Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

[Lee E]

I Know I have asked this before, but never had a solid answer, and some newer members may know, so why is it on a Friday and the weekend the studios seem to swap for example on a regular weekday Adele, Clara, Grimmy and RMC are in 82D and Greg, Scott, Annie and Jack come from 82A but at weekends it seems to change, Arielle 82A, M&M 82D, Jordan 82A, Dev 82D, Scott 82 (E/F??) Annie 82A and Danny 82D 

Anyone have any idea why this happens, also why doen't Scott just use 82A on a Friday or is that because Annie insists on 82A every time

I'm not sure I know the reason exactly, but I do know that there have been several changes to the studio allocations recently (since the new schedule started this month).

So on weekdays Adele and Clara's shows now come from 82F.

Weekends Arielle and Jordan also now come from 82F.  The chart comes from 82E and Danny is in 82B.

Interestingly, the 1Xtra breakfast show has been in 82D recently - it always used to be 82F.

It seems that any shows with a co-presenter must come from 82A or 82D as these studios are larger, making social distancing possible.

I wonder if that's because 1xtra breakfast will be a co-hosted slot going forward?
