It'll be announced in a few weeks who will take over the Sunday 4-7 slot. Who do we think will take over? I'm sadly thinking 3 hour long Internet Takeover.

Internet Takeover only recently moved to Mondays so it won't be.

Ben Cooper says:

I'm working with the people at CBBC on creating something that will take some of the best content from their channel, and some of our great content, and really focusing on a young, teen audience.

I hope it's not that Cel Spellman kid- having seen a few minutes of Friday Download on CBBC, I can confirm it is godawful. Stilted and awkward don't even begin to describe it. The last time they tried CBBC on Radio 1 it didn't really work - Dick and Dom only lasted about a year. Matt Edmondson is the only one that's made a good transfer, but he'd branched into showbiz stuff from CBBC before he joined R1.

I can't see how Radio 1 are going to keep 7 and 8 year olds listening for this long. It's harder to keep their attention via radio than TV, which is short.

on the grid.

I'm predicting some kind of new format in that slot, but I wouldn't mind too much if Gemma got it. It would reduce her hours significantly, and put her on a fairly irrelevant show, once a week (at a time I don't listen anyway). Meanwhile, someone new (and good) would get Early Breakfast, so it's a win-win. If it does turn out to be the case, I can understand why - Gemma couldn't hack the earlies, and Ben Cooper wasn't happy with her show.

With all the talent emerging, and Radio 1 clearly being the hub of it all, you'd think that there would be more changes to late / early stuff on Radio 1 - Stories, Gemma and Daniel P Carter are all things that are a bit... WRONG.

I have heard a rumour that gemma Cairney might take over the slot with a brand new DJ taking over earlies. Jordan North or Izzi Clarke maybe?

well I was partly right about Gemma anyway !

I don't like the CBBC idea. I would of given Danny Howard that slot. Danny does seem to enjoy the games side of Radio 1 (like Innuendo Bingo and that) so I would like to see him doing that sort of show. He might not want it though considering he is more focused on his dance music.

Yeah, he's a dance DJ and not a radio presenter. I don't like his weekend slot, it doesn't seem to be appropriate to play dance music from 4pm on a Saturday afternoon.

Three hours to Cel Spellman. THREE HOURS.

HE'S A CRAP CBBC TV PRESENTER NOT A RADIO 1 PRESENTER.

"I just hope I can return the favour and help make those car journeys a little more memorable for the listeners with a mix of fun, top tunes and a little bit of cheeky chat!"

Cheeky chat. I think that says it all.

      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

      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

      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
