BBCR1_James 6 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee E 54 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 I know with Scott's show it shows Matt's picture but on the car display it says "Matt is in for Scott to entertain the nation" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capes 14 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I think it should be Adele Roberts Jordan North Sits in That makes much more sense and keeps it similar to what you would expect to be hearing BBCR1_James 1 Quote Capes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan18F1 31 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alrite_treacle 3 Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 That's a dubiously photoshopped photo of Jordan North with Mollie, there! The schedule certainly is a mess at the moment - I would hope they're all in their own shows once Greg starts breakfast!!

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.

THIS IS THE BBC 13 Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 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.

Ant L 51 Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OohErr 231 Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 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.

Graeme 8 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
