5 year plan

Interested to know what people think the station will be like in the next 5 years.

Pretty obvious Greg won't go before 2027 but then I think Jack becomes next breakfast host. 

Katie in Live lounge

Sam and Danni on Afternoons

Dean on Drive

Arielle on future sounds 

Charlie on Friday nights and Rickie and Melvin on 1xtra Breakfast show.

 

I'd also quite like a movies show a Sunday where they discuss new films for this week and play music from it and music from other films. Could do it from 7 to 9 before r1 relax

Greg has made no secret of his desire to get the record. I think he would reject all offers til he gets it and I also don't think he will take another radio show on any station after the breakfast show ends.

With the added bad blood between Aled and Moyles then I don't think Aled will axe Greg so he can take it from him.

The only question is will anyone replace Aled in the meantime

Great post as ever however after recent events. I have no clue atm i will give this one some thought and post back soon. However i think Greg will be gone before 2027

That's my view too.  Most of us had been predicting Matt leaving and Greg leaving and being replaced Jordan.

When we think of the biggest still upcoming talents on the station such as Sam and Danni and Jack Saunders we would expect central roles.  But now who could predict them not leaving for bigger jobs elsewhere!

Right now my best guess until the end of 2025 is stability with maybe a few minor changes to specialist shows.  (Maybe Daniel P Carter moving on, maybe some of the Dance DJs being snapped up for bigger roles elsewhere, there is amazing talent in Danny, Sarah, Charlie Tee and Jeremiah).

Is this actually true? I am not sure I have ever heard/read about Greg talking of beating Moyles's record?

Doesn't mean I don't think he could do it... I think Radio 1 will be desperate to keep his stability for a while yet, and with the news of his new contract he'll definitely beat Grimmy into second longest.

I think Greg will leave next year, maybe Jordan was promised breakfast to an extent…but Not just the Jordan show. I think there is no breakfast show ready to take over from Greg. 
Feel for Aled because a lot of the recent decisions have been more about where in the uk they broadcast from (which maybe from above him)…it’s not as easy as putting someone in a new city. 

i think RMC leave next year too…Jordan leaving ultimately extended their shelf life. 
in terms of who’s taking over a breakfast show I have no idea!

Jack Saunders is far too much for breakfast. I like him but he’s awful on the charts show and doesn’t have a lot about him. He’s just the shoutout king and team this or that. 

I reckon it will either be Matt and Mollie on breakfast, unless they don’t want to do it. Then they may take a punt on Sam and Dani. 

I highly doubt RMC will leave, most DJs leave if they have tv shows to fall back on and none of them do. I can see Vick and Katie presenting that show though and think they’d be great at it. 

Mid afternoon could go to Nat and James from Salford.

Drive could be Sam and Dani’s or Vicky and Emil from Salford. 

Jack will be future sounds, Arielle will be far too old to be doing that show if he ever moves on. 

Sian to do the 20:00 slot in whatever format it is.

Some of the phrases on here are very funny, the shoutout king 😂 Jack is great whenever I catch bits of him on the evening shows and delivering the new music but I get what you mean and I much prefered Scott on the chart.

It feels like arielle is going to stay with the dance djs now .I do think Katie will stay with R1 across this time period being discussed. Nat and vicky could stay as a thing but equally James and Katie could if Vick left in the next few years. I don't think she'll be there in 18 months - 2 years

    • There was talk on my Big Weekend group from the council about them waiting for Ticketmaster to send an email out. They said they've been waiting a week. Maybe they're waiting for train strike confirmation first. 
    • It’s on Saturday and Friday that week too. I guess this would make sense, as it gives them roughly 6 weeks off weekends until they start the new show?
    • Yeah he's on more than usual including this Sunday and then 3 more shows in May according to the above. Makes me think it's James for the weekend shows also
    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
