Because there will be a Live Lounge performance each Friday throughout October, Rickie, Melvin and Charlie are hosting the Friday slot instead of Nat and Vicky which I believe they also did in previous years, so will do 30 minutes of Anthems from 10:30.

Wednesday 17th September 

Mo Ayoub in for Benji B

Wednesday 24th September 

Jack Saunders is hosting New Music Live 2025 in Cardiff from 8-11pm so no Future Pop show that evening.

Friday 26th September 

Minah Shannon in for Nat, hosting with Vicky from 10:30-12:45.

Not sure if we've heard this particular pairing before, I know Minah has been on with Nat before though.

Does anyone know why on The Radio1 Dance Station they are only broadcasting Europe's Biggest Dance Show from 6pm - 10pm? And also on the Radio1 Dance Station why aren't they broadcasting Arielle's Thursday Night Show

I think this is because the new edition of Pete Tong's weekly pre-recorded show which usually goes out at this time on Radio 1 is instead airing on R1 Dance from 10pm-12am. Similar thing happened when Glastonbury was on, where Pete's show was on at 9pm on R1D, although on that occasion it was repeated on Radio 1 at 2am on a Monday morning! No such repeat this time other than a couple on R1D.

As for not simulcasting Arielle's Thursday night show, not sure either. Seems to have been the case since this Thursday just gone and for the next few weeks where Dance Party Warm Up with Danny Howard is on from 6-8pm and followed by a classic Essential Mix.

I don't think there's any definitive rule or need for programmes to be simulcasted in their entirety though. Obviously they would want to air a big dance related show like Europe's Biggest Dance Show on their dance station but doesn't have to be every second of it, it will still be available to listen to on the main station. Suppose it is a similar idea to how they don't have to match Anthems on their Anthems station if Radio 1 is also airing one of those shows. Especially with the channels being next to each other on DAB now, having different music on each station is more enjoyable as a listener. I don't miss the days of R1 and 1xtra simulcasting for hours on a Saturday night for example.

Radio 1 presenters are freelance surprised about Sam and Danni doing it can understand the likes of Jodie and Maia though. I think it’s also part of BBC reducing costs paying cheaper fees but in return removing certain exclusivity rules

It's definitely not true. The only source of this is this wikipedia (the source it quotes on there doesn't even exist), and why would multiple Radio 1 DJs broadcast on a local community radio station in Sterling, Scotland that has RAJAR listening figures of 39,000. I can't believe people on here are even entertaining the idea that this is real.

    • Lauren Layfield sits in Matt Edmondson on Monday 23rd Feb & Tuesday 24th Feb
    • Dean is in for Greg on Friday 27th February.
    • It doesn’t look like he’s doing any Mondays from now on? He’s not on the next 3 at least. So the schedule currently is: Monday - Vick and Katie Tuesday - Katie and Jamie Wednesday and Thursday - Katie and Jerry
    • That's correct. Vick according to the schedule is Mondays only for now and Jamie is Monday-Tuesday with the schedule both saying he's in and on not in on Wednesdays. 
    • Absolutely LOVED the 1tros! Listening back to this brings back lots of memories! Thank you for posting 
    • Spoony in for Sara Cox on Wednesday 25th February.
    • Emil has posted a story on Instagram saying good luck to the returning team next week. Vick, Jamie and Katie are all tagged. So all three likely back together on Monday.  Vick also been back filming Country File today. 
    • Scott opened Thursday by immediately clocking the pace of the inbox, saying it was “one of those mornings where you can tell people have woken up ready to talk.” Ellie Brennan and Tina Daheley were both in studio, with Scott checking in on them and joking that “we haven’t even warmed up yet and you’re all already in full voice.” The early links were light, with Scott narrating what was coming up and reminding listeners they were heading into “a proper Thursday show.” There were quick resets, music breathing space and familiar back-announcing, with Scott repeatedly acknowledging how fast messages were landing and half-laughing that “this is already a lot before seven.” Ellie noted that voice notes were stacking up unusually early, while Tina commented that people seemed keen to respond to each other as much as the programme. Motherhood chat, but not a phone-in The main theme emerged around motherhood and social media expectations, introduced by Scott reading a listener message about feeling like she was “constantly failing compared to what I see online.” Scott paused on it, saying “this comes up a lot, doesn’t it,” but was careful to keep the show moving rather than letting it settle into a single-issue phone-in. Ellie talked about how curated feeds distort reality, while Tina pointed out that “nobody posts the day where everything went wrong.” Scott reframed the discussion several times, reminding listeners that “you’re hearing highlights, not real life,” before deliberately breaking the run with music and a reset, saying they’d “come back to this — but not all at once.” Voice notes, relief and shared laughs As voice notes came in, the tone varied. Some were reflective, others lighter, with Scott reacting in the moment rather than letting each one sit heavily. When one mum admitted she didn’t enjoy every moment, Scott replied simply, “you’re allowed to feel like that,” before immediately moving on to the next message to stop it lingering. Ellie noted quietly that a lot of messages ended with apologies — “sorry if this sounds awful” — which Scott picked up on, saying, “you all keep apologising — you don’t need to.” He then undercut the intensity by joking that “this has turned into group therapy before 7am,” before laughing and playing a record. Listeners responded to each other as much as the show, which Scott acknowledged on air, saying it felt like “people talking to people rather than just talking to us,” while still steering the programme forward. Pause for Thought and breathing space Pause for Thought slotted neatly into the running order, continuing the theme without deepening it. The speaker focused on compassion, comparison and letting go of unrealistic expectations. Scott thanked them afterwards, saying it “fits with what people have been saying this morning,” and deliberately left a short pause before moving on. Ellie observed that the slot felt like “a natural breather” in the show, which Scott agreed with, before resetting the mood with music and lighter links. The handover Scott handed over to Vernon Kay by briefly outlining what the morning had been about. Vernon picked up on the listener response, saying it sounded like “one of those shows where people really got involved.” Scott agreed, replying that “they really did today,” and mentioned the volume of messages still waiting.
