Vicky is in for Katie this Friday

And Nat O'Leary on Sunday.

Interesting as part of the main team, Vicky is getting used for cover rather than Sam & Danni, Emil or James Cuisack.

Katie is doing Life Hacks solo on Sunday.

 

Friday 16th & Saturday 17th June

Nat O'Leary sits in for Katie

Monday 26th June

Ace sits in for Victoria Jane

How interesting in his long time career at the BBC (well ten years or just under) would be Ace’s first only time presenting exclusively on radio 1 without a simulcast with 1Xtra. I’m surprised that 1 Xtra aren’t carrying a repeat of Victoria Jane’s show in their 10PM-Midnight slot on either Wednesday and Thursday

I’m surprised that 1 Xtra aren’t carrying a repeat of Victoria Jane’s show in their 10PM-Midnight slot on either Wednesday and Thursday 

Ace has been on 1Xtra on and off almost since the beginning of 1Xtra as a station, he was there at station launch in 2002 but he was there in very early days 2002/2003. I remember he was saying this on his show at the time of the 1Xtra birthday celebrations last year and trying to calculate how many hours of radio he had done with help from listeners and his producers lol. He had a couple of breaks of a few years but its well over a decade combined together. Considering how long he's been there Its weird that he hasn't popped up in any situation, particularly as he could cover RMC in the way MistaJam used to cover for Greg.

 

Its one of the baffling things about the separation of 1 and 1Xtra, as Radio 1 has played more Black music and particularly more Black UK music (100% homegrown as it was called on 1Xtra years ago) they are less reliant on 1Xtra. Apart from when Nadia Jae or Remi or somebody will pop up on Greg's show doing what's my age again they feel very separate. Even before the cutbacks of the 11pm-1am slot and axing three of Snoochie Shy's shows it feels like putting Future Soul on at some time in the night on 1Xtra like they already do with Benji's show is natural. And with Wednesday and Thursday free, it makes even more sense to have done that. The other confusing thing with the 1Xtra schedule is why they're not repeating Tiffany Calver's new show in the middle of the night, considering they know she's a fit with the audience and her new show is more general specialist rather than just rap which feels like its even more fit with R1

Mollie is solo on Friday 30th June, Saturday 1st & Sunday 2nd July.

There's a new Anthems slot, 15.00-15.30 during Dean & Vicky's show Monday to Thursday, starting on Monday 3rd July.

Guessing the weekday Anthems slot at 3pm is going to be the new slot for July and August as they typically do one everyday during the summer months. I noticed that there is no 10am-11am Anthems slot so perhaps that is being changed to one 30 mins Anthems per Day.

I think it makes sense to do that. Two slots as a wall between Greg and mid-mornings always seemed like overkill. It also meant that the end to Greg's show each day felt a bit boring and RMC had an excuse to do even less actual entertainment than the little they were doing anyway. Dean and Vicky seems like a better time to do it as well as being shorter. Although, ideally the anthems slot should be in the middle of their slot with normal show either side. That way they don't have the start or end of their show stolen as they're the bits they should get to do the most the way they want (i.e. with personality and entertainment).

    • 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!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • 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 
    • 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 
    • 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.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
    • Nat and Vicky are being sent to Ibiza this year. They’ll be live on Friday 1st August from 1-4pm.     
    • Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.
    • There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1.
