Yeah really wouldn't surprise me at all! Heard a bit of her lie in this morning and it's so obviously taped it's untrue. If you have to record a show every week, you shouldn't be doing that show!

Has she said its pre-recorded? They have to do that now (its a BBC rule i think).

And yeah i agree with you. If you have one show to do a week, you shouldent pre-record it unless there are extreme circumstances why. I'm sure there are several people that would happily do a shift.

I have no idea, cannot stand to listen to her for long. But she records it on a Wednesday according to Jono.

Yeah they just call them back on the Wednesday, notice she doesn't read out the text number?

*shrugs* - I never listened.

I've just been looking at Vernons bio:

Your Saturday morning show and your Sunday Lie-In are presented by Vernon every week from 10am-1pm.

Is this old i take it?

Nothing gets past you.

No sarcasm needed sir! I had never heard Vernon on a sunday before and therefore wondered if he was starting it in a few weeks or something stupid like that......

:P

Maybe she just wants to avoid comic relief this year? She never seemed to like discussing winning fame academy 4 years ago!

she doesn't like being called a celebrity that's why, she deserved to win though Edith has a great voice (i even have the mp3's of Edith singing on my mobile :oops:).

I think what constitutes a celebrity is confusing.

She has the salary and invites and profile of a minor celebrity...her life isnt exactly mundane and average!

If she doesnt want that lifestyle she doesnt have to be a daytime radio presenter!

she has said that its just a normal job to her & she does all the day to day things everyone else does, she hasn't done anything to promote herself as a celeb all she has done is help out with charity's & awareness of illness & environment.

I would agree that Edith is a minor celebrity- one if the things I like about Coxy is that at least she acknowledges the fact! I guess this comes down to "what constitutes a celebrity"- today it seems to be associated with talentless reality tv stars etc, whereas it should really be someone who is celebrated and recognised for their achievements, whatever that may be. Although I'm not Edith's biggest fan, haolding on to the afternoon show on Radio 1 for as long as she has is ceratinly an achievement, and is aso a high-profile job.

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
