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

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
