Not on R1, Maybe Radio X or 6Music would take him for primetime 

He could take over from Annie Mac at some point whenever she leaves, he’s a lot younger than her so it could happen

I think Abbie McCarthy will take that slot if Huw doesn’t leave before Annie

the More I think about it the more it seems that Jordan will take over early breakfast at some point this year with Adele maybe taking his show 

I think Arielle might take it over at some point this year. Adele seems to have had quite a lot of time off recently unless she’s just saved up a lot of holiday leave and she’s using it all now.

I'm not sure Adele will go anywhere anytime soon actually - she's doing a really good job on that show, has really made it her own, and unlike most other people who do that slot, seems to love getting up at that time of day. Due to her age, earlies is probably the furthest her R1 career will go but I don't think there's any pressing need to take her off. After all the work Jordan's done, getting early breakfast world be a bit below him - when he does make daytime, he'll go straight to drive.  Arielle will probably get Jordan's show (and maybe Maya's too) - she's like him but earlier on in her career. She hasn't done any daytime cover yet IIRC.

Arielle will probaly get a shift in about two to three years maybe more just think how long it took Jordon to get weekends 

I really like her as a presenter. I don’t get why they don’t just say bye to Maya already she wouldn’t mind she’d be  doing loads more telly. 

As for Adele she’s getting towards Radio 2 or commercial. She takes holidays off really regularly. 

I want Jordon to take drivetime and Prehaps Arielle could have the early breakfast show.

Here’s what I’d like to see at R1 soon..

Arielle is already in her 30s, surely Radio 1 should recruit younger people for brand new talent?  Totally agree with you about Jordan and drivetime.  With Maya the only thing I can say for her is she’s relevant at the moment, and that’s why she’s there.  She’s there to attract the target audience.

She’s doing fine, I agree, no rush to take her off.  But when some up and coming talent needs the slot, that’d be time for her to go.  I think because Arielle is already a similar age to the likes of Greg and Nick, she could get one of the weekend slots, but I doubt anything further than that.

I'd go for.

Mon-Fri (no more weekend on Fridays)

4am: someone new from student radio or somewhere like that

6:30am: Dev and Alice (for a couple years, temporarily before someone else can step up, they're much more on target than Greg, who sounds way dull for Radio 1 Breakfast these days, his drive show used to be brilliant, and while Dev and Alice are far from groundbreakingly amazing, it'd suit the audience with some good ideas, big branding and experienced production, and they might shine)

10am: Katie Thisleton (bang on target, fresh, would suit the format)

1pm: Cel Spellman (I know people aren't keen on here but i think he's got massive potential, and is bang on target for the audience)

4pm: Jordan North (deserves it massively)

Jordon hands down is the next Scott.  He’s been slowly building up his rep as the R1 supply teacher and should be on daytime by now. When Scott leaves I want Jordon to have his show as I feel he’s a worthy successor

Jordan should get drive, he deserves a bigger slot than afternoons at this point.

In many ways you could turn out to be spot on about him being the next Scott.  He’ll probably get to drivetime straight from where he is now, and I doubt he’ll ever make breakfast, so his Radio 1 career could pan out similar, although I seriously doubt he’ll last 20 years.

Few schedule changes in the next few weeks: 

• Rickie, Melvin and Charlie begin on April 1st which means that this week is the last week of the 8th. 

• Arielle is in for Adele from the 1st to the 4th of April and Adele is in for Clara that week. 

• On the 8th April, Jordan is in for Grimmy and I’m guessing that’s all week. 

• Also that week, Phil Taggart is in for Annie (apart from Friday when it’s Danny Howard)

• Finally, on Friday 12th, Jordan is in for Maya.

has Gregg had any time off except Christmas and his wedding??

Nope, I’m thinking he’ll take a holiday quite soon, maybe around Easter? He had quite a few holidays when he did drive so it does surprise me a bit.

He'll probably have Easter off, Scott is not getting as much breakfast cover as he used to have, by default he has a bit recently with the Escape Room and Lolothon, but unlike Grimmy Greg is not one for dropping out after a heavy night with Miss Ora or Geldof - very reminiscent of Zoe and Saras partying days, I think he has shown for every drive show thus far apart from holidays 

Greg is very much like Moyles in that way where he wouldn't miss a show unless there was a Holiday or a crises (remember when him and his GF spit Sara stood in for a few days) 

Question on that front - did Scott ever cover for Moyles working with Aled, Dave and Dom ?

    • 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. 
    • I’m pleased for Mylo and Rosie, they were highly thought of in our local area and definitely worthy of that slot 
    • I’m thinking the same redding and Leeds etc 
    • -Considering how little Jamie has appeared since Vick went off on maternity, it probably would've been more sensible to have Sam & Danni taking over from that point and have him return with Katie. - Mylo and Rosie are apparently very good and one of the more popular local presenters who lost their slot when Hits went fully national. I gather they are very popular in Yorkshire. I can see them definitely see them popping up again beyond this stint. -Life Hacks cover is yet another good opportunity for some new voices (I know Yinka has popped up in the past). I have enjoyed Pete Allison covering though. I'm assuming most of August's Friday to Sunday 1-4pm will be made up of festival coverage.
    • - Jamie Laing will take a break from Going Home from 28th July. Sam and Danni will cover. - Greg James will host his show until 11am from 21st July (Monday to Thursday only). - Mylo and Rosie, who previously hosted Hits Radio Breakfast in West Yorkshire, will host Friday EB in July. - Charley Marlowe of TikTok fame will host Friday EB in August. - Tskenya Frazer will host Life Hacks with Lauren Layfield in July, whilst Yinka Bikinni will host with Lauren in August. - Jamie Laing and Katie Thistleton will return to Going Home in September.
