That's a good idea. I guess it'll be pre-recorded, but you can't have it all. Does that mean Scott's on 4pm till 7pm?

Would rather have some Dance Anthems in there. Maybe Scott will have something like that in-store.

Can't imagine waking up to Zane Lowe's show though.

"BBC Radio 1 is making things interesting this Easter Monday and turning the schedule upside down, putting listeners' favourite presenters from the evening on during the day.

Anything could happen as Zane Lowe is let loose at Breakfast (7-10am), followed by Rob da Bank who presents a unique three-hour mix of music (10am-1pm). Judge Jules then serves up a slice of classic dance (1-4pm) and Westwood brings listeners home (4-7pm) with heavy hit after heavy hit."

The whole point is that they're trying to promote the specialist DJs. So I don't see the idea behind your schedule.

To be honest, I do not see the point. Fair enough easter is possibly ging to have low ratings but with putting on people who are used to working during nights on during the day could have a even more adverse effect on the station. The only one i can see working is Zane Lowe, however the rest of them , especially Westwood, will lose ratings.

But it's an Easter Monday. The bosses are hardly going to be crying into their coffee if anyone doesn't perform well. I imagine most of it will be pre-recorded anyway as very few DJs want to work Easter Monday. Even daytime staff.

It looks like it'll be the 'Student Radio Award Winners' up till 7am, and Daniel P Carter between 7pm and 9pm.

Bet Gill can though. :D

I quite enjoyed Rob da Bank the other night, so will be listening. I think this promotion of Radio 1's more alternative DJs is a good idea.

      Summer on Radio 1

      By ianwilk1999 · Posted

      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.

      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?

      I wouldn't be surprised if they do this around June time: 05.00 Ore Olukoga 07.00 Greg James 10.30 RMC 14.00 VKJ  That'll probably happen (for my guess) from the 17th June. And for weekends: 07:00 Sam & Danni 11:00 Gregor Davidson 15:00 Charlie Hedges Maybe Fridays aswell: 07:00 Greg James 11:00 Gregor Davidson 14:30 Jack Saunders
