Bringing this back up...

Dick and Dom WILL present a Radio 1 show. They'll be presenting Friday's Early Breakfast starting Friday 2nd February at 4am.

It's initially for February but they're hoping that they'll be able to guarantee themselves a regular slot on the station.

Well that will most certainly get me up on a Friday!

I haven't been getting up on Fridays until 7 compared to getting up at 5.30/6am when JK and Joel are on

I find them quite entertaining. The Bunaglow show had quite a cult following like Spongebob Square Pants, so I'll be see interested to see how well they go down on radio. They were entertaining back in May when they did the Mills show.

Listening to it on listen again now, i think they are coping quite well, seem to have got the hang of it.

i think Dom's nervousness is down to that Dick was pushing the buttons. so he may feel a bit lost cos dick has done radio before. like when you go to your parents work when your a lil kid

>> I'm on here every now and again... <<

He thinks real Radio 1 listeners aren't Big Brother viewers, don't care about seeing the Kaiser Chiefs live, going to pop concerts, or care about entertainment news. The last might be true, but two five minute reports a day hardly kills any one. I see no point living in the past. Methinks I'll fall on death ears here though...

yeah push me out that little bit more. afterall i have done nothing here.

i'll give you more than that. not many people will understand becuase most on here have only started listening to radio 1 in the last 2 years at the most. but i think not any specific show but radio 1 as a whole seemed to be more creative and less repetative. sure they talked about bands of the time and so on back then. but not as often as they do today, take chris moyles for example. for those of you who dont know he did early breakfast like jk and joel do today in the late 1990's before he went onto afternoons. and i have one or two shows from then on mp3. those compared to most of his breakfast shows today are more creative and more lets say interesting. even as soon 2 to 3 years ago, you had the fire alarm incident and when they went to euro 2004 to name a few. now you cant seem to find that around.

on the grid.

I take all those points - don't necessarily agree with all of them, but they are pretty much opinion based, so that doesn't matter. I still don't understand what you meant by "media obsessed". It IS the media, isn't it? Or a significant part of it.....?

at least you see it's an opinion and dont try to break my neck just becuase i have my own views.

anyway in the past they didn't circulate around the same things as much as they do today. it's somthing which i may be able to see more becuase i have been listening to radio 1 for so long and i have the recordings to look back on at my disposal. it's somthing you have to hear to be honest. when the old one big weekend events and such used to come along they did promote them a lot (not as much as they do today), the only thing i used to notice is when mark and lard used to promote them they used to rustle papers around and such to make them sound scripted. thats the only difference really in that sense, there did used to be some crap music around too like dj pied pipers 'do you really like it' which i never look back on fondly.

as for the celeb stuf and big brother. well when big brother came around 6 or 7 years ago i remember moyles taking a liking to it, fair enough he mentioned it said what he thought, discussed it and left it at that. but around 2003 i remember switching his afternoon show off becuase he must of spent a big amount of time talking about it. and it kind of went on from there and carried on to the breakfast show. the entertainment bullitens like at 6.30 aren't that bad becuase they aren't dragged out, and the one in jo's show. but in a lot of ways for me it's like having a track on repeat sometimes, you get fed up with it.

on the grid.

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.

      Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?

      I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.

      Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.

      I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.

      With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot.
