This is one of Scott's new features, involving tone deaf blokes called Barry trying to recreate the tunes of the likes of Justin Timberlake... I found it pretty amusing.

I think he could widen the goalposts though; to move on to Garry-oke, Harry-oke... you get the gist.

Anyone else like it?

PS. Can UM's IrishBaz sing, I wonder...?

They could have put the budget into getting a better jingle. I was expecting all fireworks for the Barryoke! I'm undecided about this feature. It makes me smile, but perhaps I'm missing that one a bit. I think I'm swaying towards hating it right now.

Hi there! Don't go accusing KingTuts of spelling your name wrong, she's very touchy about spellings ;)

It took about six times cos I kept going into american rap mode man, it's a lot harder than you'd think. In the end I had to do it with no music cos its just too easy to slip into eminem's shoes ha! Oh and just for the record Scott actually changes the words so you HAVE to say Barrie, we're not all just self obsessed :)

Hello,

I'm Gemma who spoke to scott about Barry number one this morning (justin timberlake barry) he played it again while i was on air and told me to imagine he was singing to me. hahaha! i would like to have all the barry's / barries sing to me and be a barry judge!!

Rather you than me... You make it sound like it could be an X Factor style TV show. I imagine BBC Three would show it... heh.

no, it was funny though, i text in cos barry sounded like he was dancing whilst singing, its just a bit of fun and made me chuckle (not much does before 8am!)

Hey - Were you Gemma from Plymouth? I was on the bus at Roborough (You should know where i mean!) and listening on my phone. So often on radio 1 you hear the DJs speak to people up country but i took extra attention to you because you were from Plymouth! :D

Good Job!

I reckon you could be a great Barry-oke Judge haha :D:D

      It's made it into the Daily Mail as another reason to bash the station. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13417631/bbc-radio-2-facebook-tiktok-instagram.html

      Radio 1 Schedule Changes

      I expect that the axing of Chill Out Anthems may be related to the decommissioning and shutfdown of Radio 1 Relax. I assume soon BBC could announce or make official when it’s going to be shutdown

      Next Radio 1 boss

      By R1 Insider · Posted

      The next RAJAR will be putting a lot of pressure on Aled. Will his decisions over Danny Beard and Jamie Laing and to lose Jordan North pay off? If not, it is likely bosses will be looking for his successor.  I am interested to know what fans of the station think?  Ian Chaloner who worked for Greg, Scott and Grimny before rising through the ranks must stand a chance. He is now mainstream editor.  An outsider choice but Greg's former producer Chris Sawyer would be great. He has the creativity and has held the ship well on breakfast. Although I know he is no longer with them.

      Could this be similar to what Arielle Free did in Covid on Weekend Early Breakfast?

      Radio 1 Schedule Changes

      By TMD_24 · Posted

      Greg is doing Breakfast from 7am-11am on 23rd May which is a thirty minute extension of his usual Friday show and consistent with Big Weekend timings. Also it looks like from the 1st June, Radio 1 Chillout Anthems at 4am is being replaced by Radio 1 Anthems with Maia Beth and will also air at the same time on a Sunday.

      I mean I've been growing our engagement on Facebook in my department, there's still an untapped audience there. Also, as you alude to, the number of community groups has grown a lot since lockdown. I'd love to hear more about their thinking. If this had been Radio 1's strategy I don't think anyone would have disagreed.

      I think they must’ve been slowly killing of their social media presence I know for Radio 2 and 6 they do have dedicated unofficial social media groups so there is an audience. All Request Friday and features like that has a place on social media as can get requests via comment sections but I think Facebook struggles to know what it is these days.

      I just think it's more about what they're doing. If all you've got is a DJ dancing to Beyonce's latest hit for thirty seconds or Sara Cox reading out the All Request Friday number in a funny way it's not really what Facebook prioritises. I think it's great that studio interaction, but it does lend itself to Instagram and TikTok more. But I honestly believe there is a place for Facebook with the Radio 2 audience. The trouble is Radio 2 have barely used Facebook for the last year so there doesn't seem to have been a strategy there.

      Agree, all I'd see on x was medical professionals from other health trusts having a very carefully worded pop at each other, mixed in with a clip of jeremy vine with a camera on his helmet, a very strange place indeed! I imagine they have some data to back it up, but is the r2 audience really using tiktok?

      I get not putting resources into X which these days is a strange mix of angry political debate and adult content only. But you'd think Facebook was still the most popular social channel amongst Radio 2 audiences.

      Radio 2 seem to have decided that their strategy is just short video, so it does probably make sense with Instagram and TikTok. But I find it hard to believe there's not longer form content that wouldn't suit Facebook better.

      These late announcements are so lacklustre. It's not quite like the time they announced Harry Styles last minute!

      Probably got fed up of the usual moaning bastards all over it, asking for Ken Bruce and Jimmy Young back on air.

      Think it may have been better to include Radio 1 in this and 1 xtra ultimately focus on boosting a BBC Sounds social media to bring the multi-generational content marketed to a broader audience through one singular channel and having a separate social brand skewed to younger audiences maybe they should consider just having a @BBC @BBCSounds  @BBCSport @BBCNews @BBCFresh (youth brand) social media acounts national.
