Whenever there is loads of cover on R1 I always find it proper confusing how they title the shows...

Do you think the show should remain the same with "sits in" in the subtitle or do you think the cover DJs show title should be used:

E.G: When Jordan covers Adele, should it be...

 

Adele Roberts

Jordan North Sits in

OR

Jordan North

Jordan Sits in for Adele

 

I always thought the first one made more sense if Jordan is doing Adele's features such as new music friday or best new pop because then it means that all of this falls into the same section on iPlayer in catch up. I don't know, R1 just seem to be all over the place with how they are titling stuff at the moment anyway.

I agree, it’s especially annoying when a Will Best situation happens, when he first started covering Adele, the show was labelled Adele Roberts - Will Best sits in 

But then on the most recent cover he did, he had his own name, and not Adele Roberts, at least show some consistency Radio 1, But then that’s typical of R1 at the moment, but that’s for another thread

Yes I agree. I think the consistency has been horrendous recently. 

 

Especially regarding cover DJs, I feel the BBC have allowed to many key people at R1 to have time off at once. It means we are getting random shows all the time.

Least this was consistent but I still think it has been done wrong. 

It should be.....

 

Dev & Alice

Arielle and Will sit in.

 

Radio 1's Greatest Hits

with Cel Spellman

 

Jordan North

Cel sits in for Jordan

 

Matt & Mollie

Jordan Sits in for Matt & Mollie. 

 

 

I just then thing when they are doing show features like "Get Your Clips Out" or "Best New Pop" the iPlayer version goes into the right show category so people can find it.

Lots of slight name changes to the shows:

The Radio 1 Takeover

Radio 1's Future Sounds with Annie Mac

Radio 1's Hype Chart with Phil Taggart

Annie Nightingale Presents...

Radio 1's Soundsystem with Toddla T

Annie Mac on Friday

 

Also Radio 1 and 1Xtra's Stories appears to be coming back onto the air in place of 'The Radio 1 Takeover' in a couple of weeks.

Annie’s Friday show is now ‘Radio 1’s Dance Party with Annie Mac’. 

I guess this all to make the shows stand out on the BBC Sounds app which has programmes and podcasts from across the BBC.

Surprised Radio 1 Breakfast didn’t get the same treatment - Radio 1’s Breakfast Show maybe.

Yes I thought breakfast was going to be named in that way. 

Also surprises me they haven't added "Weekend Breakfast" back to "Dev & Alice" yet now they have finished drive time. 

Ultimately I think they are trying to create "Shows" rather then just the presenter/personality (as this is what happens on commercial - Capital is the same all the time just with different presenters). They want Radio 1 to have "shows" that people specifically choose to listen too.

It's not entirely the same thing but it really annoys me how the breakfast show starts on the iPlayer at 6:33 and not 6:30. It means the beginning is cut off if the news runs short, and whenever you skip forward or back you have to do the +/-3mins calculation every time.

So dev and Alice picture has never been replaced in the end - surely a bit odd?

 

also why don’t they like using Phil Taggart’s picture? Neither of his shows use him as the show image?

      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!

      R1 to R2 transfers

      By Lee E · Posted

      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

      Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

      By Lee E · Posted

      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.
