The overnight stuff with the podcasters is less good than with the other DJs imo. The Unexpected Fluids guys were quite funny but the Drag Queens Den bit has felt a bit flat. And now they're just on their own - this bit could really do with some extra guests (DJs ideally).

I was asleep then so missed that but sounds funny

So they're staying on until 4! I suspect this was the plan all along.

Could they go part four?  They’ve been quite non specific about for how long they’re extending.  Also totally agree with you about music to talk ratio, it’s sounding great.

That would be great! Could you imagine them going for another day?? Maybe try and beat Moyles's  record! And also talking every one or two records is great unlike Maya Jama who'd happily play a full album and say nothing

In fairness her format is deliberately music based, but it sounds awful because she’s an awful radio presenter.  If Scott did that format it’d sound slick and funny.  Funny how not even on social media has Maya acnowlaged the Lolathon, I’m still conceived she doesn’t know it’s happening haha.

Imagine if this was actually a deliberate ploy the whole time to go after the Moyles record, and they’ll just keep going. Seriously doubt it but it’d be incredible, and Scott won’t be on Radio 1 forever, but that would be a fitting legacy.

True

If scott was to go to heart. This would be a great send off!!

I hope he didn’t! He better not come on air tomorrow and say right that’s it bye! 

probably not, but that could have been part of his swan song

As his last song he should play Dua Lipa's track from the playlist- Swan Song. Lol how ironic would that be

if he announces he's leaving while it's on the playlist I bet he'll play that after announcing

Can someone find that awesome bed? 

I was just thinking it sounds like what Scott would have as Breakfast imaging if he did Breakfast permanently (obviously won't happen at this point).

He's too old:( Maybe Chris will get the gig as a sidekick one day!

Even if it's not. He should 100 percent play that as a sendoff

 

maybe not as his last song, something with a bit more gravitas for his last song.  But on the last show I really hope it makes an appearance.

Chris is 30 now, too late for that now.  I bet the next host will be someone like Cel Spellman or even someone random like Roman Kemp.  Not someone we know well now.

Cel??? On Breakfast. Nope can't see that happening!

not a bad shout.  when Scott leaves, the likes of Nick, Clara and Greg (in that order) can't be far behind.  They are all the "older" DJs now, daytimes need a rethink in the next year or so.  Greg feels more and more like a transitional host for a year or so on Breakfast, he's way too bland and serious sounding these days, as a teenager I can tell you everyone my own age would rather listen to Capital than Greg, same can't be said for Dev and Alice or Scott.

Don't rule it out.  He's in his 20s, he's pretty "cool" if you think about it, and he has big appeal with the demographic.  He'd obviously need to improve a lot more.  If not then it's gonna be someone like Roman Kemp, or someone else we don't know about.

Could see Matt and Mollie move to daytime. Maybe drivetime. I could see that by the end of this year

    • Richie Anderson in for Rylan tomorrow.
    • Mylo and Rosie said at the end of their show today that they would also be on Early Breakfast on Thursday 24th July (even though the schedule still says Dean)
    • James is in for Dean from Monday 11th to Thursday 14th August. Dean is in for Greg from Monday 11th to Friday 15th August. Jaguar is in for Sarah on Friday 15th August.
    • 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
