Grimmy is getting loads of cover at the moment! It's great having him back on the radio

I'm sorry to be immature but this gave me Innuendo Bingo flashbacks - he was in Rihanna last night.... ?

Same. I miss all the little show traditions he did on Radio 1. Perfect Christmas Single, Magnus Carlson Wrap Myself In Paper, (which he still plays on R2) Scott & Chris' presents to each other, Wh

Sometimes Trevor’s show is pre recorded maybe this will be the case for afternoons 

 

That certainly won't be the case. If he's away, someone else will cover.

Angelica Bell is sitting in on the late show next week ahead of Spoony launching The Good Groove in that slot.

Interesting choice & someone going Bauer to BBC rather than the other way round! 
She’s been on Magic and covered Fleur East’s Maternity on Hits.

Here's an interesting one... Sara Cox is in for Scott covering breakfast on Monday 10th March. She was previously the main stand in for Chris Evans on the breakfast show prior to her taking over drivetime.

In turn, OJ Borg is in for Sara on drive.. and Phil Williams is on overnight for OJ.

I think this is a great move & she’ll suit the style of show Scott is doing. Something I was a little concerned about with the suggestion Mark Goodier could provide cover. 

I do wonder if Sara feels a bit put out by missing out on breakfast permanently? Maybe this is a sweetener by getting her back on cover duties.

Bit of a random one on Tuesday 25th and Wednesday 26th January

Ellie Taylor (I assume the comedian and tv presenter) in for Sara Cox. Presenting debut on R2. Has she ever done any radio elsewhere before?

I could understand if it was one of the weekend shows, they regularly have tv personalities sitting in but drivetime seems a bit of an odd choice. Even if OJ Borg was unavailable (he's currently listed on his usual slot on those days), surely there are plenty of existing Radio 2 presenters they could call upon?

Jason Mohammad in for Owain this week

Shaun Keaveny in for Liza Tarburck on Saturday 15th and Rob Beckett on Sunday 16th March.

Ellie Taylor is no longer listed as covering Sara Cox's show on 25th/26th March. It has reverted to Sara on the schedule, although OJ Borg mentioned when sitting in for her yesterday that he's covering drivetime again in a few weeks.

      Radio 1 Summer Schedule

      By coffeeandgin · Posted

      There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1.

      I’m pleased for Mylo and Rosie, they were highly thought of in our local area and definitely worthy of that slot

      -Considering how little Jamie has appeared since Vick went off on maternity, it probably would've been more sensible to have Sam & Danni taking over from that point and have him return with Katie. - Mylo and Rosie are apparently very good and one of the more popular local presenters who lost their slot when Hits went fully national. I gather they are very popular in Yorkshire. I can see them definitely see them popping up again beyond this stint. -Life Hacks cover is yet another good opportunity for some new voices (I know Yinka has popped up in the past). I have enjoyed Pete Allison covering though. I'm assuming most of August's Friday to Sunday 1-4pm will be made up of festival coverage.

      - Jamie Laing will take a break from Going Home from 28th July. Sam and Danni will cover. - Greg James will host his show until 11am from 21st July (Monday to Thursday only). - Mylo and Rosie, who previously hosted Hits Radio Breakfast in West Yorkshire, will host Friday EB in July. - Charley Marlowe of TikTok fame will host Friday EB in August. - Tskenya Frazer will host Life Hacks with Lauren Layfield in July, whilst Yinka Bikinni will host with Lauren in August. - Jamie Laing and Katie Thistleton will return to Going Home in September.
