Ore Olukoga is on 13.00-16.00 on Friday 31st May and Friday 7th June.  Nikita Kanda is doing Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd June.

That’s two names who probably won’t be doing that slot permanently then.

I would be pretty confident that if they keep avoiding using James Cusack on that slot over the next few weeks, then it will probably be him that gets the show permanently!

Looks like there’s gonna be no interim between Dean and Vicky and Matt and Mollie as the former are still there on the 27th June. 
 

We know that’s also the date of Arielle’s last EB, so I wonder if there’ll be an interim between her and Dean taking over. I suspect there’ll be at least a week with Ore.

I wonder if this means James is the new host of the afernoon show then 

It’s still under the ‘Summer on Radio 1’ title so if anything unfortunately I think it makes him less likely to take on the slot. 
 

I also notice they’ve updated Danny Beard’s photo despite him only having 8 shows left… or does he have something else on the horizon?

They seem to have updated Ore Olukoga’s picture as well despite him not even having a show so it might be nothing to read into.

Let's hope this is the case. If Danny stays past the end of this month, Aled will be making a ridiculous decision. No offence but quite simply Danny is not cut out for the job.

Interesting to see Newsbeat presenters cover a show, although I think Pete Allison used to do some cover work for Radio 1 about 10 years ago?

Yeah Its understandable given Life Hacks show description being the "Radio 1 Social Action show" that they will lean towards journalists instead of just general entertainment cover presenters. That I know all of the regular presenters and several of the covers have been or are still journalists because its more needed with the sensitivity and awareness of the issues discussed. Though Sam and Danni did cover it a few times and they are much more in the catergory of general cover but for all I know one or both of them have professional/academic journalism qualifications. Its one of these things where its slightly unexpected but not a problem, given that Newsbeat is already more chatty, friendly etc than most news by a large amount

    • 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.
