I love this Leona Lewis song. The Sport Relief single was pap, but this is good.

Didn't they end up making this one the main one? The other was definately not recieved as well. Leona performed this one on Sports Relief too, it really is a much better.

Oh, I don't know. It's just normally they put the pap one as the single. Presumably so they don't have to worry about too much profits being lost :rolleyes:

Quite annoyed with my friend last night. I swear she was trying to hit on me. She was like "oh let's get drunk sometime" and I was like "alright sounds good" and she was like "well I don't get drunk much as I tend to sleep with just anyone". Seemed very unlike her, especially as I thought she had a bf.

I think I can sort that in Budgens. Most people never notice what's on anyway. When the power goes off it comes back on French Satellite (normally French version of the Simpsons) so doubt anyone would notice if I plugged in my iPod.

remembering back to working in shops when a student, it's 100 times worse when you have to hear the songs on a loop all day long.

Chappers now and then would at least be a change. :)

Ah, we have Spar Live radio, which has a "No Repeat Weekend". It goes from one extreme to the other, one minute you could be listening to Doris Day, the next Timbaland.

We have Budgens radio. They used to do in-store offers but they scrapped that. We'd be lucky to have a "no repeat hour"!

Me and Hannah are trying to put together a rap based on the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air. Her idea, I just put together the lyrics. She was going to rap it, but I'm trying to track down some local radio DJs across the UK with a good sense of humour to each do a verse.

Already lined-up: Sue Marchant and Nick Robins (did a hilarious Eminem rap)

I love how northern he sounds on the first 'love' of Bleeding Love.

Have you heard a Wombats cover of Bleeding Love that's kicking around. :shock: Think I prefer Chopper's version.

I spend most of my nights now playing sound clips off my phone down the tannoy. I'm easily pleased.

Yeah, it's really good. Being a northerner myself, I think I should do it.

I'm going to have a word with my mum to see if she can let us have Chopper on.

So, reversing it: which older men with cash would you ladies on here do it with?

Yeah, we know Kelly. :rolleyes:;) Think Steven Fry is the richest, but also the least interested.:D

I just imagine it'll be like "would you like a cup of my twinings".

    • 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.
