I think Annie Mac must be taking a break in September as Nihal is taking over weekend afternoons leaving Grimmy on Switch and it looks like Chappers and Dave will present weekend breakfast until Annie returns so that Grimmy can takeover mornings?

Where does it actually list ,accurately, who is doing which show when? I thought the R1 site only did about a week in advance and was changed almost at the last minute to cover holidays etc?

I still think its strange that Edith, if she wants to come back part-time (which is perfectly fair for any mum.) Isnt coming back onto her old show for a couple of days a week...and just continuing to share with Vernon and Fearne. instead shes been shifted to sunday mornings with a different format and team to the one she is used to. And next week, according to this weeks Radio Times, shes having Sara Cox cover for her...

Yeah, Sara Cox is doing Edith's show for a bit. It seems some DJs have been moved around and others haven't.

Saturday 6th/Sunday 7th

7am Chappers & Dave

10am Vernon Kay / Dick and Dom

1pm Nihal

4pm Fearne n Reggie

7pm Switch with Nick Grimshaw

I've given up now. I'll turn on the radio and anyone could be on.

"Your listining to Radio 1 it's JK and Joel back for one week only in for Nick Grimshaw who's in for Coxy who's covering Edith while she does Dick and Dom's show and Annie Mac takes over.....

Hate to say this but thats not far wrong

They obviously wanted a teen celebrity to promote help promote Switch. Things with Peaches must have fell through.

uhhh I still have NO idea who Peaches Geldof is :S

To be honest two of my two favorites on radio one were dave pearce and dick and dom. They are both leaving. Dave pearce has always been a great dj. Dick and dom lack a little cred but they both play great music. Sad loss to both.

I am surprised that greg james hasn't had a promotion. But chappers and dave are good fun.

Gotta agree with the Dave Pearce comment.

Him, Judge Jules and Scott Mills are what make Radio 1 for me, just happy Jules and Mills aren't leaving!

    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
    • There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine. 
    • It's a big 'No' from me (Israel-Palestine). No further comments.
    • A joke about pirates: ‘but we’re not jumping ship, like someone else’
    • I felt it was much better with the staging and everything.  I still cannot warm to his voice but he's a very good performer. Ireland was everything though.
