Not sure if true or not. But radio 1 imo dose need some new presenters. 

But if was to make the move maybe a cohost  with grimmy.  I think Greg is safe on his own for a time to come. 

Possible into early  breakfast or into Clara show.  Both of which seem to have been there a long time. Maybe Adele into Clara slot and  Vick into early breakfast.

My money would be on Maya Jama, for a co host job.

They're about the same age same level of fame, likely mates?

That's an interesting rumor, I could totally see it. After three years on a breakfast show without getting her name on the door, I wouldn't blame her. As for where she'd fit in, I'm not sure - it could be anywhere although Clara will have been on miss for five years in May. I'm not sure Radio 1's problem is necessarily that it doesn't have enough new presenters though - it has lots of presenters, it just doesn't quite know what to do with all of them. Maybe it'll be like Arielle or Charlie Sloth where a show is created especially for her.

Either way, we won't find out for a while - she'll be on gardening leave for the foreseeable, until her Global contract runs out.

EDIT: Rumour fans, this seems to confirm half of what I speculated earlier (sorry it's the Daily Fail, but the link is to MSN). Also an interesting little titbit about a quip Greg made at the ARIAs, and a brutal putdown of "random DJ Rob Howard". https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/newslondon/ex-capital-fm-host-hope-locked-in-feud-with-station/ar-BB10Po9h?ocid=msedgntp

That daily mail article was awful. Half of it was a swipe at Moyles!

But yes, Think it's time R1 ditched a few dj's. Maybe Matt and Mollie? That show sounds like Capital. Reckon Matt will leave. He's been there over 10 years!! Reckon Greg and Grimmy are safe. They are on at primetime so they'll be fine. If I was to guess 3 DJ'S to leave. I'd say Matt, Annie and Huw.

I reckon they should put Scott back on drivetime

Would be good, but he's transitioning to Radio 2 now.

yeah - tonight is an example covering for Tony 

I wonder what is pre recorded the last half hour or so of Party Anthems or the first link on R2

Or is he doing the R2 show from R1 

Or is he doing it all from R2 today, be interesting if he has a chat with Sara Cox

    • Roman Kemp 😜 I think Will was at radio 1 at one point wasn't he? 
    • Hats off to Chris for leaving a challenge for Greg.  To plan that out was great detailing and proves what a talented guy he is.  The post he posted on Instagram also links into it which is great to.  There is loyalty to Greg there so I don't think he's joining Capital.  Persephonica was looking for an 'experienced entertainment producer' a few months ago. I wonder if this is where Chris might be heading? 
    • Jordan North… Seriously though, out of the commercial stations I only really listen to Capital but I do think Will Manning is very strong (and could quite easily slot into R1). I also think Jimmy Hill is a very good commercial DJ (but probably wouldn’t be as good on R1).
    • First link made me blush 
    • Who do you think is the best commercial presenter? This is your view, doesn't have to be who has the most ratings 
    • Starting off strong. 
    • I remember Chase and Status being added to the line-up for Coventry after a drop out. At the time it seemed a bit random, but they seem massive again now!
    • That is a bit strange, yes. Fair point. Oh yes, I'd say both are equal. It's just they'll have been on Instagram for some time, whereas TikTok will have been a new addition in recent years, so something probably has to give. Us anoraks like to see Twitter as important, but I find myself putting much more time into those other platforms. Incidentally when I applied for a social job there probably four years back (wasn't successful!) I did say I thought the audience wanted more insight from the station rather than just content around the stars. I think they've moved a lot more in that direction, especially with the visualisation in the studio. You see more of Greg James than Harry Styles. I don't envy the PR machine at Radio 1 going straight from Mollie King's challenge to Big Weekend announcements without a break!
    • Since they starting the big weekend right at the end of Matt & Mollie’s show I expect they get to do the duties of opening up the festival.
    • Matt and Mollie and Sam and Danni have DJ sets on Friday of Big Weekend, still makes me think they are really keen to push both pairings in a hole left by Jordan.
    • Broadcast wise it’s going to be interesting to see how they handle the performances starting at the same time as the chart show.
    • Yes sort of, although it’s still weird that they tweeted when Mollie was halfway completed but did not do so when she crossed the finish line.
    • it would make sense to ensure both instagram and TikTok are treated as equals and kept in tandem as reels and downloads of instagram are growing when TikTok I think I’ve heard is stagnating.    I mean it makes sense to do less with Twitter or X as it has change. There has been a lot of change in how its run and operate with focus on making it a platform people pay for and its been volatile for advertising with lots of loss in paid promotions on the platform and the business worth has been waining and any communications and marketing for any business and organisations are seeing that
    • I feel like all ATB songs started with some sort of airport in their video
