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??

I was put off by listening to the Moyles show today. I don't particularly want to listen again to something I can't see.

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).

Ooh dear, speed changing and audio drops. Well, 6 weeks to fix all of this. Getting the A/V sync must be tricky enough though.

why the problems this time round though

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.

Stutter, stutter, stutter....I'm not complaining though, we wouldn't have this otherwise and its only 2 days into 6 weeks!

I cannot watch it at all for some reason. The screen with the R1 Logo, and the texts on the side all loads up, and when a song is played the name comes up but I am getting only a blank screen for the studio

Are the BBC restricting this to the UK only unlike the previous times?

    • Richie Anderson in for Rylan tomorrow.
    • Mylo and Rosie said at the end of their show today that they would also be on Early Breakfast on Thursday 24th July (even though the schedule still says Dean)
    • James is in for Dean from Monday 11th to Thursday 14th August. Dean is in for Greg from Monday 11th to Friday 15th August. Jaguar is in for Sarah on Friday 15th August.
    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • 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
