All next week, Jordan is in for Adele.

Alice is flying solo next weekend as Dev is away. 

On Tuesday 18th, Charlie is off so it’s just Melvin and Rickie. 

On wednesday 19th, Matt and Mollie are in for Greg. 

On Sunday 23rd, Katie is in for Jordan. 

On Thursday 27th, Annie and Jack have a Glastonbury warm up show from 7-11 so Rickie, Melvin and Charlie have been moved from 11-1. 

Finally on Friday 28th, Maya is off and Jordan is covering!

It seems like the final nail is in the coffin for Scott covering breakfast then - he is there this week yet M&M covering so i'd say that's it for him and breakfast, the last official breakfast cover shift he did was 27/12/18 

He took part in the show for the escape room and covered while Greg was taken so not really covering for Greg but kind of 

The lolothon you cant count that as breakfast cover as it's a special 

Thoughts?

Matt and Mollie are also covering Greg for a few days in a couple of weeks - think it’s the Monday and Tuesday after Glastonbury!

Wonder if Greg is presenting any of the coverage from Glasto

ALSO note from Friday 5th July Scott's Dance Anthems have been renamed to Radio 1 Party Anthems 

Also Matt and Mollie are in for Greg 1st July and Matt solo on 2nd July 

I wonder why they're renaming Friday's Dance Anthems... unless it's something more than a rename. I've noticed in recent weeks that classic anthems have been played during the show too.

Just noticed that Clara's show on the week of the 8th July has Greatest Hits from 10am-11am. Wonder what's going on that week to be given a whole week of shows?

Not sure whether it's just gonna be for summer instead of the old summer mixes or whether they're making it a permanent daily thing to bring weekdays in line with the weekend...

Also re Friday night party anthems- I think this may be a permanent name change, dance anthems is well over 7 years old now and R1 seem to love making regular random changes to the wording of show titles. I can also see a brand new intro happening.

If they are making the greatest hits thing permanent everyday then they are clearly squeezing the limits with the 50% new music requirement.

Think it maybe a summer thing at least the summer mixes won’t effect Scott’s show. On a different subject hits radio have annnouced their new breakfast show with flur east James Barr and Greg burns not good when a new radio stations changes its breakfast show in 12 months

Don’t like the choice I think Sarah Jane Crawford should’ve took over with  James Barr and Fluer East not Greg Burns(no offense to him) he looks a bit too old for ‘hits’ radio More like greatest hits radio. I wonder where Dave will go- I noticed Bauer haven’t announced who’s replacing Emma B on magic weekends- maybe Dave will go there?

Scott is off from the 15th-18th July so Dev and Alice are covering for him.

Always enjoy hearing those two, they’ve really come into their own as a duo.  I’d prefer Jordan to cover 1-4 and then to be Grim’s cover on drive when you think about it, the personality duo with a lot of potential should probably get the drive cover, and the standard solo music presenter with some potential should cover afternoons.

It seems to me that they are using the weekend equivelent to cover weekday shows now so breakfast covers breakfast and all

Wonder who will be cover for Matt and Mollie? if they had same holiday used to be Yasser for Dev

Also anyone notice Maya has anthems now 10-11? from Friday its being trailed so wonder if Greatest hits is going to be permenent 10-11 weekdays and Maya is doing anthems

Isn’t Arielle the cover for both Matt and Mollie and Dev and Alice? She’s been used to cover both shows before!

I get the idea with weekend afternoons covering weekday afternoons etc, but it makes no sense doing it blindly like that.

Are they seriously renaming everything to ‘anthems’? 

Seems that way, also tomorrow at 7 Scott has "party anthems" which to me sounds more commercial bangers than the current dance format, maybe so he can throw some older classics in to compete with Heart Dance?

Would be interesed to see if he has had new jingles and sweepers done for this - feels like it could be more like his old "floorfillers" he used to do on Fridays after newsbeat being revived

Remember this is the first personalisation of the Friday driver show for him since he took over, because it has stayed the same format as Greg had since 2015 when he took the chart over - of course 1600-1745 has to be the chart then 1800-1900 is "Scott" for an hour

Would be interested to see if this persoinallisation is going towards Scott and Chris back on drive? and Grimmy out maybe? dreams can come true

    • I see Katie (and Mairead) were out with Jordan tonight.  I don’t listen to the show any longer, I am shocked they are allowed to mention Jordan.
    • At least I do not ask stupid questions…😂
    • I suggest you follow the other DJs too if so, you will learn the hardest working will go further 🤣
    • A simple check on his instagram would answer all your questions , he’s on tour with his wife and the team behind his podcast. I suggest anyone to follow the radio presenters, you will learn a lot about their other jobs and work commitments. 
    • Where is Jamie? It felt like he was settling in when Vick wasn’t on but he’s not been on since last Tuesday now. They’ve not even mentioned him, in fact they’ve mentioned Jordan more than they’ve mentioned him in the last two days.
    • Scott's show is on the road next week, live from Malmö in Sweden on Wednesday and Friday, ahead of Eurovision. As he's doing the semi final coverage on the TV on Tuesday and Thursday alongside Rylan, Gary Davies sits in for him on those days.
    • I don't feel there's so much overlap between M&M and Scott's shows. M&M is of a similar calibre to Scott & Chris on R1, with genuine laugh out loud moments and usually a show packed full of real interesting content. Scott's R2 show is IMO a shadow of the stuff he did on R1 (not his fault, he's doing exactly what station management want), with music and content to appeal to a much older audience.
    • To be fair, Scott & Chris would've still been fine on Radio 1. It was mentioned at the time that Scott's move was very much on Radio 2's part rather than Radio 1 wanting to move them on. That's the one problem that Radio 2 has, trying to appeal to such a wide demographic.. it's the perfect listen for many, but equally a turn off for many others. I think they have the balance fairly right.     
    • I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
