Summer on Radio 1

[simon38]

easter monday and it's change around...

7am-10am - zane lowe

10am-1pm - judge jules

1pm-4pm - rob da bank

[Jono]

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.

[simon38]

it does'nt say what on at 4pm,not at the bbc press office site anyway

[Jono]

"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."

[Kelly]

Zane will be awesome, but I'm not looking forward to Westwood.

[Jono]

Zane will be awesome, but I'm not looking forward to Westwood.

Something for everyone. I can imagine he'll be doing his comedy routine to get some publicity.

[simon38]

just seen the westwood bit. wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the evening is the 1xtra festival best of

[Jono]

Probably some Kooks action too.

It'll be interesting to 'wake up with Zipper' and 'go home with Westwood'.

[Rudolf]

Love Zane, cannot stand Westwood, I actually want to hit him.:*:shock:

[James R]

Love Zane, cannot stand Westwood, I actually want to hit him.:*:shock:

I agree with the westwood part. I neither like nor dislike zane. But then I dont listen to him much to judge

[Rudolf]

I like the funny stuff which goes on, during the switch over at 7PM.

Also his voice is nice to listen too, unlike Sara Cox or Westwood.

Edith, Jo, and Nihal all have fine voices, people like Fern, eh no.

[The Stig]

I won't be listning anyway but I if I was I'd honestly rather listen to some of the awful local radio stations I have near me than Westwood. Zane on breakfast would be worth a listen though.

[Mike]

this sounds amezzin!

[Jugalug]

Awesome idea, I'll almost certainly be listening.

I do hope it won't be playlist with some of 'their' stuff - but I'm sure it won't.

[kieranlincoln]

I think over easter it would work OK like this

6:30-10 Zane Lowe

10-1 Annie Mac

1-4 Nemone (Bring her back!!)

4-7 Greg James

I have no idea why I think it would work though

[Jono]

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.

[Jono]

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.

[simon38]

on good friday it's best of the live lounge, not sure if that will pre-recorded

[Jono]

Good Friday is 'The Best of Chris Moyles' too. That's becoming as frequent as Scott Mills Gold now.

I hope it means there'll be Wonder Years 5pm - 6pm with no Newsbeat.

[James R]

is there a link to this info?

[augusta92]

I know I should be willing to try to listen to unfamiliar presenters...but all this lineup will do is have me reaching for the off switch, or retuning my car radio!

[Jono]

Easter Saturday and Sunday is as usual. There'll be 1Xtra Live on the Saturday night, with most weekend presenters warming up for the event.

[KingTutsWWH]

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

Bet Gill can though.

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.

[welovemoyles]

What is Rob Da Bank's style of music? i know all the others but what is Robs? :confused:
