Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

[BlueSkies]

Has anyone else listened and watched any of the G in the Park stuff on Greg's show this week? If so, what are your thoughts?

Thought it was a really good week of shows, particularly liked the late night stuff online with them all sat around the camp "fire" chatting. Also good to see and hear more from the production team too. Hope they do it again next year.

I loved it!

I love how good it looked on Red Button, with all the camera- Scotland did make a good TV production with the Radio 1 team- and Kenny!

Overnight was good, and heading Pippa, Travis, and Tom talk was brilliant.

I may have watched the overnight coverage for few hours/3 hours a night!

I agree with you, I thought it was very entertaining and great radio overall. Shows the very hard work of Pippa and Travis and whoever else behind the scenes to put such good shows together and come up with all that content.

I think it's a shame Chris didn't go- I feel his presence always adds something. Is it to do with the fact that he's BBC Staff, or just on this occasion Newsbeat didn't let him go?

I think all members of Newsbeat are BBC News employees not Radio 1 employees

Really thought it was one of the best things Radio 1 have done for a while. Reminded me more of things they used to do a few years ago. In fact, had reminders of Scott Cam watching it a bit. Greg definitely has a great production team behind him, and they seem to have great chemistry together. Full marks to all of them.

Yeah, it was a shame that Chris Smith couldn't go, but I'm guessing it is because of being part of Newsbeat.

Just noticed on Radio 1's YouTube channel they've put on nights 1, 2 and 4 in full. They're 11 hours long! Nice to see them put the full live camera shows on instead of just the best bits. May give them a watch for bits that I missed.

Fearne has just announced that Greg will be not be on air today which is very unstandable considering what he has done over the last week. Fearne stated 'exhaustion' as the reason for his absence. Dev will sit in from 4pm

Greg is a worthy successor to Scott. Can't wait to see what his breakfast show is like !
