I really do miss scott on r1. For me it was the entertainment that always came from the show, you knew no matter when you listened it was going to be entertaining and make the day go faster. A brilliant presenter.

Yeah I heard that and remember it from the podcast. I haven't heard much of going home this week. Surely the mentioning Jordan is not actually serious? I'm curious to the context also

🥳

Dean's unwell today (according to Vicky at the start of the show) so Nat O'Leary is sitting in for him.

Sat 25th and Sun 26th May 07:00-10:00 - Conor Knight in for Sam and Danni 10:00 - 11:00 - Conor Knight covers Anthems [the schedule on Sat says Sam and Danni are still doing 10-10:30 anthems but I think this is likely an error: Conor is doing the full anthems hour on Sunday, and it makes no sense on Sat for S&D to pop back up for half an hour in between Conor's shows] Fri 31 May 10:30 - 12:45 - James Cusack in for Danny Beard

How can that be possible, when Katie said on the first episode of the new podcast that she got the call afterwards and was surprised because she'd heard about Jamie being announced and thought that was it?

Katie got offered job before Jamie. They wanted to announce Katie last in case of backlash over Jamie getting it. I met Katie recently and she told me this

Bet the bosses are cross everytime he is mentioned especially when he is sounding so great on Capital.  

Sorry! I don't really check here often - but yes i agree! I think Radio 1 back then was perfect and was amazing. I really am tempted to start a new channel filled with random BBC Radio 1/Radio 2 shows I have archived from 2007-2018! Full shows, one place 🤤 what a dream! Maybe it was just late-00's and early-10's culture then that made it even better, but I swear the music they played back then too were WAY nicer and more varied! Thank you so much for the love on 4t8 ❤️ 

Indeed - many of those same soothsayers were predicting the rise & rise of Jordon North on R1, too!

Not sure the obsession from Aled with celebrities. Between him and Danny Beard he's making some odd decisions.

Reference to Jordan having Katie’s coat (random), and potentially taking the old show box with him.

I'm curious - in what context did Vick and Katie mention Jordan? Was it r.e. Arielle's wedding?

Since Easter at the beginning of April, Vick, Katie and Jamie have been on together just 4 times. Which is crazy for a brand new, high profile Radio 1 show. Imagine Jordan being off that regularly on Capital because of ‘other commitments’ - would never happen.  Jamie has only presented 6 times in the past month. Katie has presented every single show. Given how she got the job at the last minute I think very likely she would have had other commitments, which she will have cancelled/rearranged, cos being Radio 1 drive time host is a massive gig.   Vick, Katie and Jamie - 4 times; Vick and Katie - 10 times; Katie and Jamie - 2 times; Katie and Lauren - 2 times. 

I see Katie (and Mairead) were out with Jordan tonight.  I don’t listen to the show any longer, I am shocked they are allowed to mention Jordan.
