Scott and Chris 24hour Lolathon

Apparently Alice Levine and her "My Dad Wrote A Porno" podcast co-stars will be on after 10pm with "swearing allowed" according to Scott on the breakfast show this morning. Anyone who's heard that podcast will know how hilarious it is: can't wait for 4pm for the whole thing to start, think it's gonna be brilliant!

They are videoing the show, and uploading segments of the lolathon to twitter https://mobile.twitter.com/BBCR1/status/841743548949135360/video/1

I know, but it just seems a bit of a social media overload. A live video feed, like on the Chris Moyles Show, added to the exclusivity and fun. I wanna know what's going on as the songs play! I wanna see who's producing! I wanna watch the goings-on and the way they create such great content!

Was great to hear Scott on after 1600 on drive, and specially knowing he was on the "decks"

I thought the format would be the resident presenter did their show with Scott in the background, but looks like Scott has control of the "decks" and the residents are there just contributing

I think if you can somehow access the 'Watch Live' page, you can watch the feed that is being used to record the Twitter clips. Not sure how you can do that though, I did try earlier on

I used to have the "Live" video feed in a html page on my laptop for exactly this reason, although when the cameras aren't on, you do just get the "This is BBC Radio 1, Our Cameras aren't on at the moment blahh blahh..." so bit disappointing. But they can do things with the cameras independent of them being on the live video output (just like they could record a link with a caller during a song and we'd never know).

The voice over is really irritating and some guests better than others! Great to hear it though. 

Doesn't seem to have the gravitas and excitement of Moyles' show - and why didn't they put a live feed up? :(((

Harry Hill and Lee Nelson on in the last hour. Both massive WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO's, in my opinion!

Really enjoyed Mills being back in his rightful home. I was half expecting Beccy and Chappers to show up for a game of Oh What's Occurring.

Speaking of which, http://www.unofficialmills.co.uk/communities/local_links.php?action=ratelink&catid=1&linkid=1321.

Edit: OMG literally just after I posted this, Scott told that nun joke favourite joke. Coincidence or what.

First total just there: 28,000.

Absolutely loving nighttime Mills. These sort of 24 hour events are just R1 at its absolute best- real event radio, relaxed, edgy, all the DJs chipping in. 

Really coming into its own now at nighttime with more free reign on jokes- some hilarious ones in the last hour or two & getting dirtier lol.

Matt Edmondson & Grimmy have been brilliant on this.

Long time lurker of this forum/site, first time commenter-- and I had to pop in to say how much I'm enjoying this! I live in NZ so it's never made sense for me to listen to Scott's show live due to timezones,  but this is great and works well considering it's the afternoon right now. A few of the jokes have legitimately made me laugh out loud too!

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
