Even at 1PM it was still a shambles, it’s as if Nesta couldn’t hear anything in his headphones. You can hear him tapping the mic and saying 1,2 over the start of a clip... oops!

Ant L 51 Posted August 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Trying to work out what happened. 1Xtra seemed to get some element of the news at 12:45 which cut away to music after the Thomas Cook report. The online schedules show Newsbeat at 13:00 but the recording starts at 12:45 (causing initial confusion when trying to piece this together!). My theory is that at 12:45 both R1 and 1Xtra were due to fade up Newsbeat as usual. Radio 1's feed from Newsbeat failed (as they were on an OB) but it went out fine on 1X. Nesta McGregor could hear the output of R1 (which didn't have him faded up) and not 1Xtra so he kept repeating his opening line assuming no-one could hear him. 1Xtra got the word to cut away from Newsbeat after the Thomas Cook report and re-join at 13:00 instead along with Radio 1.

Ryan Pannell 23 Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 2 mess ups today on Newsbeat... 8:30 this morning on R1 Breakfast with the headline bed 3 times. 2:30 this afternoon on Scott’s show when Steve Holden wasn’t ready...Scott and Chris were trying to get to the bottom of what happened and I’m not actually sure what went wrong here. After the mess up on 25th August and today’s errors, it got me thinking. Since Chris Smith left last month, has there been some changes behind the scenes as to who does what in Newsbeat? Things have gone from smooth to bumpy since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things have gone from smooth to bumpy since then. To be fair, it was nothing to do with Steve Holden. If you listen back to that bulletin on 1Xtra, he was there and did the news as normal. It was the R1 outside broadcast technical team that clearly messed up the link back to the Newsbeat studio in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinglefied 2 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Oh right. I didn’t think Newsbeat was on Asian Network too! interesting. Anyway, here’s a question that’s been in my head for a while now that I’ve been willing to ask: Who thinks it’s time for a new Newsbeat package?

georgeh 4 Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 Also on another note, is it me. are they now putting a highlight package 20-30 minutes before the main news beat. I 've noticed over the last couple of days, or have I just missed before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
