Matt and Mollie in for Greg on 20th December.

Katie in for Matt and Mollie on 24th December. No Best New Pop either.

the Christmas presenters will be doing Radio 1 Anthems this year by the looks of things.

[Darren m]

I would have thought Greg would have had the week before Xmas off 

 

[Lily Georgia]

Matt & Mollie are in for Greg on Monday 6th December.

[Lily Georgia]

Sian Eleri is in for Clara on Thursday 9th December.

Presumably Monday is when the Christmas and New Year Top Of The Pops specials are being filmed as Jordan is off as well as Clara, and has been announced as the replacement for Fearne Cotton.

[Lily Georgia]

Sam & Danni are in for Arielle on Tuesday 21st December.

[R1Fan1]

No best new pop on 7th January. Sam and Danni are doing Early Breakfast (in for Arielle the whole week), so I wonder if Arielle is going to do Fridays permanently with Best New Pop dropped.

Possible but I doubt it.  Best New Pop isn't on probably simply because Mollie isn't around to record it that week - she won't have been on air since 20th Dec so presumably is unavailable over that whole period.

When mollie wasn’t there a couple of weeks ago Akylah just sat in for her, so it is possible.

There are very few new Pop releases over Christmas and the first week of January so that could be an explanation.

I’d like to see Sam and Danni get Fridays early breakfast permanently myself. They’ve done quite a lot of covering now and I can’t see where else they would fit in anytime soon. As well as that, they may start to lose opportunities to the new hosts this Christmas which I hope they don’t!

I do feel like Katie will get a move fairly soon (whether that be Adele leaving or her joining up with Dean, or maybe even her taking over the chart), and then Sam and Danni taking over Life Hacks.

I think she could be a good contender for the Official chart if Scott went to R2 - but if Scott replaced Ken on R2 then he could still in effect keep the chart as well

I can also see them giving the Chart to Jordan when Scott leaves make him 5 days a week like Greg

Even if Katie does leave there would still be Vick Hope who could fly solo? I think Vick and Katie would probably both leave Life Hacks at the same time so if Katie does get a promotion like Vick, she'll do it in addition to Life Hacks until Vick is happy to leave Life Hacks as well.

Jack is in for Clara on Monday 13th December.  Sian is in for Jack.

[Lily Georgia]

[Darren m]

I’m surprised Matt is on so much as his wife is due any day now 

 

[BBCAaron]

I mean @Darren m there are quite a lot of partners of pregnant people who do work near to any moment of the pregnancy of their partner maybeready to take time off work at any moment remember it was pretty much at one point doing extra factor his first child was born and was still work heavy quite a bit. I mean Boris was doing Prime Ministers question then out pops child number x

[Darren m]

And the same again this Saturday.

[Lily Georgia]

Sam & Danni in for Arielle again tomorrow.

[Dan18F1]

Looking at their Twitter’s it looks like Tiffany has got Covid and Arielle is ill, hopefully they’re both better soon as well as Jack of course. Would also explain why Arielle wasn’t there on Monday morning!
