I heard them for the 1st time this morning too, not good. Next it will be Get up with the BBC's Moyles, Get Home with the BBC's Mills, And stay up with the BBC's Grimshaw. Then it will be changed to Get up with the BBC, Get Home with the BBC, And stay up with the BBC.

don't see why everyone's complaining.

Every other station has emphasis on the BBC - even local radio put emphasis on the BBC. Eg, BBC Newcastle is not just called Radio Newcastle any more.

It's still BBC Radio Norfolk here. They're not taking away the radio from our name ;)

BBC Radio Devon here. Anyway, I'm used to the new V/O now. Holly started in October, so she'll have to go soon

She'll go next year wont she? They alternate between changing the male and female v/o each year so they are on for 2 years. When she does change, I would like Katie off of the INMWT voice overs.

So would I. When she was doing V/O's for nick grimshaw's show, announcing a bed by saying 'Nick Grimshaw, BBC Radio 1', that was great. Have you heard Grimmy's male V/O? http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00m42fp/Nick_Grimshaw_20_08_2009/

Listen from about 11:02

Music4 at their best here! Big Weekend Imaging http://www.music4.com/musicservices/catalogue/611/bbc-radio-1/big-weekend-themes.html

Wonder what the new newsbeat jingles will sound like next year? A remix of the 2002 ones would be nice. I'm getting a bit bored of the current ones. Has anyone got a clean 2002 intro? If you have, can you pleas post it on the site thanks

The thing is with the Newsbeat and 1tros, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? I can understand wanting to keep them fresh, but there's still live in the highly recognisable Newsbeat theme, and the 1tros do a good job of integrating the Radio 1 logo in to the station sounds. I like the 1tro montages, and wonder if actually montages could be used as a soundtrack to advertisements maybe on BBC Three of the station: and they're updated each month to reflect what the station plays.

Though I just had a HORRIFIC thought: they'll add 3 more notes to the logo so it's BBC Radio 1. It wouldn't surprise me, sadly.

However, I suppose it may be time to try something a bit more 'new' with the imaging - it's not really evolved in recent time.

As I said, they will probably add something 'new' or remove them/rest them.

The Station imaging is fine

Really?! Are you still listening to the old radio 1?

Have you heard their new FX's, it's getting worse and worse!

http://www.wisebuddah.com/?p=page&id=326&refer=

It's just a collection of noise!

Thats exactly what they are. FX are noises made into other noises and sounds.

Radio 1 don't just use X-Gen, they also use there custom package from Noise Fusion. There custom package is the main package you hear, although its being phased out from listening to there new awful imaging.

Is it bad that I heard Hayley on the Reading/Leeds trail and thought "the new Holly from Maidstone?!?!? :O"

Yeah she's been doing quite a lot of work this summer.

My second thought, instead of considering if the voice would be as annoying as Holly from Maidstone, was that the people I know by the name of Hayley have been attractive. Highly relevant, I know.

Is Hayles gonna be the new female V/O? I've not heard her before. She sounds great! Is it me, or are Radio 1 just picking out random people for V/O's

They do that. I just heard that, and she sounds talented

hayley sorry

    • 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.
    • There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1.
