What y'all think of TOTDS leaving.... ?? Every success for the future, btw.

Slightly controversial but is Scott about to go too? Am I reading more into this than just someone wanting to try new pastures??

Is my mind in overdrive..... anything seems possible @ R1 these days, however?!?

Opinions please. *

* Nice ones, Nik B !! :hahaha:

I'm more concerned about TOTDS's safety.. Didn't Scott say if Emlyn ever left him, he'd hunt him down and kill him? :o

He better up his security. ;)

Though, seriously, sad to hear he's leaving. Gonna miss hearing him on the show.. :(

Scott's contract doesn't run out til March 2015 so you've nothing to worry about*. ;)

It's a contract at the BBC though, not at Radio 1. They could put him on weekends, on Radio 2, or do anything so long as he's still doing something. Moyles' contract hadn't ended, they dropped him.

I'll miss TOTDS's laughing in the background during Innuendo Bingo plus all the brilliant things he's done for the show like Scott Mills: The Musical.

Wish him all the best in what he does next.

It's a contract at Radio 1! Moyles was offered 2 slots but turned them down..

The writing is so on the wall for Scott's show. It's the same day after day. Very little listener interaction, no guests, same predictable segments over and over again. It's just a matter of time now, sadly.

I agree tvguy, I tuned out of Scott's show a few years ago as it was becoming the same tedious stuff over and over, the show has gone downhill I feel since Laura left (no disrespect to the replacements).

I'm now a regular listener to Radio 2 throughout the week and enjoy the DJ's and music they play, it's not the same repetitive dirge Radio 1 churns out day in day out.

Is there a new producer? and does anyone know what TOTDS went on to do??... x

I think Chris Sawyer has replaced Beccy, but I'm unsure on who has replaced Emlyn. He has gone onto create a new independent production company called Banana Stand Productions.

As always, im a week behind re the news via podcasts. Dont listen to Radio 1 live anymore.

Ouch. Didn't realise The One was responsible for so much. Thought a lot might have been Scotts own work. The dismantling of Radio 1s value to me is getting very sad.

Hope they are still equipped to come up with goods. Rhianna of of films talking dirty over the microphone would be ideal.

I just typed that out loud didnt I?

    • Richie Anderson in for Rylan tomorrow.
    • Mylo and Rosie said at the end of their show today that they would also be on Early Breakfast on Thursday 24th July (even though the schedule still says Dean)
    • James is in for Dean from Monday 11th to Thursday 14th August. Dean is in for Greg from Monday 11th to Friday 15th August. Jaguar is in for Sarah on Friday 15th August.
    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now
