Zayn Malik takes over Radio1 this Wednesday from 8pm - 10pm instead of Future Pop

14th December Lauren Redfern in for Nat O'Leary with Vicky.

The bosses must've liked Spoony on drive, he's sitting in again Wednesday 17th to Friday 19th December. He's been a decent listen this week. It's a shame OJ doesn't appear on daytime as much now. I hope he hasn't been permanently sidelined as Sara's cover. 

W/C 15th December Jerry doing Going Home all week with Katie. Most likely confirms my theory that Jamie's last show of the year is on the 25th November. (Unless he is involved in any Christmas pre-records) Maia Beth doing Future Pop on the 17th December. Dean in for Greg on the 19th December, the Anthems show at 10am is a giveaway.

Spoony is in for Sara on Monday and Tuesday next week as well, with Mark Goodier on The Good Groove. Shaun Keaveny in for Liza Tarbuck on Saturday 22nd November, with Paddy O'Connell sitting in on the 29th. Gary Davies in for Vernon Kay on Monday 1st, Tuesday 2nd and Wednesday 3rd December. Spoony in for Trevor Nelson on Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th December.. with Melvin Odoom on The Good Groove.

For more chaos I nominate Chris Moyles

For the total chaos I nominate Greg James for the next DG!

When do we find out who the new DJs are for Crimbo Limbo Week? WHOOOOOO? 

I suppose it’s possible that the next head of the station might want to get rid of some of the older faces such as Greg, RMC and Danny Howard, whether this is for right or wrong.

Maia Beth doing Future Pop on the 10th December.

Wonder if/when Aled moves on from Radio 1 there’ll be another big raft of schedule changes - if you look at when both he and Ben Cooper started and then go forward a couple years it’s huge change in both cases.

Looking forward to finding out the 22-25 schedule, three full weekdays of “Christmas week” to fill.

7th December Shanequa Paris is listed to return to Life Hacks and the Charts First Look (Not sure if this will stick) W/C 8th December Jerry in for Jamie with Katie I wonder if Jamie is done for the year when it gets to the end of November? I know Sophie is pregnant so maybe she's expecting soon? We shouldn't be too far away from getting the schedule up until Christmas. It's where this thread gets exciting!

I think it would be unlikely for him to go straight to director general, but I could definitely see him as Director of Music or Sounds very soon

Anyone think Aled would make a brilliant DG? He must be coming close to the end of his tenure at Radio 1.
