give him a chance for god sake! Everyone thought Chris Moyles wasnt going to be around long and look how far he got.

I think you are missing the concept! Radio 1 PAY the record companies royalties for paying the songs, not the other way round. Also the playlist is basically a opinion by production team of what should be played on Radio 1 to fit the brand image/target audience. But the record companies do visit to say why they think they should play their artists song, as the more popular the record company can convince them its going to be, the more popular itll be on radio, therefore more listenership hopefully blah blah blah.

Hope this is helpful:

Finally some people seeing sense, VIV... please be quiet. Yes Moyles was this and that and lots of other stuff *blah* *blah* *blah* but let's be honest his show got boring and his listeners were too old for the station, finally Grimmy comes in and is going to genuinely play GOOD MUSIC, as well as fun chat etc... i'm going to give him a really good chance, plus why are you all complaining about music, scott plays music all the time.... and this is a SCOTT MILLS FORUM.

anyway rant over, good to get that off my chest.

oh and another quick thing, Moyles has been a real dick to grimmy, yes i like moyles before you ask. he would probably say it was tongue and cheek but tbh most of his listeners won't take it that way and already aren't, i'm sorry but even if you don't like the decisions that are being made you shouldn't abuse the person who has no say whatsoever in the decision...

exactly what i was saying, it's just a lot of the moyles fans won't see it as joking and will give him so much shit on his first few days on the text, twitter and Facebook like they already have been! i actually think the changes are good, it's good to refresh the station, as upset as I was about scott moving, it has dare i say it... IMPROVED HIS SHOW... he now gets an uninterrupted 3 hour show and with chris stark full time it's just so much better, he has regular features, so it's been a good thing, even if it means having to listen to the podcast more now.

hello

    • The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right 
    • I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes 
    • What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
    • He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band 🤣 how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio 
    • Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom. We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show. Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
    • As positives go, at least Danny said what the last song played was and upcoming song played was. Plus I guess in that link are perhaps ideas for content (asking listeners to come up with bands from things around them, things that have happened to them this week). That's where's the positives end. It comes across as no thought has gone into what Danny will say next. It gives me proper flashbacks to some Jamie Laing links (especially that one show where he was unexpectedly solo). It's ironic that for all the duos and trios on the station - the one show and DJ that is positively crying out for another DJ to help show them the ropes is left all solo. At least with Jamie Laing they learnt their lesson and he's not been left solo since.
    • How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out 
    • RPReplay_Final1713612277.mp4   You’re welcome
    • At a time when Radio 1 has surely lost listeners to Capital at Breaktast you’d be trying to protect the station so people switch back.  Certainly yesterday I didn’t switch back to Radio 1 at all.
    • Was abysmal…Surely Danny can’t be a contender for anything permanent when the new schedules are locked in I.e Matt and Mollies slot 
    • Alexandra Burke creating the phrase 'Elephant In The Room' whooooooooo
    • Zane Versus.... Whooooooooo. Do You Do Fridays? WhooOOOooo.  
    • The Capital Breakfast show is right up my street so far - such a fun listen. You've both been great on Radio 1 and are sounding excellent again on Capital A few quickfire questions: You've both been part of some great pairings on radio and on podcast - what goes into making a duo or trio work and sound great on air? Also, Chris - were there ever any discussions about you moving over to Radio 2 with Scott or had the Global offer already come first? Also how do you both go about managing that split between your radio 'you' and the private 'you'? You share a lot on air but also there's some understandably some stuff you keep private (famously Jordan doesn't 'talk about those things'). And how do you make sure if you're having a miserable day or are a bit low that it doesn't come across too much on air?    
    • What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
    • Have been reading this all week. She's such a brave woman. Just got to the chapter where she explains why she missed Scott's leaving event at Radio 1. She talks about leaving Radio 1 because her mum's health got worse, and wanting to quietly leave radio at 44 just how she first arrived on the airwaves at 18. Worth a read!
