I've got to agree with that one... It's all downhill from the 23rd :-(

I may actually go to the bother of changing the station at 10 as Jo does my head in- which means that Edith has lost me as a listener too as I'm not really that fond of her to bother tuning back in at 1...

I would say that the difference between Madonna and Jo is that Madonna is a genuine trendsetter- she does her own thing whether it be somewhat misguided rap, dance or disco whereas Jo is a big bandwagon jumper who craves to follow the scene rather than create her own.

Agreed. Post of the day!!8)

I think people should give Jo a chance! I'm surprised Chappers and Dave are still alive the amount of work they're doing so it's probably best Coxy takes over there and no way has Jo had her time in her weekday slot.

God, that's just suddenly depressed me. It's OK if it's Madonna because she is cool... Madonna has a new toyboy called Jesus no less, btw! I'm reading about it in "Now" today.

Jo Whiley, on the other hand, is not cool, and is rude to listeners.

Really? I'd say it's the other way round - Jo doesn't try as hard as Madonna. She doesn't run around in her pants to prove she feels younger than she really is. But then again, we've already discussed Madonna so I won't be going into that.

I prefer Sara but I quite like Jo.

It depends what you like really. If you like a mother who prefers talking about food and children then you'll love Sara's show. If you want less banter, more music and talk about the latest bands you'll love Jo's show. I quite like both so it's disappointing Sara is going elsewhere but I have missed Jo from the schedules.

You sound a bit like Jo yourself there, telling people what they will and won't like...

    • 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
