They could do with adding a small 'rounded corners' image at the end of the bar and make it blend slightly better.

I much prefer the daytime layout, i think the evening layout is too dark and not very appealing. Wheras the 1xtra site is using a nice blue. Just noticed there both using the same style header now.

1Xtra does look smart. The content looks a bit bare though.

I wonder if the Chart Show is both of them as opposed to just Fearne.

Interesting:

One thing i've picked up from that, which he dosent really talk about, is that they're doing the video stuff (currently on Moyles) for switch too. God thats going to be boring (and yes I know its not really aimed at me! :))

Well that's been known about since yesterday hasn't it?

Shoot me - I brought an old topic back.

But, has anybody recently looked at the Radio 2 website over the past few weeks? They've been improving it again and it looks really nice.

The main reason i've brought this back up is because of how the presenter pages now look, which is very very nice. I wonder if we can expect an update to the Radio 1 website soon? I'd imagine they would bring it in line with the other sites, especially as its nicer.

It would depend on whether they've completed all of the other pages. BBC Asian Network was one of the most recently updated mini-sites too.

Just taken a look at the Asian Networks site, don't like what they've done with the presenter pages, its not as creative and well 'nice' as the Radio 2 site.

All of the BBC blogs are being gradually upgraded to a new, wide template, and Radio 1's blogs are currently in progress.

So far:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/radio1movies/

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/zanelowe/

Personally, I'm surprised the Moyles team still have a blog, it's just mostly "What are we doing today", on some days. Maybe it'll have a natural death like http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/jowhiley/ did... other DJs, like Greg, make much better use of it.

    • Yeah they make the weekend shifts go so much quicker. Like today, the piece about Matt falling asleep in the cafe was funny, it's clear to see why they're going to weekdays. It could well be they were thinking of Danny for it and like you say have decided against that, or like I said at the start it's James Cusack and the slow down on the announcement is him getting out of his contract. Remember he works for radio 1's main rivals. I think it's quite telling that he's doing more r1 cover than usual, tomorrow and then a further 3 weekend shows in a row
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky between the 28th-30th May.
    • I suspect they’re gonna tie the announcement into something, or they’ve changed plans. I know we’ve said it as a joke but I wonder if Aled was planning on giving it to someone like Danny Beard, but he’s decided against that after the last few weeks. Seems clear to me, though, that if Jordan hadn’t left, then Katie would’ve taken Dean and Vicky’s slot and Matt and Mollie would’ve stayed on weekends, which probably explains why they haven’t picked a replacement yet. If it was going to be the obvious choice, I.e. James Cusack, surely they would’ve announced it by now..?
    • Yep think they mentioned that this is their penultimate weekend of shows but then they will also be on air during Big Weekend and they mentioned they'll be doing 'Party Anthems' on stage during Big Weekend which sounds intriguing. Will miss Matt & Mollie on weekends - they in particular have made that Friday afternoon slot their own - but they'll be great on weekdays. Do wonder if 'Summer on Radio 1' is just a placeholder name until they decide on who will cover the interim. While it's obviously not the case it does feel like they've forgotten there's that weekend afternoon slot to fill given no permenant presenter has been announced for it yet.
    • Zoe Ball is back on the breakfast show on Monday.
    • Just listening to matt and mollie at work and heard them say it's their second to last show on weekends
    • And Arielle mentioned in her Instagram post that her final early breakfast show is the 27th of June - the Thursday before Glastonbury 
    • When Matt covered breakfast on 22nd April, he said their new show was starting in 10 weeks, so that’d be the 1st July.
    • Would love for it to be like the Summer Friday Thing that me and @DC were remisincing about recently. Lots of events going on that could easily form part of it.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/summer/cardiff/thursday/1.shtml
    • I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury
    • I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.
    • Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then? 
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.

    • I wouldn't be surprised if they do this around June time: 05.00 Ore Olukoga 07.00 Greg James 10.30 RMC 14.00 VKJ  That'll probably happen (for my guess) from the 17th June. And for weekends: 07:00 Sam & Danni 11:00 Gregor Davidson 15:00 Charlie Hedges Maybe Fridays aswell: 07:00 Greg James 11:00 Gregor Davidson 14:30 Jack Saunders
