Just replace her with Colin. I completely forgot how good he was on the Radio - I don't listen to his Late Night Show as I have early starts. Bring him back to 1-4 and scoot Edith off for a less sociable hour.

Colin wouldn't though, he says he prefers it in his night time slot as he has more choice over the music he plays... If he did 1-4 he would end up being able to choose only 3 songs, the rest he would be told what to play.

I doubt if Colin would come back to R1daytimes....

But if they allowed him to choose his own playlist...(like Chris Moyles who hardly plays any music unless he likes it!) Id prefer him to Edith!

Also Edith already copies half of what Colin does- so it often feels as if hes there in any case!

Seriously though, WHO could, is available to, would like to, will be forced to (etc) take over Edith's show?

Leaving aside personal opinions as to who SHOULD take on the show, who is the most likely successor in your opinion?

How about Vicki Blight to replace Greg and Greg to replace Edith?

I imagine Vicki comes in to the equation somewhere. I think Greg will be Sara's cover, although I reckon Greg will cover for Nihal whilst Edith is off. Either that or they'll let James King do it full time.

Me.

Nah, i think the person who said that Vicki takes over Early Brekkie and Greg does it will be right, and if that is the case, and vicki can't make it all the time... well i have no social life :P

      I think they should just bring that back as was. It's been nearly 20 years, so do it with a whole bunch of new DJ's.

      I think this year has taught us we know nothing 🙂 Nobody would ever have credibly predicted Jordan leaving and all the changes that followed.   I have another interest outside radio and it is exactly the same - the stuff you never expect to happen is exactly what does.

      Yeah they make the weekend shifts go so much quicker. Like today, the piece about Matt falling asleep in the cafe was funny, it's clear to see why they're going to weekdays. It could well be they were thinking of Danny for it and like you say have decided against that, or like I said at the start it's James Cusack and the slow down on the announcement is him getting out of his contract. Remember he works for radio 1's main rivals. I think it's quite telling that he's doing more r1 cover than usual, tomorrow and then a further 3 weekend shows in a row

      I suspect they’re gonna tie the announcement into something, or they’ve changed plans. I know we’ve said it as a joke but I wonder if Aled was planning on giving it to someone like Danny Beard, but he’s decided against that after the last few weeks. Seems clear to me, though, that if Jordan hadn’t left, then Katie would’ve taken Dean and Vicky’s slot and Matt and Mollie would’ve stayed on weekends, which probably explains why they haven’t picked a replacement yet. If it was going to be the obvious choice, I.e. James Cusack, surely they would’ve announced it by now..?

      Yep think they mentioned that this is their penultimate weekend of shows but then they will also be on air during Big Weekend and they mentioned they'll be doing 'Party Anthems' on stage during Big Weekend which sounds intriguing. Will miss Matt & Mollie on weekends - they in particular have made that Friday afternoon slot their own - but they'll be great on weekdays. Do wonder if 'Summer on Radio 1' is just a placeholder name until they decide on who will cover the interim. While it's obviously not the case it does feel like they've forgotten there's that weekend afternoon slot to fill given no permenant presenter has been announced for it yet.

      And Arielle mentioned in her Instagram post that her final early breakfast show is the 27th of June - the Thursday before Glastonbury

      When Matt covered breakfast on 22nd April, he said their new show was starting in 10 weeks, so that’d be the 1st July.

      Would love for it to be like the Summer Friday Thing that me and @DC were remisincing about recently. Lots of events going on that could easily form part of it.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/summer/cardiff/thursday/1.shtml

      I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury

      I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.

      By Dan18F1 · Posted

      Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then?

      But they said the main changes would happen in July.
