Unlike last time so far there is no video best bits & no mention at all of Chris being in video on his page or the homepage :confused:

Well, there's a big image and link during the show to the console. It's not so much important having lots of stuff about it when the console isn't live.

Yes but last time as I said they were advertising some highlight clips and he fact that the show is in video every morning

EDIT: when is Zane going to be in video??

Personally, I'd like for Zane's show, for the Now Playing module to be on the right, with Studio Cam on the time. For one, background stuff is mildly interesting, but also to see him mixing (nice decks angle!) and playing clips etc. Though it's nice to see some more interesting camera angles.

Also, as Zane plays a bit of a record, then starts talking again, then plays more, it feels weird it either being on Now Playing when you hear him or constantly cutting back and forth between them.

Oh, and on the Now Playing thing, it'd be interesting to see if the system could also load up a relevant image/link for promos such as for Moyles or the endless Switch ones.

The problem with the Show Info thing is that it's not something that we particularly need to see all the time: maybe that could be more of a ticker module, like the BBC News/Weather can be loaded up as (something that was seen in the 5live usage, or if people played with the debug console when it was up).

I watched about ten minutes of Moyles this morning and became bored extremely quickly. It was really off-putting and added nothing.

Moreover, the bit I watched was the team talking about Matt Fincham singing to himself in the office, which had Aled doing hand movements and the team picking up on it. I listened back to the show on the iPlayer and that bit SOUNDED so much better than it actually looked. And either Dom is no good with cameras, or he's just generally the most awkward person I may have ever seen.

I'm not going to be getting up to watch this again. Shock horror, the Chris Moyles RADIO show is a lot better when you LISTEN to it, so I'm just going to completely ignore the visual element and stick to using the Listen Again feature.

I just think it'll be more appreciated during the day. It certainly takes something away from Moyles' show. I think it might add to Mills' a bit because he does a lot of video stuff. But I'm not that keen on it.

    • Annie did the Friday night dance show as well so I think that made her more prominent. She's an excellent presenter at new music and I think Jack is the perfect successor for this show. Clara was always in the 'good' category for me. She's been around since I started listening to R1 so feels a bit weird she's leaving. Think it's only Greg, Matt, Danny Howard and Pete Tong left now!
    • See I don’t agree…I think the three way dynamic is not really working. Vick & Katie are really great together and I enjoy Vick & Jamie together. It’s something between Katie & Jamie that’s not gelling for me. However it’s early days and they are still much better than some other combos. Plus Matt & Jamie were radio comedy gold for me so I don’t think Jamie’s the problem. Just maybe didn’t need to be a three. 
    • HAppy birthday Scott mills I hope u like the photo sent to you and I hope u recived my massive birthday CARD as I sent it to BBC RADIO 2 broadcasting house on special recorded delivery for you as let me if u have got it as I wrote a very large letter to you inside the card and sent a photo inside the card as well your biggest fan Yolanda xxxx LOVE 💖 YOU MILLIONS SCOTT  MILLS 
    • It's rather sad that Pink News is even running this - they should know better.
    • I was invested in the show when it was Vick and Jordan / Katie - now I don't pay attention and might leave the station when Jordan starts on Capital.  What I do hear is a mix of formulaic and awful.   It's strange how one person leaving a station can affect your outlook on the whole station.
    • Happy birthday Scott! Hurry up and get back on the airwaves 😊
    • Think it just depends on his commitments but agree he's a good listen. 
    • I liked her last show, but I don’t feel it had the same impact as Annie’s show. Also, I feel her tenure was quite short to be honest, so don’t understand what the sentiments are all about. I mean Annie did this show for 6 years and Zane Lowe for 12, compared to Clara’s 3 years. Looking forward to Jack taking over from her - I think he has a lot of influence from Zane Lowe and we need that energy in 6pm slot.
    • I wonder if R1 will do a big event type thing on the week that Jordan starts on Capital? It will minimise the number of people turning over I’d guess 
    • Hard to believe that all the new shows from September 2021 are now pretty much over, aside from RMC on the live lounge show, and even then, they seemed to change things up after 18 months or so. It feels like yesterday since 6th September 2021 when all those new shows began!  
    • I've never listened to Rylan before this week but have found him to be excellent.  He should be Scott's main cover going forwards
    • Always thought Arielle would get this show. She's the most natural presenter to Annie Mac. Maybe it was something to do with her Dj career and residencies in Ibiza
    • Sad that she said she felt different to others at Radio 1 having come from 1Xtra. Lovely how supportive Greg was through her career. 
    • To be honest she never filled Annie’s shoes in my eyes. It’s been a disappointing tenure having not been able to grow her show. It’s a stark contrast from her mid morning show where I preferred her to RMC.
    • Yesterday when Katie was off was nearly unlistenable. Shows how vital she is in the show dynamic.
