Hmmm, the video to this is summit else! Shame it's the original with the video though. Shame that the only way Shakira could end of the playlist these days is with Beyonce!

Morning all

Morning!

Urgh, Beyonce. Well I don't see it either actually... imagine coming home every night and hearing her singing in the bathroom.

Carboot sales like ebay in a field? Surely that's auctions? I don't think you start low and bid for it with other people! The best bit is during the raining season when it's all muddy.

I've never been to one. Is there still such a thing as a "jumble sale" I wonder...

I bet there is. A bit of bric-a-brack. Which I'm told doesn't involve bricks. Was quite surprised by that. Have a raffle too. Radio 1 should have one, no one will be in today, they could sell off all the spare junk kicking around.

Cheap people.. :D Why anyone would willingly get up at an ungodly hour to walk around a field sifting through at an assortment of other people's crap is far, far beyond me.

Verry true. I think the only time i've been to a car boot sale was with my parents, when i was very young and i didn't have a choice of whether i had to go or not.

Wait a minute, you have IKEA. Up here in Norfolk, we have nothing like that. Carboot sales are the closest to it.

There a studio full of stuff according to the webcam... Where are they?

Next door. It's normal for the camera to be in the wrong place.

Ooh the FA Cup. I can't wait. Do you think Scott can do that thing where they release the balls a bit like the lottery? That'd be worth watching.

Afternoon all!

Afternooon! How's your day been? Having much for tea? Bloody nice weather we're having for 4pm.

Actually we don't. Cornwall isen't nearly as posh to deserve having an IKEA!

If you're too old for IKEA or don't have one, carboot sales are the next best thing for a bank holiday.

If I wanted to go to Ikea I'd have to travel to Bristol or Milton Keynes, so I haven't got any particularly near me.

Apparently you've never lived. May be we should all be going to Homebase or something instead. Might see Neil Morrisey.

Quite like this track now! Only several months after I should have!

John's In New Music We Trust. Also suggesting: the hot bands Status Quo and Queen.

How do i get the site contributor thing underneth my name because i've done it but it hasen't shown up.

You don't get one for donations, haven't decided what I'm doing with that yet. I don't want to confuse moderators with donators.

Are the Arctic Monkeys playing at Tracey Barlow's farewell due?

So seriously, when's the madness starting?! I just flicked over to Richard Allison on Radio 2, and I think he's stolen it ;)

Oh, I have been. My mum drove us up to Bristol, she really shouldn't have bothered, we may aswell have gone the whole hog and gone up to a Norfolk car boot sale.

    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
    • Just watched that advert and it made me realise quite how many 'big' specialist presenters there were back then
