Johnnie Walker's Retiring

[TMD_24]

27th-29th August: Vicky Hawkesworth and Lauren Layfield in for Matt & Mollie.

[Ash101]

Surprised to see Vicky back on afternoons full stop, let alone paired with someone who isn’t Nat. Will just feel like Dean is away!

It’s a real shame Sam & Danni aren’t being given a run out on afternoons when both Matt & Mollie are away.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Sam and Danni have been booked to do drive that week as Vick is definitely off and then Katie is also off for one of the weeks that Vick is, although it’d probably make more sense to put Jamie with one of Vicky and Lauren and then have Sam and Danni on Going Home.

The more I think about it the more I think Sam and dani are getting weekend afternoons soon with James doing weekend breakfast

There would be literally no point I think moving Sam & Danni to weekend afternoons. They’ll be the next going home or breakfast hosts imo

I can only assume they're genuinely undecided who's taking over, these month long rotations are presumably trials to see who's best. If it was Danny Beard, even if they couldn't take over till a later date, they'd still be able to announce it.

Can't really see these as trials - each of them have done enough in the past for them to make a choice, and we all know James is by far the best! I suspect there's more to it and a good reason why we don't know yet...

Been thinking this for a while now

[R1Fan1]

I think the presenter of that slot will be coming straight from another station, potentially from within the BBC like Nikita. I notice Swarzy is covering a weekend slot in a few weeks, I wonder if she’d be another name they’re considering, and they’re waiting for a point to make all of the changes at once.

Unless they’re waiting until January, it won’t be Sam and Danni because they’re booked in on Friday EB until then and they wouldn’t have put them on that slot if they were planning to move them halfway through the given tenure.

[Dan18F1]

Personally, I wouldn’t be surprised if we get more than a weekend afternoon host announced in the next schedule changes and they are potentially waiting for everything to fall into place to then make a big announcement and launch a new schedule in November or January for example. 
 

Because not only will the weekend slot need filling, there is the new R1 spin off station being launched ‘this autumn’, which I can see the likes of Ore, Nat, James etc being part of and I wonder if any of those shows will be simulcasted on the main station. There is then Mollie’s maternity leave which I can see them wanting to cover, and then there’s questions about whether they do something with the Power Down Playlist now that there’s no R1 Relax anymore, could they put something different in that slot? 
So I think management might be waiting to be able to sort a few things out at the same time. 

[TMD_24]

25th August: Christian Carlisle joins Jess Iszatt to present Introducing highlights at Reading & Leeds.

26th August: Same schedule but instead it appears Live Lounge Day will be Top 25 Covers.

[Dan18F1]

Next weeks Going Home schedule:

Monday: Just Vick

Tuesday: Vick and Jamie

Wednesday: Jamie and Sam and Danni 

Thursday: Sam and Danni

This was taken from the At Home podcast today. It is assumed that Sam and Danni are covering Wednesday and Thursday because both Vick and Katie are off.

[R1Fan1]

Sam and Danni in for Greg on Tuesday.

[Ash101]

And there was me wondering why they weren’t covering for Matt & Mollie 😆

They are on every day next week anyway!

[Darren m]

They on Monday aswell they will be really tired by next sun

Dunno where you're getting this from. The 10:30 and 15:30 bullitens were 2 minutes in length as normal...

Edit: Apologies, you're right. I wonder why they've changed it?

 

[Noah]

This is to start from Monday 9th September

Newsbeat times on Radio1 are very strange

Maybe the same purpose as those one-minute bulletins when Jordan took over Capital Breakfast - if bulletins from 1030 to 1630 get extended there will still be six 2-min and six 3-min bulletins so they can meet their quota.

Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 8th September.

[Lily Georgia]

Rickie, Melvin & Charlie are on air 10.30-12.45 on Friday 4th October.  I'm guessing October must be Live Lounge month and they'll be on air on Fridays.

[Dan18F1]

And the 1-4 slot is currently show-less. I reckon we’re very close to an announcement coming now for that slot!
