Rave Up with Arielle Free

[Lee E]

Morning All

As we approach her last shows on earlies, I am still at a loss as to weather Adele has been promoted, demoted or sideways moved

Going from earlies to weekend breakfast, a more social slot than having a 4am alarm but not on air daily, but on air one hour less a week in total, totally different audience 

Then there is Arielle, she's definitely been promoted and wonder if this has been done to make her the dep for Dance Anthems, so she's not on air at weekends but can cover 

Matt & Mollie? backwards step from the weekend breakfast to afternoons, but still on a Friday demotion I would say as they have gone from breakfast on a Friday/Saturday to afternoons

I think it's a win-win situation for all of them. By going back to afternoons, Matt and Mollie can keep 3 shows a week. Adele should be tired of doing earlies all those years and by going to weekend mornings she can live like a normal person once again and do more cover work on weekdays. This move lets to try new talent on early breakfast, which is less listened to than weekend breakfast.

I think all those changes were made because of Greg James getting back to Friday. It was really strange that there were two breakfast shows for the same weekday audience. I think these changes bring more consistency to the whole schedule.
