Big week for Scott - and it's great he's on breakfast. Think he's got a lot more license to be creative there. And seemingly play Nickelback...

Radio 2 just as confusing as Radio 1 for schedules recently - Scott, Vernon, Tina and Spoony.

It was the same the other month when he sat in on a Saturday for Rylan, he had Sally Traffic and Lottie to bounce off. He is a brilliant solo presenter, and I actually do like his afternoon show, it's just missing 'something' that the R1 show had.  

But I think that is in part down to the slick music heavy format and the type of show management are asking him to do. Great to hear Scott on breakfast though. He now joins the list of people that have hosted both the Radio 1 and Radio 2 breakfast show.

On another note, hopefully everything is okay with Zoe Ball, she's only recently returned from holiday and was suddenly off on Friday.

I think the fact there’s more time helps as well, having only 2 hours in the afternoon isn’t really enough and doesn’t feel like there’s much in the show due to how much music there is, probably why they changed the podcast to weekly instead of daily.

Yeah I didn't think it was scheduled cover. Interesting it's the first time Scott has done it, perhaps they feel now is the right time to get him experimenting with other slots (so to speak).

I really hope Scott gets the breakfast show, he was so great today. Zoe is really good but Scott is so much better in breakfast than in his afternoon slot. However it’ll be difficult to choose between Greg and Scott but I’ll have to go with Scott.

First time Chris and Scott have gone head-to-head on the radio?

Very Interesting that they're head to head now. There's so much choice over breakfast now: Jordan, Chris and Sian on Capital, Scott on Radio 2, Greg on Radio 1, Chris Moyles on Radio X. All from Radio 1 (apart from Sian).

There's been some really trashy reports about Zoe recently. As others say, we'd be less likely discussing this if it was a bloke. https://www.express.co.uk/celebrity-news/1927323/zoe-ball-bbc-radio-2-salary-backlash

There is clearly big stuff going on in Zoe's life so this is very inappropriate, regardless of her salary.

Think I might cheat on Radio 1 for the next few weeks and give Scott a listen. Can always catch up with Greg on the podcast

Exactly what I'm doing, The fact that Greg has a podcast makes it a lot easier to listen back cause they usually don't miss any big moments on there.

I wonder if our Gregory and our Mills will be popping out for a coffee together over the next few weeks?

I bet they have seen each other in the kitchen when songs are playing

Althogh Greg is on until 11 at the moment and Scott is on until 0930 so he will be home before Greg finishes

Interesting they have only now let him cover, I can only imagine that this is trying Scott out as permenent cover or Gabby Roslin and Gary Davies are not about

Maybe they will now use Scott (hoping so) going forward for breakfast cover ala R1 and someone else like Gary or OJ or Spoony covers 2-4 all the time, which would make sense going back to the Evans era for the first time when Sara was the permenent cover

Something tells me that Sara will get breakfast next because she hasn't covered in Zoe's time at all

      Another slight update, James Cusack on the 3rd Janaury is just a generic show rather than Party Anthems.

      Not yet. Radio 1 usually do a press release and the names are added then

      Good point - they could do best of Greg, Live Lounge, Matt and Mollie (not sure there were any best bits of Dean and Vicky) and Going Home. Of course if Going Home was included they'd have to start after Jordan left 😛

      I’m pretty sure they’ve already said it will be late January. Apparently Trevor let slip at some point that his show was starting at the end of Jan so I’m guessing all the changes will take place on January 27th?

      I see Gaby is covering breakfast so I assume she is covering the following week as well and Scott starts on like the 6th or something? do you remember when Zoe started it was like the 2nd or 3rd of Jan 2019 wasn't it?

      Steffan Powell (former Radio 1 Newsbeat presenter/newsreader) is sitting in for Owain Wynn Evans on New Year's Day/2nd/3rd January. A few other schedule changes going into December: Shaun Keaveny in for Liza Tarbuck tonight (30th November) Tina Daheley in for Jeremy Vine on Tuesday 3rd December Jason Mohammed in for Owain on Friday 6th December. Romesh off again next week (7th) so Emma Willis sits in Nick Grimshaw in for Rylan on Saturday 14th, 21st and 28th (I assume he's in the following Saturday as well with Rylan still in Panto).

      I do wish they’d do more with Christmas limbo week than just anthems. Been my complaint each year. Letting them do playlists and requests would actually be so much better or even if Radio 1 did favourite content from the year (guests, Big Weekend, features etc). I’ll be turning off for limbo week again

      To be honest  I don't think the first point is that important. But the Anthems thing at christmas is now really dull - this is now 6 years of it. I'd rather it was very playlisted and just text ins and shouts.

      What do you think to my email to Aled?    Dear Aled. I hope you’re well. I just have a couple of queries regarding the Christmas schedules for Radio 1 that I hope you won’t mind answering. 1. What is the idea on the 23rd and 24th December cutting the shows to only 3 instead of 5 with Dean starting breakfast and both Lauren and Sam and Danni doing 4 hour shows? They are normal working days and I’d imagine the most fun to be working? I’d have early breakfast (cover) Dean atbreakfast, Lauren in mid morning and Sam or Danni to do afternoon and the other going home if you really couldn’t get other cover.  2. How come on the Christmas limbo week the only feature is anthems?  Why do the line up get to do the specialist shows but don’t get do their spin on the breakfast show, live lounge covers or other features. I get early breakfast being rested that week. Nadolig Llawen to everyone at Radio 1 and your family

      Pleased Christmas Day is at 7am as 8am is way too late.    New Year’s Day on the other hand should be no earlier than 7
