I like being able to watch things when I want to. TV schedules stress me out, my life is ruled by timetables enough already without my leisure being timetabled as well. Also we only have 1 TV between 5 of us here.

Meh, get Sky+. Sorted it out for us. The only thing I watch is the soaps. I don't get all this iPlayer stuff. Too much hassle and clogs my computer up.

Lost is as bad as 2 Pints of Larger if you ask me. Seems to go on forever and ever. Then again if it was repeated more I'd perhaps understand it better.

I reckon the actors will be dead before we will be dead, then they'll be buggered. They'll have to do what Dot does and talk on cassette tapes to continue the story.

Paramore's cover of Kaiser Chiefs' Love's Not a Competition from the Live Lounge was good. And Hayley looks fit in the pictures online.

It's only bloody pancake day tomorrow. So chances are there'll be family arguments during tomorrow's Your Views as we argue over who wants more, who is making it, who has made the mess and whatever.

Not such a religious day when your parents are effing and jeffing!

Well said about Lost Scott - the less episodes of that program the better!

It'll be like ruddy Neighbours soon. That leaves BBC One on Friday for Five. No one cares when things go from BBC, ITV or Channel 4 to alien channels.

It's not like we can pick up Channel 5 on normal telly here. Not so much a problem with Freeview though.

'I wanna have another go ON you.' :shock:

She sounds like a bouncey castle.

Isn't that 'bouncy', miss?

It's been busy on here today - mark my words - no one will be on tomorrow and I'll be all alone!

Neighbours is actually AMAZING at the moment. Which reminds me, i need to get my mate to record Wednesdays and Fridays episodes as i will not be here. i will miss the evening repeats too for those who like to state the obvious :D:P

Nah, Hollyoaks is where it's all at. You'll be telling me you watch Echo Beach next.

I gotta go now. see you tomorrow (you're not going to be on your own jono, don't worry)

I just need someone to hold my hand to get me through it all :cry:

That Alex Zane is up next. I love him on those T4 shows.

And to add to the soaps discussion - they are all rubbish!

Just 'cos you don't have a telly! TTFN 'Anish.

    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
    • Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?
    • I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.
    • Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.
    • I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.
    • With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot. 
    • Conor Knight is in for Sam & Danni on Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June. It's Radio 1 at Parklife, 13.00-16.00 on Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June. Matt & Mollie are in for Greg from Monday 10th to Friday 14th June - it's just Matt on the Thursday. It's Radio 1 at Download, 13.00-16.00 on Friday 14th June.
