I'm so happy about these changes, I swear the radio 1 bosses are actually reading these forums and our suggestions re cover! Also Scott deserves this extra cover, he's been working really hard with chris, is willing to put extra hours in and has managed to get half a million extra listeners, a HUGE achievement

hello

Great news more Scott really enjoying Scott on Breakfast at the moment as I don't normally hear him during the day as I work. Don't enjoy Grimmy so enough said. Scott is great at the Chat also.

Scott appears to no longer be on Friday with Grimmy doing breakfast as normal and Huw presenting from Reading Festival. Scott is however presenting Breakfast on Bank Holiday Monday

I'd be interested to see if they keep Matt Edmondson as deputy for Scotts show. I thought he was absoutely excellent in last 2 weeks and doesnt get nearly enough airtime. I think Huw gets a too bigger bite of the cherry, and if he wasnt already in for Zane he would be in for Scott instead. I do like Huw, but its nice to hear Matt Edmondson on a lot more.

Been listening to the chart today and Scott is so much better at it. I love Jameela, but the chart show just isn't her (I enjoyed her doing 7-9 better). Scott makes the show so much more fun, he added anecdotes to the show as well as doing the chart stuff. Jameela just reads off a script.

I was enjoying the show. Until 10 minutes ago when the online visual option started. You can instantly tell that Scott is no longer in charge of the desk as he ended up talking too earlier then the music wasn't faded then turned up again on time. I wish Radio 1 would drop this "TV Show" style idea for the 6-7pm part. I enjoyed it much more when Reggie was behind the desk and the show would sound much more slick today with Scott standing there.

Its actually a bit cringeworthy hearing the chart just because its SO scripted its feels very false! Also, maybe its my inner anorakness, but I quite like watching them drive the desk when they are visualised! Its so much more interesting then just looking at them. The cynic inside me thinks that it was probably because Jameela was just so terrible at working the desk thats probably why they changed the format so a producer does it instead.

    • Fair play to Jordan north who’s got himself to 5th least distracting, but Greg has managed 8th MOST distracting, and Rickie who is 12th most distracting.
    • 29th April has Alyx Holcombe in for Daniel P Carter on the Rock show and Nels Hylton in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monday 6th May (May Day Bank Holiday) schedules are completely different. Looks like it's a Countdown to Radio 1's Big Weekend day. Changed timeslots in the morning as well with no presenters listed. 6am-10am (Breakfast slot changed from 7am-10:30am) 10am-1pm (Mid morning/early afternoon slot changed from 10:30-12:45pm) 1pm-3:30pm (As normal) 3:30pm-6pm (No Newsbeat) 6pm-8pm (Replaces New Music Show) Rest of evening schedule as normal.
    • What does that even mean? 😂
    • Not sure what it really means, but Scott Mills is one of the least distracting DJs according to new research. https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/cars/article-13283609/Most-distracting-radio-podcast-hosts-driving-revealed-Mark-Wright-Chris-Evans-list.html It says Radio 1 though, which is not only inaccurate, but also I can only imagine it applying to his Radio 2 show. How many sounds effects did he used to play on Radio 1, ha.
    • I would rather do the new music show than the breakfast show early starts, being cheery and entertaining isn’t my vibe and being hip and on trend. With new music it’s a different kettle of fish that could get my teeth into and enjoy researching and planning of the show and coming up with ideas and making my mark in away that I don’t think I have the ideas for a breakfast. I don’t see how it could be alienating but I enjoy the niche and speciality of expertise that new music shows gives it’s good spot of giving you the headlines and setting the agenda of mainstream music.
    • Absolutely, Jack is such an incredible broadcaster already, incredibly entertaining with such brilliant music knowledge and his excitement is contagious, I've never really listened to New Music Shows like Future Sounds but I'm instantly invested in new music due to his show, as I'm sure many others are too.  yes the effects are a little strange but after listening back they're strangely charming when you get used to them. 
    • Jack has smashed it He was born for this show, he said he’d been dreaming of it and you could tell. Such passion and energy as always with Jack but in a show that can grab people’s attention and drag them down the rabbit hole of new music if you had a keen interest in discovering new music but haven’t in a while, new music shows can be alienating with no familiarity until you ‘get into it’ - the new show has ensured you can ease into to get back into sync . i love the Zane influences - he will be the forefront of where every emerging and returning artist wants to be with this show . Very excited for this chapter
    • Oh I though they were nbh studios   
    • Yes, I feel that unless it’s for a special sessions with a large ensemble band that for live sessions going out live on the radio. Never saw why they haven’t used the live lounge studio and feel that room could be used more.  
    • Interesting now Zane has for apple interviewed anything from an artists that have charted and doing less interviews with new and emerging talents chatting to Shakira, Usher, Kelly Clarkson and Shania Twain. Yes, that is a positive thing about Jack Saunders. Although I don’t mind it from time to time for a presenter to be honest and spill an unsavoury opinion about music on the station like Annie did with Fall Out Boy.
    • Interesting Jack mentioned they've got new studios at Maida Vale; you'd think, with the move to Stratford, they wouldn't bother update the studios so close to the end...
    • I assume it's meant to appeal to a TikTok generation
    • Yep Jack is very much Radio 1's modern day Zane Lowe - but with the bonus that he does feel a bit a bit more open-minded and open to chart stuff than Zane was. I could never imagine Zane being a chart host the way Jack is - I always had the sense if Zane didn't approve of your music taste he'd make you well aware of it.
    • I will still call them sessions as feel with gigs it makes you think of a live tangible means of going to listen to a band play music and not virtually tuning in via the medium of radio.
