Jazzies!

Were they the same thing? So many names! The milk chocolate were better.

Those lollies which were round and one colour on top and a different on the bottom were the best. No idea what they were, they weren't normal lollies, but they were like 10p a lolly.

What was that stuff you'd get in a little sachet that fizzed when you poured it on your tongue? Think it was orange flavoured too...

Oh I remember something like that. Were these the ones with the crunchy lolly that had two flavours - like orange and raspberry and you licked the lolly and dabbed it in?

Oh, Wham bars!!

They are barely sold anywhere anymore, sad. They used to cost 10p, very yummy.

I think Wham Bars and Fruits salads (are these still sold?) are responsible for at least 2 of my 4 fillings. Anyone think I have a case against Trebor (or whoever makes them nowadays)?

Actually no - you just bought the sachet of dust like stuff and poured it on your tongue. I have a feeling it might have been banned for being in some way dangerous, but not sure...

That was moon rock or something wasn't it?

Multitasking to the max here. Talking on webcam on MSN, listening to the show, facebooking and all sorts.

I mentioned it a moment ago a double dipdab... Pfff pay attention.

Santogold is going to think that voicemail's a joke, I imagine. She'll just delete it. :D

Like Wing Ring. That poor girl who accused it of not being Scott. Heh.

Swizzel's lollies Jono, I loved them! They were banned at my primary school I remember in case we fell over and choked on them or something.

Yes, that's right. Hurrah. Used to hurt my tongue because I'd lick them for as long as possible.

I've always wondered why they never used the Countdown music for this feature. The way Greg announced it he sounded like a young Richard Whitley.

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
