I also think we'll get 3 weeks of Scott on Breakfast which leads me into my next question; will Scott use his breakfast package which is basically Grimmys but with the name changed to Scott's or will he just use his generic afternoon jingles, like when he covered between Moyles and Grimmy and milk it being the "shortest breakfast show ever" except if this is longer than five shows it won't have been

I reckon he will, because the circumstances are different - first of all because it will be slightly more long term than in 2012, but also because in 2012, "The Radio 1 Breakfast Show" didn't exist - it had been "The Chris Moyles Show" for the 8 1/2 years previous, so Scott HAD to use his own jingles because there simply weren't any generic breakfast jingles with his name on them, only "The Chris Moyles Show with Scott Mills" jingles (Scott also did the same the last time he covered for Chris, when the show was wrapping up IIRC). This time, it's still The Radio 1 Breakfast Show, the only thing that's changing is Nick Grimshaw is being swapped for Greg James. So my guess is that in the interim Scott will use his existing Radio 1 Breakfast Show jingles (but maybe have some new ones for when/if he covers Greg).

I am pretty sure the last cover he did he used the CM jingles, I am sure I listened to that podcast here recently

Anyway yes that makes sense and then they'll use the new Jingles after

And like Dev and Alice he will have to also remember hes not "in" for anyone so cannot say "It's Scott here in for Nick Grimshaw/Greg James" so I wonder if will be a business as usual approach as in he will do Grimmys format or just his own show

Noticed Alice and Dev have totally dropped all of Gregs stuff on drive

Good to see Radio 1 trying out some new conbinations. Arielle Free & Will Best could work well together. I really enjoy listening to Will Best mainly because I remember him doing the chart on 4Music and various other shows. He has done some cover work for Heart as well but I think he could work better on Radio 1.

Not sure whether it's been pointed out yet but Jordan's on twice tomorrow - he's doing 4-6am and then 1-4pm with Molly King (as he is all weekend).

And professional Adele Roberts soundalike Katie Thisleton is in for Maya on Friday but not Saturday.

I have a feeling that Jordan on at 4 might be a mistake. At the end of his show today, he said he’s back at 1 tomorrow and it wouldn’t really make sense for Will to do every day this week apart from Friday. And Adele has actually been on this week so wouldn’t make much sense for her to have tomorrow off.

It might be Adele but if it's Will Best then even Will Best doesn't know it - I was listening this morning and he said several times it was his last show in this stint of cover. He had quite a lengthy conversation about it with Luciano, in fact. Don't think Adele said when she'd be back at the end of her show today.

Has anyone ever done 8 shows in a week before.

In fact is Jordan r1s first ever cover dj. Although he only has 1 show he is on cover almost every week and a great listen.

I think the cover is now:

Breakfast-scott

Clara-adele

Scott-jordan/Matt & Mollie

Drive-Dev and Alice/Jordan

Annie-mistajam

Charlie -Dev

Huw- Phil

Chart - jam / Jordan

Weekend brek - 1 co-host

Life hacks - 1 cohost

Dance anthems - jordan / Adele

Greatest hits - cel/ katie

Matt - jordan

Adele - jordan

I have just started as the "cover" DJ on a local community station, the reason is my job is shift work s cant take the regular slots that are going, so Iv'e said to the station management I can do cover work when needed, just finished training, one more co hosting show to do with the regular drive time guy and I'll be away

I'm not expecting to get near the breakfast show mind, i'd think they'll put the drive guy on that and me on drive

That week that Scott and Chris are covering breakfast also has Matt and Mollie covering Scott’s Show and on Monday Arielle Free covering for Adele. Also, on the Wednesday evening, Dev is covering Charlie on the 8th and Jordan is also doing the Chart on friday in for Scott.

It would appear WB 20th Aug that Scott and Chris are on Breakfast again (although the website still says Grimmy :D) and Jordan will be covering their show. Jordan’s also doing weekend breakfast on 19th, with Maya covering his normal show.

Some interesting scheduling on Friday 24th:

10:00 Radio 1s Greatest Hits with Maya and Jordan

12:00 Greg James live from Reading festival 

2:00 Matt and Mollie live from reading festival 

I presume that Scott is doing a show live from Reading later in the weekend as I think he announced that he was doing a show from there didn’t he?

Just caught up with the end of Chris' Friday podcast and he's on with Jordan on Monday

Ooh, that's a first. This could be good. It'll be a totally different dynamic, because unlike Scott, Matt, Dev or Alice, Jordan's younger than Chris.

    • I think Jack Saunders if in for the long haul may mature and develop as a presenter with the opportunities to do big interviews and features. I think I really enjoyed him doing the late version of the indie show the presentation style of future artists got repetitive of presenting as if every show is the first time the shows on air with over explaining the purpose. But think this show could have a different approach 
    • Not a fan of Jack Saunders, but ...  This is a marked improvement over Clara Amfo (almost anything would have been) - And it's also better than what JS was doing in his previous slot - He's definitely been listening back to Zane Lowe, and drawing lessons from that.
    • @lochnessa what an incredible feature, really do miss the games from that show
    • Life Hacks is on 20.00-22.00 on Monday 13th, Tuesday 14th & Wednesday 15th May - in place of Future Artists and Future Pop.
    • Brother or Lover? WhooooOOOOooooeoeehrheroooooooooo.
    • What's your morning routine when you're working?
    • I feel like we all know how they'll answer that!
    • Makes sense, I always assumed they all went for 1D members regardless.
    • Do you prefer doing Capital Breakfast to Radio 1 or the other way round?
    • Jesus christ, Olivia Rodrigo was around 3 years ago!?! I thought she was only born in 2019. Anyway. They are doing it to rival commercial networks, on the main 2 lists anyway with rotating them more. Which all in all is a pit of misery. I'm sick to bloody death of Stick Season, it's an utter bag of mediocre wank that makes me even prefer James Blunt circa 2005. Radio 1 still is more expansive however, loved stuff they play and make their own early days, like Jungle Back on 74 like last year.  They can't lose doing stuff that, or else they become bland like everyone else. They have done that for many years though. I heard a song on a March 2001 aircheck from Chris Moyles recently and rediscovered a song by Kings Of Convenience, called Toxic Girl. Totally lost over 25 years but totally love it like it's new. Radio 1 has always played the big time pop stuff since your nan was 3. But they always have and still do throw something on the playlists that isn't what everyone else has. I hope they continue to do that as it sets them apart. 
    • I think they are looking too much into this and need to get a proper job where you have to get up at 5am.
    • Zayn's current song isn't on the R1 playlist so would be odd for him to do an interview I guess, not sure either would want it?
    • You have both presented together before your show on Capital. Have you spent time together as friends since, or is the reunion like getting to know one another all over again?   I’m a long time listener in my mid 30s and now outside the R1 target audience age… Chris is into barbecuing and Jordan is into air frying, have you both noticed a change in the other since the days of R1? And are you under any pressure to be on trend at Capital? 
    • What do you both miss most about your time at R1?
    • How are you finding the early mornings, and having your afternoons free? Was it easy getting to grips with a different desk and play out system? Do you have any upcoming OBs and anything else exciting planned for the show that you can exclusively share with Unofficialmills? 😀
