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

A bit of EVERYTHING really. He's Radio 1's 'replacement' for John Peel. It's a VERY tough job, but I think he is doing pretty well.

Students from Cambridge student radio station CUR1350 are claiming their prize of a show on Radio 1 this weekend as seven presenters host the early show on Bank Holiday Monday.

The special show is in recognition of CUR1350's Best Student Radio Station award at the SRA's (Student Radio Awards) in November 2007.

The presenters will make their way down to the UK's capital, to broadcast from the famous Yalding House studios on Great Portland Street with full BBC training prior to their show, which is being broadcast between 5 and 7am on Monday morning.

Michael Brooks, station manager between 2005 and 2007 is thrilled: "The level of quality is evident through the fact that the BBC is letting us loose on one of their biggest national radio stations BBC Radio 1, and we very much look forward to demonstrating to the rest of the UK what university students, staff and researchers from Cambridge University and Anglia Ruskin can listen to on CUR1350."

Ahahaha, Westwood's attempt at an "it's only bley Friday" was brilliant, Scott should get him to do it every week... you honestly wouldn't believe that he's 50 years old, I used to despise him with a passion but now he's starting to grow on me because of his sheer comedy genius.

Generally I like this 'reverse scheduling' idea but to be honest I'm not too keen on the idea of waking up to Zane Lowe...

So save the last dance

Gill and me may have to agree to disagree with you on the Zane front. I, for one think his voice might be rather appealing to wake up to in the morning.

I also used to loathe Westwood. My little brother listened to him all the time, and it was all 'SHOUTOUT to the Milton Keynes posse!' etc. Now however, I see him as a caricature and find him hilarious.

Rob da Bank is a really good DJ. Even Jo seemed a bit in awe of him on her show today.

I hope I'll be able to listen to most of the stuff on Monday, I'm rather looking forward to it.

The whole day is on my Sky+ as I had a feeling it'd be a good one. Rob Da Bank appears to have MSN open as I keep hearing the noise of people sending messages to him!

A nice bit of Laura Marling from Rob...

Bless Grace. "Is that his real name?" I think his parents would be quite harsh if they did decide to name him Rob Da Bank.

It was funny when Zane was ringing up people this morning and waking them up by playing random noises down the phone - Brandon Flowers from The Killers wasn't too impressed at being woken up at 3 in the morning Vegas time...

im really liking Zane's show and of course the return of Judge Jules live on radio 1 as supposed to being on tape with heavy hard music

Well this is the thing, it's so refreshing to hear the DJs live and to hear some live radio on a bank holiday.

Did anyone else manage to listen to the student award winners from 2am? I was awake so listened in from around 5am. They sounded really good and seemed to be pleased to be on Radio 1.

I also listened to Zane on breakfast. It was funny to hear him say what the various jingles were called before playing them. Shame he didn't get Norman "Fat Boy Slim" Cook on the phone.

"Hallelujah"

      Summer on Radio 1

      By R1Fan1 · Posted

      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..?

      Summer on Radio 1

      By coffeeandgin · Posted

      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?

      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

      The Summer on Radio 1 thing makes me wonder whether they might be doing something similar to last year again where they have a temporary schedule over the summer before introducing changes in September - maybe the new host won’t start until after the summer?
