GeekTalk51 4 Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 The guys did a round of Real Or No Real (whoooooo) on the show this week as part of the Don’t Look It Up quiz, do we reckon they should bring the feature back full time, maybe in place of the quiz? (It’s sounding a bit tired now and I miss RONR). Nxthxn_Dyer 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nxthxn_Dyer 3 Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 I think they should maybe alternate with the quiz and RONR as both are great features in my opinion. Do you know when they played Real this week? Would like to listen back GeekTalk51 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nxthxn_Dyer 3 Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Having listened to the RONR round on the quiz from Tuesday I think they should definitely bring it back properly with the old music etc. It feels slightly wrong (and somewhat rushed) being part of the quiz.

Electric Boogaloo 1 Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 I don’t think the quiz is sounding tired tbh, I was just thinking the other day how good it’s been having a proper feature at the end of the show again, it was weird when RoNR stopped and the show just kind of, ended. Would still be glad if it made a reappearance Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would still be glad if it made a reappearance I would like to see "Where ere they" come back as well, it seems the show only has three slots for features, 140, 240 and 310, the first half hour is always and always has been too music heavy for my liking, also I don't see why they have to have a newsbeat at 130, when there is the long one at 1245?

There's always been a 13:30 bulliten. The main newsbeat programme has more in depth reports, some of which are special programmes. The bulliten updates the headlines. It makes up part of their required hours of news. They've already cut back over the years with no 04:30, 05:30 and 17:00 bullitens on weekdays, 16:30 and 17:30 on Saturdays, and looks like the 21:00 (formerly 22:00) is not coming back anytime soon.

NathanS 4 Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 I wouldn't mind RONR popping up from time to time. Would be another way to get some of the new DJ's voices on daytime Radio 1 (as contributors to the feature). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IsaacM 5 Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 I remember Scott bringing back Real or No Real on Radio 2 when he covered for Steve Wright a while back - it was good to hear it again, but it didn't feel the same with the original format and music. I'd love it to be brought back regularly on Radio 1 with the original format and theme music. Having said that, Don't Look It Up is a really strong feature and it's excellent at the time it's on (towards the end of the show) so it's hard deciding whether to replace Don't Look It Up for Real or No Real. Perhaps an occassional outing of RoNR will have to do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
