Capital Summertime Ball 2024

What did you think of it? Good to have them back. Despite consistant good banter, it's a shame the show sounds very lazy still. No new features apart from the return of an old one, the only new jingles they have are expensive and not even funny, and the format feels old. Perhaps I'm just used to Scott's changing ideas. It's a shame, because I thought Chris was the best thing on radio, but there needed to be some new ideas this year - which there hasn't been. Whilst new listeners are tuning in, I feel old listeners have been abandoned.

However, I had to laugh at his mention of "Comedy Neil" - Nihal. "Isn't it unfortunate if you're an unfunny person and you sound like Russell Brand".

[John]

Its much of the same from them. Not bad because I already like how they are, and i've not heard much of the new jingles yet

[Lucinda]

Does sound pretty similar. They just said they were going to talk about Big Brother, so I switched off. It might have been better if they'd actually managed to get Will Smith on the show, they seem to be just trying to fill time today. I'll give it more time before I decide on it, but at the moment, it doesn't sound that new.

I like the facct the Carpark Catchphrase is back

[MaryMary]

Thank god they're back. At last, some wit.

[DC]

i haven't listened to radio 1 for ages. who was on for them last week?

[Jono]

"Comedy Neil"

Nihal off of Bobby Friction and Nihal

[Mike]

who was awful.

listening again now, i think its just nice o have em back, i'd rather have them sounding lazy than the tit who was on last week

[DC]

neils ok, he aint a bad lad. but it shows how desperate radio 1 get sometimes. neil belongs to a specialist show, they may as well of thrown judge jules on.

[Jono]

They should have given Dave Pearce the job.

Carpark Catchphrase has lots it charm. They've done what they did with Beep Beep Busters and cut out a lot of banter with Roy.

The whole fun of these games are the chat with the "host" - The Hoff, Brucie, Roy.

I think it should improve as they get back into it hopefully. Nice to see the callers were thick as ever

I heard a bit of Chris' show today, I wonder if Scott is going to copy him and bring in a CD full of his childhood radio presenting

[youcantstealmyradio]

Am I the only one who doesnt like Chris Moyles? I dont know... Ive just never really gotten into his show

Me & my cousin have fights over who's better... Mills or Moyles
