In sure it will stay, as they are investing in new ways of news reading and presenting.

Are there some new reporters and presenters on News beat at the moment?

Chris Smith is on a video journalism course at the moment, could that be one of the new ways?

Also, yes, a few new names have popped up on Newsbeat over the last few months. Think the newbies include Stephan Powell (legend), Cat Collins, Anna Collinson and James Waterhouse (all of the names I can think of that I hadn't heard until recently).

Also Nesta McGregor and Steffan Powell read the afternoon news on Friday??

As stated above, Chris Smith has been on a video journalism course in Leicester for the past couple of weeks and will return on Monday 28 July so Nesta and Steffan have only been sub newsreaders. Frankie McCamley read the news from 1330-1630 yesterday as Steve Holden (main stand-in) was preparing for a big outside bulletin at 1745. I've actually always wondered how they select the newsreaders for the 1330 bulletin and overnight duties. Chris Moyles asked Maddie Lown that question a few years ago and she said it fell to 'whoever was last in the office as the rest were off to lunch'!

I've noticed over the past couple of weeks that whoever does do the 1330 bulletin also does the 2200 bulletin and weekend news. Anna Collinson enjoyed that role last week.

What are the full Newsbeat times of the day? And which are different on 1xtra?

For a weekday I'm pretty sure it's

06:30, 07:00, 07:30, 08:00, 08:30, 09:30, 10:30, 11:30, 12:45, 13:30, 14:30, 15:30, 16:30, 17:00, 17:45, 22:00

1Xtra's the same although I don't think they run a bulletin at 06:30.

You can definitely tell BBC News are making cutbacks already- in the last few days I've heard old names like Nomia Iqbal, Tulip Mazumdar and Tom Bateman doing reports, even though they left Newsbeat a while ago.

Yes, but this is not a sign of cutbacks this is because Nomia was a reporter at a scene- which Newsbeat was reporting on. And Tulip Mazumdar is the BBC News Global Health Reporter and with the big stories in Africa she was

Reporting (I even saw her lots on BBC World News).

      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!

      R1 to R2 transfers

      By Lee E · Posted

      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

      R1 to R2 transfers

      By NathanS · Posted

      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

      Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

      By Lee E · Posted

      Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday.

      As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
