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.

      Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe

      Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.

      To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday?

      It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week.

      Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!

      There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?

      Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.

      Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters

      Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.

      Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.

      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.

      Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.

      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.
