Come along to chat about JK and Joel's Bank Holiday Monday show if you like, Scott's show is back from 4pm on Tuesday. This thread may be moderated - try to avoid text chat here, and double posts may be merged into one.

Because they're playing great music for most of it? ;)

Won't tempt you any more to listen Helen, I know, but there's details of Radio 1's Big Weekend and VIP tickets. Someone might listen in for that!

Bank holidays, Sundays, and early mornings, they're there. Bless them.

Hmmm, like they didn't purposely get the caller to pick Guns 'n' Roses - Paradise City right now so that they could have a break! Haha.

Scott's had a good mention though, re his destructive dinner party antics. :)

He sounds like me when he's had too many. Standing on laptops pouring drink on phones? He'll just need to 'feed' the plants some ketchup, and spill all his drink down his jeans.

I know we're not really commenting on the music much, but I love this Unkle Jam track! It's really growing on me. I was hoping 'Mista Jam' was Unkle Jam, playing at the Big Weekend. Obviously not.

Hmm, I'd really like to get my hands on JK and Joel's R1 pages. They're so bare.

Oh and the guy who thinks the UM myspace is Scott's myspace has said Scott's myspace looks great. Thanks...

JK and Joel are wrong about bank holiday being the day the folks argue. They've been quite loving this time round, they seem to be watching You've Been Framed at the moment.

Why're they talking about telly shows? Moyles does that too. I don't see why they think we're interested...

I don't find it interesting because I never watch TV shows that make box sets. They're way too expensive, and I get bored of stuff like 24 and Lost.

Radio 1's Big Weekend - Isn't there posters around the studio with it all on? They're rubbish, I could name most of them!

Yeah I'd rather they talked about music on TV if they want to talk about TV at all. Or the occasional oddball show that's funny in the wrong way maybe.

Don't mind so much when Moyles does it - his show is one on its own, he only plays about 3 records an hour and you know when you tune in it's gonna be mostly chat.

They must be on the website surely so every chance to read the list off there - a thin pretence to remind us of the names of the acts .

UM is a nice place

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • 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.
