Getting known names on weekend presenting roles is nothing new although I think this monthly double act with Matt is a good way of radio 1 seeing what known names also make good radio presenters and how the audience warm to them through these taster shows. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see one of the names lined up to present with Matt his year,  getting their own show in the future.

Hello everyone Aled here, Head of Programmes at Radio 1. Thank you for all your passion for Scott,  Chris and Radio 1 - the station’s success relies on fans like yourselves caring about radio and

If she's good I'm willing to change my mind, but until proven otherwise can we refer to Maya Jama within the context of Scott's show as the homewrecker?

I used to work at a radio station (not R1, think smaller!) so I have a bit of an insight into this, although I'm sure it varies. Where I worked, around half of the presenters were staff and half

Maya's link into the news just now:

HAIM - The Wire is interrupted before the end with the news jingle. No comment from Maya. No back announcement of the song. A few seconds of the news jingle. She eventually speaks and says "it's time for Newsbeat with Hannah Morris". 

So not only did she screw up the backtiming, crash the song with the news jingle and forget to announce the name of the song or trail ahead - she managed to get the name of the newsreader - the same newsreader she's already introduced twice today without incident - wrong. 

I've gotta stop posting about Maya Jama. It's a problem. Promise this is the last one. It was just quite funny.

It's Molly King's last show with Matt today (shame), he just said that it's Example from next week. Wasn't it supposed to be Scarlett Moffatt next? I think she's doing a show on Heart over the bank holiday weekend, so maybe that's got something to do with it?

Delighted to see Jordan covering Greg. Long over-due. Him and Alice are just a million times more entertaining than Dev.

Have to agree Jordan has brought some fresh energy into covering Greg's show and is more in tune with the usual style of programme.

Jordan absolutely smashed it - got better and better each day, sounded right at home and especially loved Saving Grace on Thursday. Hope they let him do it again sometime.

Also Adele's on again at 1pm today, her second show of the day.

I think Jordan may well take breakfast once grimmmy leaves 

This would be good but surely he's too much of an unknown and it's probably too early in his career. Although I'm assuming Grimmy goes some time soon. He could still be around for Radio 1's 100th birthday.

Phil Taggart also sounding good in for Annie Mac tonight :)

I'm glad he seems to be out of the cold at last.

Right, this is very random but I was thinking earlier that since the rest of the weekend schedule has had a refresh, I think the Sunday evening one really needs one so I think it really should be like this: 

4:00 Life Hacks with Katie and Dr Radha (continues until 7, get rid of the awful Most Played Chart and also get rid of Cel)

7:00 Radio 1’s best of the week with Scott Mills (would also be like a request show type thing, could then get rid of the Greatest Hits show as they would be on this show)

9:00 Rock Show (Doesn’t need to be in such a prominent slot and doesn’t need to be as long)

11:00 Phil Taggart (Like his show currently is, just slightly shorter)

This would also line up with the rest of the week. Any suggestions welcome?

What I’d do is give Jordan North both Greatest Hits shows, and move Maya Jama to a new Sunday 7-9 slot. Totally agree with you about making the rock show 9-11 and Phil Taggart 11-1.

 

It’s got to the point where it seems as though Phil doesn’t really know what to do with the last hour of the show. When he first took the show over the last hour was mellow music like the first two hours. But then around the time he lost his old Thursday 9-10 show the last hour of the Sunday one just strangely derailed into rock and alternative which really didn’t seem appropriate under the title “The chillest show on planet Earth”. I can only assume that move was to compensate for his lost airtime on a Thursday where he’d normally have played that music, because when the Specialist Chart came into existence last year the final hour returned to something of a more mellow theme, albeit not quite as much as 10-midnight.

I hope so, Dev is boring. Jordan did the end of year chart as well so at least he has done it before!

Whats suprising about this is that Scott is not filling in now hes the new host - and Jordan doing his show or earlies to allow Adele to do 1-4

Now that the changes have been announced, perhaps they want to keep Scott off the chart until he officially takes over. He'll probably have some new imaging to play with too, which will be a shame as I like the current chart imaging.

      Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter.

      Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?

      Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.

      Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!

      R1 to R2 transfers

      By Lee E · Posted

      I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days

      By NathanS · Posted

      Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.

      With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.

      Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now

      Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

      By Lee E · Posted

      Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday.

      As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
