Very strange way to express it @TMD_24. There’s nothing usual about 11am-3pm that week. It’s RMC 30 mins later and 2 hours fifteen longer then Vick and Jordan 30 mins earlier and 30 mins longer. No Dean and Vicky at all obviously making it as far from as usual as possible.

What I meant by that was it had it's usual presenters but in a longer slot.

This is probably a bit further into the future but the commissioning documents for Jack's, Sian and Arielle's new shows are interesting.

https://downloads.bbc.co.uk/radio/commissioning/Commissioning-Brief-10093-Radio-1-New-Artists-Show.pdf (Sian)

https://downloads.bbc.co.uk/radio/commissioning/Comms_Brief_10092_Radio_1_Best_New_Dance.pdf (Arielle)

It looks like the Future Sounds slot is going to be extended to 9pm from Monday-Wednesday but remain 2 hours on a Thursday. Whereas Sian's show is going to be Monday-Tuesday but not confirmed for Wednesday.

Plus, it mentions Best New Dance is going to be live. @Dan18F1 in the chat mentioned Lauren Layfield but the new talent person could do Thursday & Friday Early Breakfast as another option.

This is true @HumphreyAppleby you could have some new talent doing Thursday and Friday early breakfast and Lauren Layfield reuinted with Katie on Life Hacks. I can't see Vick wanting to give her Sundays up for much longer 

You imagine that Sunday is the only day of the week that is totally clear for Vick and Adam to spend the whole day together.  As it is Vick almost never seems to come up to Salford to do the show now.

You really couldn't blame her for giving it up but it's bound to be a bind for her as she seems to really enjoy doing it.  If she didn't, she'd have given it up long ago - not as if she is short of work or money...

Essentially they are bringing back a combination of the Summer/covid/"Iconic 2-6 show" type schedule for that week then?

Maybe your prediction's coming true @ianwilk1999, Lauren on Life Hacks

Lauren and Katie together will be an interesting listen. I did quite like having Cel on Life Hacks just for his perspective on things and balance, so I wouldn't mind a male presenter back on at some point. Sam and Danni were good back when they covered, but I'm happy with them on weekend breakfast at the moment!

    • At least I do not ask stupid questions…😂
    • I suggest you follow the other DJs too if so, you will learn the hardest working will go further 🤣
    • A simple check on his instagram would answer all your questions , he’s on tour with his wife and the team behind his podcast. I suggest anyone to follow the radio presenters, you will learn a lot about their other jobs and work commitments. 
    • Where is Jamie? It felt like he was settling in when Vick wasn’t on but he’s not been on since last Tuesday now. They’ve not even mentioned him, in fact they’ve mentioned Jordan more than they’ve mentioned him in the last two days.
    • Scott's show is on the road next week, live from Malmö in Sweden on Wednesday and Friday, ahead of Eurovision. As he's doing the semi final coverage on the TV on Tuesday and Thursday alongside Rylan, Gary Davies sits in for him on those days.
    • I don't feel there's so much overlap between M&M and Scott's shows. M&M is of a similar calibre to Scott & Chris on R1, with genuine laugh out loud moments and usually a show packed full of real interesting content. Scott's R2 show is IMO a shadow of the stuff he did on R1 (not his fault, he's doing exactly what station management want), with music and content to appeal to a much older audience.
    • To be fair, Scott & Chris would've still been fine on Radio 1. It was mentioned at the time that Scott's move was very much on Radio 2's part rather than Radio 1 wanting to move them on. That's the one problem that Radio 2 has, trying to appeal to such a wide demographic.. it's the perfect listen for many, but equally a turn off for many others. I think they have the balance fairly right.     
    • I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
    • Some similar names to Big Weekend.  Sabrina Carpenter, David Guetta, Perrie, Bradley Simpson, Jax Jones, Caity Baser, Benson Boone, Rudimental. David Guetta is a good name.
