Come here Monday to Friday between 4pm and 7pm to talk about the show as it's happening, have a natter and leave your thoughts about the show.

Did anyone watch the documentary about Liz Smith's Summer Cruise last night on BBC Four? Bit upper class but an amazing show. She lives in a retirement home now and they were all sitting around and it reminded me of What Are The Old People On About :Dhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00lpjw6/b00lpjv7/Liz_Smiths_Summer_Cruise/

And it's good afternoon from me! Edith needs to work on her timings. Talk about late.

All of these Scott Mills wannabes don't really sound thirty five do they? I like the fact some of them have added me to Facebook now. They're desperate!

Is it just me who thinks Sara Cox talking to the potential Scotts is a disaster waiting to happen? I have no idea what will happen but I can just imagine her gossiping and putting them all right off :D

The crowds went mental for Kings of Leon judging by the video on the T In The Park minisite. Perhaps that's where Beccy has been hiding if she isn't in ;)

Oh you think you're special. I'm friends with Beccy Forte!

She only accepted because she was scared by you...

3OH!3? Anyone would think they have a single out today. From what I can gather this Don't Trust Me track is a re-release too :confused:

They're named after their local telephone area code apparently. I don't think 01263 would be such a hot name for a band if I was to name mine after the north Norfolk area code.

She's bonkers. I'm not surprised she tripped over - she sounds a dozy cow.

She sounds like the girl in the pub in Swindon who knocked a pint of drink all over me and the newspaper I was reading before the Big Weekend.

22 off of Lily Allen! I was just listening to it. LOVES it. Shame it's not F**k You though ;) It's a choon.

It seems to be a big old revolving door of guests today what with Shakira popping in and 3OH!3 up next.

I only assume Chops' reaction comes from the "good luck in heaven" clip. For some reason that made me chuckle.

    • I wouldn't be surprised if they do this around June time: 05.00 Ore Olukoga 07.00 Greg James 10.30 RMC 14.00 VKJ  That'll probably happen (for my guess) from the 17th June. And for weekends: 07:00 Sam & Danni 11:00 Gregor Davidson 15:00 Charlie Hedges Maybe Fridays aswell: 07:00 Greg James 11:00 Gregor Davidson 14:30 Jack Saunders
    • The Summer on Radio 1 thing makes me wonder whether they might be doing something similar to last year again where they have a temporary schedule over the summer before introducing changes in September - maybe the new host won’t start until after the summer?
    • There was talk on my Big Weekend group from the council about them waiting for Ticketmaster to send an email out. They said they've been waiting a week. Maybe they're waiting for train strike confirmation first. 
    • It’s on Saturday and Friday that week too. I guess this would make sense, as it gives them roughly 6 weeks off weekends until they start the new show?
    • Yeah he's on more than usual including this Sunday and then 3 more shows in May according to the above. Makes me think it's James for the weekend shows also
    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
