Vick & Katie are in for Jordan from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd May.

He just said on air that he is taking week commencing 17 May off so he can go home and see his family as soon as the restrictions on overnight stays are lifted.

Maybe they could’ve given Vick and Katie the breakfast show on 17th (M&M are hosting that), with Matt and Mollie doing Scott’s show, with Vick and Katie doing Jordan’s show on Friday and Saturday, with maybe RMC on Sunday.

Yes does seem odd will they double shift on a Sunday but think they’d be good on at afternoons for that time and good with the listeners think they rather keep more consistency with breakfast cover much as possible same team covering breakfast

That’s fair and will be well deserved break

Several elements suprise me here

A. why not use Jordan in the week? unless he is going home?

B. Why double shift them on Sunday, when someone like Arielle, or any of the weekday DJs could cover Jordans slot, before he went to drivetime, in fact after he did it wasn't unknown for Greg to cover a weekend shift, or Scott for that matter (although in this case Scott is off)

Greg used to regularly cover the chart on a Sunday and Scott did too, and cover things like dance anthems and all

Chris Moyles used to cover weekend shifts sometimes, when they were at last resort, it seems these days the weekday lot only stray to weekend shows when its something like Big Weekend

Jordan must be unavailable. Going home on the 17th when restrictions allow seems only fair when he says it’s been since last Summer since he saw family.

The only schedule hasn’t been uploaded for the Sunday yet? Do we know if they are double shifting. I agree RMC or Arielle covering Sunday morning would be better.

Or even Greg - I bet he would if given the call

Chris Stark? give him a chance to do it solo

I don’t think Chris can drive the desk so it would be hard for him. Don’t forget, the schedules aren’t out for Sunday 23rd yet so it’s possible that Vick and Katie are in fact not on Sunday 23rd - we’ll have to wait for that.

I think Chris does know how to do bits as think he may have done bits when Scott’s struggling to get in at suction at times did some of the sound effects but isn’t probably contacted for cover presenting and is probably down as a co host not a solo host in ways like there are ones on commercial radio who contribute maybe done the odd pre recorded show but all within the team format. Think they more of a duo

Would but you don’t see breakfast presenters going out of their schedules really not unless they have a weekend show on commercial. There have been times when Katie or Cel double shifted before but possible that Jess Izsatt Arielle could most likely only time heard Greg covered on weekends was the chart before he started his tenure on the chart but think did on few occasions due to the fact how big her show is and exceptions of festivals or teen awards think times when Jordan takes time off feel Mollie could do mornings of weekends and Matt could do afternoons solo save on the cash as they were both going to be in that day and don’t have to really pay more

Arielle covered for Jordan a couple of months ago so she could have easily done it. Jess probably wouldn't as she does her show on BBC London the night before. Splitting up Matt and Mollie would be a strange move in my opinion.

I'd be shocked if it wasn't Arielle on the Sunday.

Vick Hope and Katie Thistleton in for Jordan North from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd.

Dean McCullough sits in for Matt Edmondson. from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd. Mollie King presenting as usual.
 

Sam MacGregor and Danni Diston in for Vick and Katie on Life Hacks and The Official Chart: First Look on Sunday 23rd.

Vick Hope in for Annie Mac on 25th May.

Lots of interesting changes there - nice to see Dean McCullough covering already, it will be nice to see what he sounds like bouncing off another presenter. 
 

Also good to see Sam and Danni off the Christmas line up being used again and Vick in for Annie is an unexpected choice but one that I can definitely see working!

Sam MacGregor and Danni Diston are doing a stint for early breakfast later this year i think,
They covered at Chrtimass, and were fairly good, so it sort of make sense to bring them back.

 

 

On Vic, unexpected. But she host a music podcast on sounds, so probably got the background and passion for music to do the show. will be interring to see  how she gets on

Katie is in for Arielle this Wednesday.

Is that the first time Arielle has been off this year (excluding bank holidays)? Grimmy hasn't had any weeks off air since Christmas either (apart from the one day covered by Jack Saunders). Hopefully we get a good couple of weeks back to back of Jordan covering soon.

    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
