Just been announced that Victoria Easton off of Dan & Phil has been promoted... to the Breakfast Show! A bold decision; I suspect she'll be a silent producer though.

This got me thinking; who produces what on Radio 1 now?

All contributions welcome ;)

Breakfast show - Matt Fincham, Fiona Hanlon, apparently now Victoria Easton

Fearne Cotton - Sarah Dray, someone called JC maybe?

Scott Mills - Will Foster and Chris Sawyer. Obvs. Why did Cara never come back by the way?

Greg James - Pippa Taylor and Travis Walby

Dev - Someone called Lanray or something. Referred to on air as Producer Lanners. Maybe Gary Pounder as well.

Matt Edmondson - Chris Cox

Alice Levine - Ian Chaloner

Gemma Cairney - Rodery Something or other

Those are all the ones I know.

It has been confirmed that Matt Fincham off of the breakfast show will leave at the end of the week to produce Annie Mac's evening show. This means that the production team on the breakfast show will be Victoria Easton as producer, Fiona as assistant produceer and a team assistant.

Bit of an odd move that one, breakfast producer to evenings. Last time there was producer changes on breakfast with Matt leaving and going elsewhere we had a change in the breakfast show.

That's what I thought.

Maybe Annie is going to do the Breakfast show?!!

Perhaps, although would be odd to change it now that Annie has just got the evening show. Saying that Clara had just got the Chart Show!

I wonder whether they have given Grimmy a new producer ready for a breakfast swap with Gregg? New slot time, new producing team?

That's a shame - I think Sawyer was behind a lot of the comedy on the show of late I hope his departure doesn't mark a decline in quality. The new AP is Roushan Allam (off of being left in a room with the Saturdays).

Grimmy's zoo format sounds a bit flat of late - since Ian and Matt Fincham left, it's just become Grimmy and Fiona and it sounds a bit lonely. Vic doesn't seem to have much of an on-air presence, although they have been involving Tina in the general chat more, which I like. Tina sounds much more relaxed now than she did on The Chris Moyles Show, and even at the beginning of Grimshaw's breakfast show. Hopefully Chris will be a good on air addition, he seems very funny but never really got the chance to speak on Scott's show.

    • The irony of Jordan moving to Capital Radio is it seems to speed up Greg's eventual move from Radio 1 Breakfast. I think Greg's show is great, but he hasn't had any significant competition in his time on mornings. Now there is there'll be more scrutiny of the figures, he might be more tempted to move, which is probably what Jordan wanted before he left!
    • I think Jack Saunders if in for the long haul may mature and develop as a presenter with the opportunities to do big interviews and features. I think I really enjoyed him doing the late version of the indie show the presentation style of future artists got repetitive of presenting as if every show is the first time the shows on air with over explaining the purpose. But think this show could have a different approach 
    • Not a fan of Jack Saunders, but ...  This is a marked improvement over Clara Amfo (almost anything would have been) - And it's also better than what JS was doing in his previous slot - He's definitely been listening back to Zane Lowe, and drawing lessons from that.
    • @lochnessa what an incredible feature, really do miss the games from that show
    • Life Hacks is on 20.00-22.00 on Monday 13th, Tuesday 14th & Wednesday 15th May - in place of Future Artists and Future Pop.
    • Brother or Lover? WhooooOOOOooooeoeehrheroooooooooo.
    • What's your morning routine when you're working?
    • I feel like we all know how they'll answer that!
    • Makes sense, I always assumed they all went for 1D members regardless.
    • Do you prefer doing Capital Breakfast to Radio 1 or the other way round?
    • Jesus christ, Olivia Rodrigo was around 3 years ago!?! I thought she was only born in 2019. Anyway. They are doing it to rival commercial networks, on the main 2 lists anyway with rotating them more. Which all in all is a pit of misery. I'm sick to bloody death of Stick Season, it's an utter bag of mediocre wank that makes me even prefer James Blunt circa 2005. Radio 1 still is more expansive however, loved stuff they play and make their own early days, like Jungle Back on 74 like last year.  They can't lose doing stuff that, or else they become bland like everyone else. They have done that for many years though. I heard a song on a March 2001 aircheck from Chris Moyles recently and rediscovered a song by Kings Of Convenience, called Toxic Girl. Totally lost over 25 years but totally love it like it's new. Radio 1 has always played the big time pop stuff since your nan was 3. But they always have and still do throw something on the playlists that isn't what everyone else has. I hope they continue to do that as it sets them apart. 
    • I think they are looking too much into this and need to get a proper job where you have to get up at 5am.
    • Zayn's current song isn't on the R1 playlist so would be odd for him to do an interview I guess, not sure either would want it?
    • You have both presented together before your show on Capital. Have you spent time together as friends since, or is the reunion like getting to know one another all over again?   I’m a long time listener in my mid 30s and now outside the R1 target audience age… Chris is into barbecuing and Jordan is into air frying, have you both noticed a change in the other since the days of R1? And are you under any pressure to be on trend at Capital? 
    • What do you both miss most about your time at R1?
