I disagree, I think Jordan is really natural. Just how one wants a radio presenter to be today. Jordan tells a great story, reminds me of Nick Grimshaw and Sara Cox. I find Mollie the stiff one, if anyone is stiff. The thing is it takes time for relationships to blossom and one week on breakfast isn’t enough. I almost think if it’s not broken, don’t fix it. Go back to Matt and Mollie and Vick and Jordan.

We can agree to disagree, I love mollie and matt. I think they should have been the natural successors to Scott. When they do breakfast it’s the best because they bring a different dynamic, it’s innuendos, it’s trivia, it’s interactive and more relatable. Maybe a north south divide as to what constitutes entertainment. 
 

I think Jordan will be the next breakfast host with Mollie. Vick won’t want to do it and nor will Katie move down.

Many of the presenters are perfectly good on their own - Jordan a clear example.  Though Jordan's style lends itself to having somebody to bounce off.

Maybe they are going for the method that "Drive host is main breakfast dep/in waiting" again like when Scott was on drive he was main breakfast cover clearly Jordan is the next in line for Breakfast a

A couple of things. I don’t get the interest in Mollie King, I think she’s a good pop star but I haven’t rated her as a radio presenter. She’s not natural on air. However, pairing her up with Jordan m

Seems inevitable that once Greg goes, it will either be Jordan & Mollie on breakfast with Vick & Katie on drive or else Jordan & Katie on breakfast with Vick & Jamie on drive. Think the second option would make more sense. I really like Mollie but think a lot of that's down to how good her and Matt are together. Also, she's not exactly the future of the station and it seems a risk to put an unfamiliar duo on breakfast full time. The shows with Jordan this week have been solid but sound a bit forced. Jordan and Katie are so brilliant together and have a genuine friendship so they seem like the obvious choice but who knows.....

Whereas driving force should have been ensuring that there wasn't too marked a drop in quality!

Agreed. The target of a daytime show outside of London could have been met without the instant quality drop. It just doesn't seem to have improved that much over one year on unfortunately, whereas other shows and presenters have

I know some will disagree but the more I listen to Mollie and Jordan, I think Mollie is way more natural at presenting the breakfast show than Jordan is. I know all of you love Jordan so I’m waiting for the hate. 
 

I think him and Katie are a great combo, I think Katie and Vic are a great combo. He gets nervous around girls he fancies and that was so evident when he presented with Vic and was in love with her and I think Mollie intimidates him. 
 

Matt and Mollie should take over breakfast, Vic and Jamie/Emil do lunchtime. Jordan stays on drive with Katie. James takes Katie’s show and Vicky does the lunchtime weekend slot with either Nat or Emil. 
 

Greg has lost more listeners in the latest RAJAR report.

I did notice similar with Jordan saying Mollie ‘gives him the ick’ and then getting her to say ‘daddy’. Was a bit of playground flirting.

 Jordan & Mollie have been great this past week - one of the biggest pieces of praise you can give to both is that you wouldn’t know it’s been their first time on-air together for years. They played off each other brilliantly and don't take themselves too seriously but still sound excellent. Makes you wonder what they might be like with a few more shows together.

I started off the week thinking if Vick is dead set against doing Breakfast post-Greg (as seems to be the case) then Jordan & Katie was the obvious option.

That's still very much the case. However, I wouldn't complain if it ended up now being Jordan & Mollie - Katie could easily take Jordan’s spot on Going Home (any combo of Katie, Vick or Jordan just works) plus if Mollie is on Breakfast full-time it creates a proper slot for Maia Beth on Future Pop who is low-key fantastic and deserves a regular slot.

      https://youtu.be/A_Cycjg5_9A?si=NiLTFeiTNWBExFoR   As barmy as Sam Ryder has now gone, as shown in this video. I'd still rather it than that bland Olly Alexander record.

      Rylan and Scott

      By NathanS · Posted

      I like Scott, and I listen to Rylan's show every week... they do sound great together on Eurovision etc but.. as for a daily show together, I don't think it would work. Rylan would probably have to reign it in a bit which would lose his appeal, otherwise it may become too chaotic, in my opinion. That Saturday slot is perfect for Rylan, his rapport with Sally Traffic and Lottie is great. I suppose it comes down to cost as well and if he would want a daily show?   Radio 2 are clearly happy with Scott's show, and considering he's just won Best Entertainment Show at the ARIA's, I can't see them changing much.

      A win for Scott which is fantastic after the last few years he's been through!

      Do you want to work in radio?

      Am I outnumbered for not wanting to work in radio? It feels like there's a lot of geeks that want a job in the industry here.

      Thought they would make it easier to get to this event. There's been no communication from the council or organisers about travel, even though there's talk of train strikes. Smaller councils have done a better job.

      They do sound good together, but I'm not sure Rylan will want the extra commitments.

      Rylan and Scott

      By GrimsbyGal · Posted

      I have accepted Chris is unlikely to join Scott's show, and that Chappers has moved on, but I still think he could do with a co-host. The most logical solution, I think, is Rylan. He appears more often on his show than not, and they are great together. Radio 2 could lose Rylan's Saturday show and extend his reach by appearing during the week. I think they'd be great!

      Tattoo took a while to grow on me. I couldn't see the fuss until weeks after. We have a split household here where the war on Gaza is overshadowing an enjoyment. I'm hoping for a protest of some sort.

      I've heard that the staging is very impressive.  That and him being "known" might prevent an embarrassing result.  I'm a terrible judge of Eurovision though as Tattoo is still so very meh to me.

      Feels like after the success of Sam Ryder we are going back to our old ways. Olly Alexander's song is pretty weak. Anyone fancy our chances this year?

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      By coffeeandgin · Posted

      The more time goes on the more you think if they'd actually put some thought into it it should've been Vick & Katie from the start. A proven pairing and Katie ended up on the show anyway - whereas Katie's even mentioned she was only asked to join after the Jamie announcement And even by Going Home standards on time off, it's quite funny that a few months in we still haven't had a full week of the supposed line-up - and that's with a 4-day week.
