So this morning Laura admitted to not knowing who Heather Mills was. Bexy just revealed she didn't know who Kofi Annan was. Which famous person didn't you know anything about or knew existed?

I was suprised at the amount of people my age who don't know who the Chancellor of the Exchequer is. I have a fair idea of who most people are, but up until recently I thought Sinn Fein was an actual person.

Oh and I never knew who John Simm was until a few weeks ago. I've seen him in things but never put the name and face together.

Haha! Oh god, that's hilarious! Seriously, if some of the people that lived near me read that, they'd probably collapse laughing. Sorry, I shouldn't laugh. I had no idea who John Major was until a few weeks ago!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. I was put right at the age of about 11 though by my dad, who knows everything.

There's loads of TV personalities I've never heard of. I'd never heard of (Dr?) Gillian McKeith before she was on X-Factor with Moyles and the chances are I won't have heard of most of the people on any celebrity TV show you care to name. I also hadn't heard of Barry Scott of the Cillit Bang adverts until last year. A lot of the time I just pretend to know who these people are while looking them up in Wikipedia. I blame my parents, for not bringing me up with TV properly. I've only ever watched about 1 TV programme with my parents.

When it comes to politics though, I am pretty knowledgable because my family are into that kind of thing and I read the papers.

I dont know who the Chancellor of the Exchequor is. And i also though Sinn Fein was a real person.

In fact, pretty much anyone remotely famous through politics, i dont know who they are. Excluding big ears and his right hand man.

Aside from celebrities, what about around the work place? Especially at school. I often wonder what half the people around there do. I think they make up job titles for people at school like some bloke sorting 'community relations'

Not to be confused with John Prescott, who does basically nothing except play croquet and have affairs. He's the huge fat one.

This is like a proper political education lesson! I know basically nothing about TV presenters and celebrities of entertainment though so I might need them explained to me.

In the Hall I live in at University (can't say which one) we had, until February, a Warden. I have no idea what the purpose of the Warden was, except to get grumpy if people walk on the grass or get dropped off on the wrong side of the Hall in a taxi. Anyway, the Warden has been removed on kiddy porn charges (it's not official, but we have heard from reliable sources). Now it is obvious just how little purpose he has. There's already a Hall Manager, and annoying woman who runs the place on behalf of the corporate profit-making side of the University, and a Senior Tutor who hands out fines to people like my neighbour. So the Warden has no purpose, that I can see, and we're much better without one. I only saw him about twice anyway, and can't actually think of what he looks like.

Until Big Brother I hadn't heard of Donny Tourette. Then again, I doubt many other people had either...

I had and so had a lot of people on the Camden music circuit. Towers have a very loyal band of followers, almost cultish. They have a record deal and had a TV show on Bravo, sort of rockumentary. I swear Jono bad mouths Donny just to annoy me...

I'd never heard of highly influential blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughn until this year, I'm embarrassed to admit. Also could not name any captains of England at any sports or Prime Ministers or Presidents of non-European countries (except the tragedy that is Bush that is). :oops:

Not the euphemism sort of coffee??? As in - "would you like to come in for....coffee?"

And what sort of best friend is she if she didn't introduce you to him, I'd like to know? Was it a meeting through her work or something?

LOL It was as in "There's a coffee shop down the road, wanna go for a drink"

My friend is male and they met on a buddhist retreat last year.

My friend said that he is so down to earth and just like a regular guy. I am sure they swapped numbers but my friend denies it and any time I have tried to get hold of his phone to look he is so on to me ;) (He probably has him under an Alias anyway)

      Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter.

      Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?

      Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.

      Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!

      R1 to R2 transfers

      I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days

      Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.

      With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.

      Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now

      Radio 1 Anthems Scheduling

      By Lee E · Posted

      Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday.

      As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
