I'm not really liking the Hoff...

I think it's ok for him to go on (Of course!) but at the moment it seems to be a bit too much about The Hoff. Reminds me of the Barry Island Texter. Yeah, he's kinda funny but not that funny, right? I hope someone will agree with me :)

The Hoff is okay, he's only around every now and again and it's all to promote the new TV show that they will be doing. Which can only be good.

The Barry Island texter is quite funny too I think, and ima sure that plenty of people will agree with me too! It's good in small doses which is what Scott does with those things.

I don't mind his mentions on Scott's show, but I don't like seeing or hearing him on TV or other radio shows. I think it's just Scott that makes it funny.

My Mum doesn't like him, though; she gets annoyed everytime someone mentions him.

I guess it's because I haven't heard much of him because I'm young that I don't mind the whole 'The Hoff' thing. :)

I think Jono is right: in small does, he's great. I want to hear more stuff about R1 however. It's the same old story - once the presenters become obsessed with TV stuff, they become just a little boring, then bore the listeners as well. I predict Scott eventually winds up in America. And, at the current rate he's going, this may not be a bad thing.

Vernon Kay is one of the worst for boring people with the TV stuff. Every time he has a new show, or whatever, you get loads of boring plugs about it. Make up your mind: either you're pro R1 or pro TV. We don't always necessarily need to hear about both in the one show.

Personally, I've always found the Hoff just a little creepy for some reason - a bit slimey. Sorry!! I don't what it is, but, there's just a little something unnerving there.

    • I think they should just bring that back as was. It's been nearly 20 years, so do it with a whole bunch of new DJ's. 
    • I think this year has taught us we know nothing 🙂 Nobody would ever have credibly predicted Jordan leaving and all the changes that followed.   I have another interest outside radio and it is exactly the same - the stuff you never expect to happen is exactly what does.
    • Yeah they make the weekend shifts go so much quicker. Like today, the piece about Matt falling asleep in the cafe was funny, it's clear to see why they're going to weekdays. It could well be they were thinking of Danny for it and like you say have decided against that, or like I said at the start it's James Cusack and the slow down on the announcement is him getting out of his contract. Remember he works for radio 1's main rivals. I think it's quite telling that he's doing more r1 cover than usual, tomorrow and then a further 3 weekend shows in a row
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky between the 28th-30th May.
    • I suspect they’re gonna tie the announcement into something, or they’ve changed plans. I know we’ve said it as a joke but I wonder if Aled was planning on giving it to someone like Danny Beard, but he’s decided against that after the last few weeks. Seems clear to me, though, that if Jordan hadn’t left, then Katie would’ve taken Dean and Vicky’s slot and Matt and Mollie would’ve stayed on weekends, which probably explains why they haven’t picked a replacement yet. If it was going to be the obvious choice, I.e. James Cusack, surely they would’ve announced it by now..?
    • Yep think they mentioned that this is their penultimate weekend of shows but then they will also be on air during Big Weekend and they mentioned they'll be doing 'Party Anthems' on stage during Big Weekend which sounds intriguing. Will miss Matt & Mollie on weekends - they in particular have made that Friday afternoon slot their own - but they'll be great on weekdays. Do wonder if 'Summer on Radio 1' is just a placeholder name until they decide on who will cover the interim. While it's obviously not the case it does feel like they've forgotten there's that weekend afternoon slot to fill given no permenant presenter has been announced for it yet.
    • Zoe Ball is back on the breakfast show on Monday.
    • Just listening to matt and mollie at work and heard them say it's their second to last show on weekends
    • And Arielle mentioned in her Instagram post that her final early breakfast show is the 27th of June - the Thursday before Glastonbury 
    • When Matt covered breakfast on 22nd April, he said their new show was starting in 10 weeks, so that’d be the 1st July.
    • Would love for it to be like the Summer Friday Thing that me and @DC were remisincing about recently. Lots of events going on that could easily form part of it.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/summer/cardiff/thursday/1.shtml
    • I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury
    • I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.
    • Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then? 
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.
