Chappers is very funny, very sharp and witty - often more so than Scott. I'm not sure why you don't like him - perhaps because he comes across as grumpy - but I'm certain this is all done in irony.

Yeah, there's a lot of comedy in grumpy. Just think of Jack Dee, Jeremy Clarkson or Larry David to name but a few. I must admit when I first started listening I didn't really get Chopper's sense of humour but he definitely grew on me, and now I can't imagine the show without him! I happen to agree with him on a lot of things but maybe that's just cos i'm turning into a grumpy old man myself!

It's more a case of chalk and cheese. Or even a case of he's too much like me, where the hell is Freud when you need him?

Its funny Scott hasnt mentioned anything about Laura leaving during todays show.Are you sure you havent got it wrong Jono?

You'd know all about getting things wrong wouldn't you?

I can't believe this. This is like Aled leaving Chris' show to work with Nihal :(

Personally I don't think Aled leaving Chris' show would have as large impact as Laura leaving Scott's show as Chris has Dom, Dave, Carrie and Rachael to keep the show going.

Yes, can't imagine anyone will replace her on-air. Although that said, if she does a stint as the chart show producer she might be reunited with Scott in future years.

Someone will need to produce the breakfast show when Moyles leaves, and who knows, that could be Scott's new slot. Would TOTDS really want to produce another breakfast show after Cox and Ball?

I don't think Moyles will quit until he turns 40, by which time he'll have done 10 years on the show.

Unfortunately from the end of the next month there'll be team changes at Radio 1 towers. Laura is to leave the Scott Mills show after four years working with the Lord.

is it Laura's last day today :?:

good luck Laura :)

That means the end of March since Jono posted that in February.

I guess the money was better there :confused:

That's generally the case with a job promotion. It's also a opportunity to advance and challenge yourself further.

I'm happy that Laura has gotten a promotion but I want to be selfish and keep her on the show! It won't be the same without hearing her crazy opinions on random things :(

It's not all bad though, she'll be going off to produce Fearne and Reggie's weekend shows and so it means she'll be getting a promotion. However it does mean she'll no longer be appearing on Scott's show with her random stories nor will you hear her laugh in the background every afternoon.

I just can't understand how that is a promotion surly working on the Scott Mills show it higher? Oh wait did you mean she will be the producer and not the co-producer?

    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
