Personally I wasn't a massive fan of it this morning, I didn't mind when he was chatting unless it was about 1D and we all knew who was going to be on the phone as soon as mentioned them. Beiber annoys me and I was in work by that time so didn't have to suffer hearing him. Far too much music to what ima used to, mind you last week Scott seemd to be massively music happy more than I usually remember him.

I'll give him a few more listens as it was only his first show and see how it goes from there, otherwise I'll be listening to Scott :)

I Actually looked at the music played. Scott played 31 last Monday. Grimmy played 21 songs this morning..... Random fact

Well I think it has been only a few days and Nick will grow into the role. If you can think back that far so did Chris like everything good it take time. Saying that I think so far so good. I like the show it is relaxed, fun and the music mix is just right. I loved The Chris Moyles Show and miss him but Nick is not bad at all. I feel that some people sould give him a break.

I've only caught Grimmy for a couple of mornings. I don't dislike the guy, but I'm afraid I'm off to R4 or R6 now. He simply isn't my cup of tea at 6.30 am.

Phew! Radio 1. You've got rid of yet another undesirable older listener.

Will still try to catch Scott when I can in the afternoon.

I have been with R2's Zoe Ball this week. Evans has been off, and will be off next week... so for the moment, I haven't listened to ANY of Grimshaw. Should be trying him out for the first time week beginning 15th October.... I suspect I will have to attempt to have Evans grow on me though, or try out R4 even.

What happens on R4 at a breakfast time?

Same here. Sad it has come to this. But hey... I just listen to Scott when I can - one or two days a week (mostly around a lunchtime).

Actually, I feel quite strongly it may take some time to actually forgive what R1 have done with Moyles.

The Today programme, with John Humphrys.

For what it's worth, I only heard Monday and Tuesday's shows, but I thought Nick did well. The features and format of the show will obviously take time to settle - they'll figure out what works and what doesn't - but he is a natural presenter and his general chat and flow is very good I think.

I've really enjoyed Grimmy's show! It hasn't been perfect and some of the features ought to go, I'm not mad on the Waking Up song or Four-Tunes but the rest is very good. He has a brilliant rapport with the guests. I'd like to hear more from Ian (who I seem to remember as being v.funny from Coxy's show), Fiona & Matt but at least they are on microphone now unlike the first show. All in all I think he's been really promising and I've enjoyed listening :)

Talking about the show features. Wheel of Four-Tunes is good but needs work it needs a point. Nick's Tape is poor rip off and has no point with the Golden Hour you had to gest the year, it also had that link with radio 1 history and the tunes had that feel good pop factor that has a friday feel good feeling. Call or Delete is great and funny, I would say I am not sure how long Nick can do it before his phone book stopped playing along. There is that one with The Quiz Bot I can't think of its name, I think it will grow the Bot needs some more lines.

As for other features I can't think of the other right now but I give the features a good base but could do better.

      Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.

      Jordan North's first Capital Radio breakfast show

      By AndyK77 · Posted

      Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.

      Just Vick and Katie on Wednesday (and presumably Thursday as well).

      Arielle Free's wedding

      By callspy · Posted

      Unless people can provide a source for this information then it should be treated as false.   Why would Jordan sign a contract with the BBC in the autumn when he agreed a deal with Global?  He could have left in August and not had to deal with the BBC.  Vick who doesn't really like Global why would she recommend him to go there and then warn him in her post to be careful?   It's been whispered from October that Roman was thinking of going.  Roman and Jordan have the same management team.  Why would they put Jordan in a place where he would have to battle with the BBC.  They could have agreed a deal with Global for Jordan in the summer.  They might have had to pay first couple months but they would do they to secure him.  If they had known about Roman wanting to leave they could have paid Roman off to get Jordan on air quicker.  Global would also not had legal around BBC contract to deal with and would not have had to pay the BBC to release Jordan.  None of what people say makes sense and if it did happen the way people say then BBC are not the stupid ones.  It really is not a good look to be talking with Global for 6 months, to then sign a contract with a the BBC, continue to talk to Global behind BBC's back after signing and then couple of months later want to leave and to throw a hissy fit as the BBC are not giving you what you want when you want it. That not a good light for Jordan or his management.

      Wow, surprised he signed a new contract in September but it says a lot about Jordan that he continued to a very high standard throughout last summer/autumn if this was all going on in the background.

      They knew Roman wanted to leave early last year but wasn't officially announced but he gave them time to sort replacement. Found and offered Jordan a deal in June or July and needed time to get Jordan out of Contract at bbc and roman to do notice  Jordan had dinner with Katie Vick and Arielle to ask advice and all said he should go.

      And they told Radio 4’s Feedback that it was an ‘experiment’ to ‘look at the best way to serve young listeners’ but reaffirmed that 280 hours commitment.

      I doubt he wanted to go to Global if a slot before he found out kemp was leaving.

      From what he's saying on the Pod he's been trying to get out of r1 for a while. Looks like he needed to wait for a show on global to be available. Jordan had bbq last summer with most of thr global execs and he's referenced the deal was in place then. Obviously the hold up was r1 being stubborn

      Indeed and Jordan was already friends with Sian Welby, Will Manning and Jimmy Hill.

      It's great to see those friendships still thriving. I think the days of Radio 1 DJs and Capital DJs being unable to co-exist is long over. You used to either be firmly BBC or commercial, and you don't get the sense that's the case anymore.
