Haha there's an advert for Now 69 out next week. I remember the days when I'd buy a NOW album everytime they came out.

I'm not sure why I like Elliot Minor but I do. I like their style.

Haha, Claire on reception is nice. It's funny it only took her five minutes to learn my name.

I don't get it why people would not give one pound through the website. Instead of texting, because if you did it through the website you know that 100% will go to Sport Relief, not like on 64P and that's on the best service. Stupid greedy people.

Yeah can't wait for the surgery this week!

Not every has a credit or debit card. Teenagers are more likely to have lots of credit than money in the bank, and it all counts.

Finally! Flirt Divert! And then the wonder years, must fetch tea for optimum enjoyment of this fine programming.

Haha!! These are great flirt diverts today. You've got to add a couple to the sound clips :D

Estelle and cleaner to top it off, my goodness.

Can't wait for Chappers to return. The only thing that I've laughed out loud at this week has been when Chappers has been on the phone.

Pahaha, some local newspaper reporter just e-mailed me and called me 'Juno'. Not impressed.

I agree...

I wonder what wonder years we'll here today.

I used to buy NOW albums they used to be great, all the best songs in the chart from that time in the year, put into one album.

Scott's timings are poor today. A three minute track at 5pm means the Wonder Years will be late (news still to come!) meaning we'll have to cut a song at the end or 5.45 Newsbeat will be late. Which means the Floor Fillers will start late!

Since I'm normally listening on SKY or Freeview or on my computer or phone with just occasionally in the car, the time is never what it seems - Newsbeat seems always to be late!

If you were the producer I'm sure you'd be very strict, Jono. You'd probably fine Scott, or ground him so he couldn't go to the tanning salon. :D

UM is a nice place

1996: Soul II Soul - Keep On Moving

1997: Beck - The New Pollution (I admit Google helped a bit with that one, I knew it was Beck just didn't know the song!)

1998: All Seeing Eye - And The Beat Goes On

Pffft, Scott spoiled the next one.

1999: Goo Goo Dolls - Iris (they were so good at V! :P)

Does no one play this game anymore?!

    • I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right! 
    • Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!
    • Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.
    • If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.
    • The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!
    • What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.
    • 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.
