It seems odd that the forum has been upgraded to vBulletin but none of the posts or members are there any more. It looks better, but the website itself scares me a little.

I think if the forum was a bit more up-to-date with the world of Radio 1 I'd take a bit more interest. Because it doesn't I don't get round to visiting much. It's nice to hear Aled's views on things, but since the launch of the team blogs the best bits seem to be repeated on the Moyles pages.

I like it. Its a far cry from the last design, which was awful on the eye.

He may talk, but it makes it different.

I dont think they wanted the posts or post counts to be there from the previous forum, the members were too competitive, and so were posting junk.

I like it, the new design has made a vast improvment and theres soo many features on there now, like a ranking thing, some fancy picture viewer and a who's online feature, which kinda shows off web 2.0 a lot.

I dont think too much of it was junk, perhaps the word association thread got a little carried away but thats one thread and was a good distraction, thats not going to be allowed much on the new site thanks to ranking etc

I think its great a Broadcaster / Producer has the time and the effort to create a website for people who are fans of him. Who cares if its cringe worthy? You have see outside of the box and look at it from a different perspective. This is 5 months in the making, this is the collective effort of his friends and other members and as a result its a birthday present.

aled.info is a outstanding effort and people should look at its an achievement. Its not here to serve his ego, if such a thing actually exists? Its here to serve those as another friendly enviroment, similar to Unofficial Mills where people who are fans of said Producer or the show. Rarely does a thread mention Aled.

Its not as if you see Aled on every newspaper, following out of clubs. He's making no gain from having a website. Its just like anyone else having a website of their own.

Yes, it may come across as a bit of an ego boost, but if you knew the real meaning of the place then you'd understand.

I didn't like this place at first, I couldn't stand Jono or Scott Mills, but i've grown to REALLY like it here. I like to think here and there are similar and its somewhere you can talk about shows and meet similar like minded people.

As a close, I think the site is outstanding and everyone involved has made a great effort to deliver.

      Jordan North's first Capital Radio breakfast show

      By coffeeandgin · Posted

      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.

      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.

      The eighth floor

      By Lily Georgia · Posted

      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.

      Rylan and Scott

      By xxladybarefootxx · Posted

      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

      There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine.

      I felt it was much better with the staging and everything.  I still cannot warm to his voice but he's a very good performer. Ireland was everything though.
