Well we can add Eamonn Holmes to his list of impressions. Hope that doesn't mean he's today's guest.

Maybe they should play Jo Whiley clips of Paul saying "sounds like award winning radio to me". She might laugh more....

Also what's going on in the background? You can hear a bit of studio talk in between the songs I'm sure.

Could have fooled me, I have no idea what the day is when it's 7am in the morning. Does this show not put the worst images in your head?

That music, Eamonn Holmes looking at Laura's wabs, a dwarf with his wanger in the hoover, Lorraine Kelly singing about bras...

You have to laugh at BBC Switch. I'm half expecting Annie Mac to come out holding a sock just to show Scott how kids presenting is done.

This in the Daily Mail recently. They some how managed to remove Emma's baby. Either way you're on to a winner if it's a spice girl, Chopper can look after their kids and entertain them.

This happened in Hollyoaks. Craig found out the toughness of it all when his girlfriend Sara became a model. I don't really remember what happened, but he got upset, and the next minute he was in bed with another man. I'm not sure that's typical of every boyfriend of a model though...

I feel a little uneasy at the moment, I seem to like both Shayne Ward Warn's new song and Leona Lewis' new song. What's the betting I don't like the X Factor 2007's winning song.

Also that's flipping marvellous. They'll deliver Chappers a costume hat thingy, but they won't deliver anything else till Thursday.

I'm worried already Scott's going to embarrass himself of a Spice Girls legend by getting them to sing the ladies bras song!

Haha, Daniell O'Donnell's latest calendar is something special. There was loads at the local radio station I was at. There's lots of cheesy poses of him in his home.

Have they moved him into the garage instead? It might not be anything. My postman always leaves stuff in the garage. It's probably a desk or something that the postie couldn't be arsed to deliver to the door.

Hi Jono just here for 10 mins between shower and having to finish getting ready to go - I agree the shows have been good this week - breakfast obviously has a different atmosphere to afternoons but I've loved Matt Damon and the A listers.

Also -I own a Henry and I'm never going to look at him the same way again. :shock:

UM is a nice place

Well thank god they got rid of that irritating In New Music We Trust *beep beep beep beep* jingle.

I was trying to explain to my friend about Captain Dan. It took more time trying to explain politely what a 'wanger' was... sigh!

Stupid early morning... I had images of David Gest when he said "David Walliams".

Two Emma's. That'd be my worst nightmare. All Emma's are evil, they'll suit evil shouting like this.

Tesco? Someone needs to do this in Budgens in Norfolk.

Like we're open before 8 o'clock...

Oh sorry - so used to 24 hour supermarkets but then I think the nearest Budgens to me is in Ascot - obviously they're far too posh to open early :D

David Walliams gives me the creeps possibly even more than David Gest. Can't imagine any man or woman wanting to be with him to be honest. Russell Brand is more my idea of a man who should be gay but isn't.

Sod the Spice Girl, I want to know what's in that garage now.

I think Emma - she's nice and also has a baby so will be up early :)

I bet it's some sick joke, and it's actually Avid Merrion for both the Spice Girl and surprise guest.

I guess the model story didn't take off then? No legs? Ho ho.

Haha, I thought she said 'Headlice'. Well it'll suit Children In Need I guess.

In all fairness GMTV had the exclusive announcement. How dare he deceive us.

"It's the best venue in the world". Brilliant, so now Radio 1's Big Weekend will be coming from the Millennium Dome next year.

Still doesn't mean today's guest isn't Geri. I'm hardly looking forward to Mel C next week. And is her second life lived as a nit nurse? She going to bring in the shampoo and nit combs?

If so they best disinfect the green room, remember when those bugs were on the sofa? Could be headlice next.

I'd quite like Moira Stuart sometime. She's not doing much now. She could guest present Newsbeat too 8)

He's wheeling in the guest? That must mean it's someone in a wheel chair. OMG! It's gotta be Stephen Hawking.

I think they should bring out some of the older jingles back. Moyles uses the old ones now too, so I don't see why they should stick with the same style.

Radiohead have an album out soon. I hope to god it's not one of them. How depressing would that be?

And wow, I've found the next role for Laura: The join the Spice Girls audition band.

"VH1 is to celebrate the Spice Girls reunion tour by putting together a girl power tribute band.

The six episodes of Wannabe: Spice Girls will intersperse footage of the auditioning process with clips of the iconic girl group's chart-topping pop career.

Auditions will take place in the home towns of the pop five-piece - London, Watford, Leeds and Liverpool - from October 19."

    • I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
    • Some similar names to Big Weekend.  Sabrina Carpenter, David Guetta, Perrie, Bradley Simpson, Jax Jones, Caity Baser, Benson Boone, Rudimental. David Guetta is a good name. 
    • Still Scott for me. I'm not too much into the 70s and 80s radio 2 play but do love the injection of 90s and 00s. Then Radio 2 push for all this country stuff and it not a UK thing, and I frankly don't like it. Scott's show as in features, hit and miss. I like the music police bit, but it feels like someone needs to join him. It's a shame Chappers is so busy with sports, as it feels like it could do with someone like him jumping on to help. Or a new partner. Radio 1, take or leave. Matt and Mollie are OK from what I've heard and share a good connection, but it's the playlist that throws me off. They could bring back Chris Moyles to do that show, but as soon as something like Headie One comes on with that casino keyboard produced crap. It would still be switched off from me. 
    • Reading through this thread, I don't feel quite so alone now, in thinking that Scott Mills on R2 is not a good 'fit' (even less so than on R5).  I can't quite explain why this is so - I just know it to be so.
    • Arielle has been on holiday for the last 2 weeks getting married / honeymoon.  It'll be live from this week onwards.
    • CassKidd is in for Sian on Sunday 5th May.
    • The brought to tiers feature was also very good from them. I did wonder which DJ's were going to get picked out of the hat, that could have gone one way or the other and the caller said they were very opinionated lol. Correct decision putting katie in god tier!
    • The extended Dua Lipa track from M&M was very funny. I'm hoping Matt and Mollie and Scott have a good relationship a bit like Greg and Zoe collaborate on-air sometimes.
    • Gary Davies in for Vernon Kay tomorrow (Monday 29th April).
