From the Chris Moyles Blog:

Another little secret I can reveal for you now... if you LOVE listening to The Chris Moyles Show then from Monday for 5 days you're going to love WATCHING it too!!!!

This is something we've trialled for a day a few months back - it went SO well, we're extending it to a week. There will be proper Big Brother style cameras all over the studio so that you can log on at any time during the show and feel a part of the team and see what we all do. (Watch how grumpy Dave can look in the morning, or how Carrie really does hide under the desk when doing the pub quiz, about how Chris constantly wrings his hands when he speaks or how much work Rachel does in the studio - that no-one ever talks about!)

For the geeks amongst us the cameras are only ONE part of the whole experience there's a WHOLE console of cool stuff which will be revealed across the week!

Jugalug's comment was aimed at Viv and not you.

Sorry I was trying to tidy the forum up as Viv had gone and made a new thread about it so I shoehorned your post in. I get the feeling come Monday the Chris Moyles show thread won't be sufficient for all these new things.

Anyone know anything else about this? Or is it going to be a surprise tomorrow morning for us all?!

The Chris Moyles Show is basically being video streamed on Radio 1 Online for the whole of this week.

Annie mentioned they're video streaming Switch next Sunday too.

I think I would be more likely to watch it if they did it the BBC3 way like Scott did. I will never switch on my computer at that time of the morning where as while I am getting dressed in the morning I would put on my TV rather than my radio.

Ah well, maybe they will do a best of Vodcast or something.....

All I ask of the visual radio player to scale to Window size - so can leave it fullscreen. Also, it'd be nice if it showed the live text.

Apart from that, absolutely loving it.

Was just about the say the same, would be great to go full screen. They dont seem to be using IPlayer which is weird.....

I was expecting just an EMP window, but I'm glad it's not just that - it more resembles a concept video they showed on the Radio Lab blog last year which I thought was absolutely fantastic.

And by the looks of things, it gets better - looking through the survey, it mentions these features:

What parts of the Visual Radio Player did you enjoy the most? (Please tick all that apply)

Seeing the text messages coming in

Reading the song information e.g. artist biographies

‘Now playing’ song information

Watching what’s happening in the studio via the webcam

Swingometer or bar charts for polls on programmes

Live show blog

Text messages and polls could be interesting. And keep an eye on the Radio Labs log as they will probably talk about it - really interesting blog. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/radiolabs/

They must be taking a desk feed (for audio) as chris just turned the gain down on Foo Fighters and it dramatically changed the volume on the stream......

'Daves Log' is disapointing because everytime they flick between Texts and Daves Log it starts posting his messages from the beggining again. Also, it dosent get updated.....

Atleast they arn't playing up to the cameras too much like they did last time.

    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
    • Some similar names to Big Weekend.  Sabrina Carpenter, David Guetta, Perrie, Bradley Simpson, Jax Jones, Caity Baser, Benson Boone, Rudimental. David Guetta is a good name. 
    • Still Scott for me. I'm not too much into the 70s and 80s radio 2 play but do love the injection of 90s and 00s. Then Radio 2 push for all this country stuff and it not a UK thing, and I frankly don't like it. Scott's show as in features, hit and miss. I like the music police bit, but it feels like someone needs to join him. It's a shame Chappers is so busy with sports, as it feels like it could do with someone like him jumping on to help. Or a new partner. Radio 1, take or leave. Matt and Mollie are OK from what I've heard and share a good connection, but it's the playlist that throws me off. They could bring back Chris Moyles to do that show, but as soon as something like Headie One comes on with that casino keyboard produced crap. It would still be switched off from me. 
    • Reading through this thread, I don't feel quite so alone now, in thinking that Scott Mills on R2 is not a good 'fit' (even less so than on R5).  I can't quite explain why this is so - I just know it to be so.
    • Arielle has been on holiday for the last 2 weeks getting married / honeymoon.  It'll be live from this week onwards.
    • CassKidd is in for Sian on Sunday 5th May.
    • The brought to tiers feature was also very good from them. I did wonder which DJ's were going to get picked out of the hat, that could have gone one way or the other and the caller said they were very opinionated lol. Correct decision putting katie in god tier!
    • The extended Dua Lipa track from M&M was very funny. I'm hoping Matt and Mollie and Scott have a good relationship a bit like Greg and Zoe collaborate on-air sometimes.
    • Gary Davies in for Vernon Kay tomorrow (Monday 29th April).
    • When Scott and Chris announced their departure from R1, I remember there was lots of speculation about who would take over the 1pm slot. Matt and Mollie were talked about a lot on here, and at the time I really didn't rate them as a replacement. A few years on, I see that I was totally wrong. They are such a good pairing, and it's the same kind of duo as Scott and Chris, in that they are real life friends, who spend time together in their real lives, which really does come across on air. True friends having a laugh together, and everyone is invited is how it feels to me now. I never thought about it before, but I agree with @coffeeandgin that Mollie is the Scott of the duo - pop obsessed and maybe a litte ditsy, but so funny, and in need of someone to anchor to or bounce off.  It seems that Matt is the kind of Chris of the duo then in that comparison, the one with the ideas, but also needs another person to make the magic happen. I know I'm outside of the R1 demographic, and maybe Dean and Vicky were meant to be younger and fresher, but I'm sure in my younger years I would have preferred to listen to two people who had a genuine connection and could really make each other laugh, as well as have the listeners laugh along. That was the Scott and Chris factor for me, and I think the only pair that come close to that now are Matt and Mollie.
