Also, very geeky - but I'd like the beds. Don't know why.

Yeah they would be good, as well as the one Scott used to use at the beginning of the show. Zane's brass-type one, he always uses about 20mins into his show, would also be awesome :D

A lot to ask haha

If you were a DJ and you could host one persons show which would it be and why?

I'd probably do the Chart Show because my counting backwards skills are really quite advanced. I'd challenge anyone in a counting backwards from 40 - 1 competition.

Otherwise I'd do one where nobody is listening...I'm not keen on being a DJ myself. And no, I won't be drawn into specifics about whose shows nobody is listening to!

Really? I nicked the feature recently for a quiz night I was doing and used 5 clips - they took me around 3-5 minutes each to find off the iPlayer, bleep out a suitable word and save! Had everyone laughing too, so I can't have done that bad! I know you have to spend slightly longer than that for broadcast, but even so. :)

The thing with BBTV is that it gets dull if you keep doing the same words. If it's just words beginning with F or SH every week I think it loses its fun. So it's a constant hunt for more original and imaginitive words and they need to be in a humorous context.

That's why it takes the time. Blimey - I'm actually intellectualising about making things sound a bit smutty!

I love you?

(Thats a question)

You just think you do

Since when were mixes (out of news etc.) pre done?

What times do the team arrive in at before a show?

For ages actually. Gives Scott a chance to nip outside for a bit of fresh air. ;)

I get in at about 9:30am. Beccy soon afterwards. Scott turns up about 1:30pm. Chappers is generally here by 3:29pm.

I also imagine pressing all those buttons is beyond Scott ;)

Wow, I just thought Beccy got in at before 10 during Becky Cam to make it look as though she works. I commend you!

Fresh air? I wouldn't call it that!

Love that, Chappers in just in time to do the news! ;)

can you get someone else to get Chappers back for Becky please, i really want him to be got back at :D

I do have a cunning plan actually. :*

has barack obama been in touch yet? :D

and the fake scott on twitter has 24000 followers. has any team member thought of officially tweeting?

Strangely Bazza's not called yet. Only a matter of time though.

I think Scott is loving the fact that he's on Twitter but doesn't actually have to do anything! We really must get our tweeting arses in gear though.

Do you prefer to be called The One That Doesn't Speak or The One Who Doesn't Speak? :)

Thanks!

I really don't mind. I'm not sure which one is more gramatically correct. Although grammar off of proper speaking has bothered us before!

Oooooohhhhhh!!!! I hope it's a good one that totally fools him!

Ima sure he is, anything for an easy life! You should get twitter TOTDS, then you can 'speak' in the show!

Yes one step at a time. I'm thinking about joining some new site called Friends Reunited or something? I've heard it's the in thing. :oops:

Right, time for a cuppa and an old episode of Spooks.

Til tomorrow.

Yeah it was, about 10 years ago :giggle:

Night night!

Why don't we get a podcast when greg fills in for scott? I think we had one once but thats about it...

Also have you heard of the aussie drivetime duo Hamish and Andy? I've been listening to their podcasts for over a year now the show is hilarious as well, you should do a joint show when you go and do sydney-oke ;)

    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
    • Nat and Vicky are being sent to Ibiza this year. They’ll be live on Friday 1st August from 1-4pm.     
    • Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.
