Wont be Zane, otherwise he'll be on from 4-9pm... I'm thinking Huw orrrr Sara, or they might bring in Dev up the ranks...

Zane 4-9...I could cope with that. I would love him to cover a normal show just once to see what he does with the playlist. I bet he would chuck it out the window. But nah never gonna happen or he would be ill the rest of the week! Lets face it he's still beating Scott in the time off stakes.

Huw or Chappers would be good :)

Oh I do agree, I would love to see Zane try and do Ediths slot or something, doing all her features and playing the music. I couldnt imagine anything more funny.

Could you imagine him doing OWO? He'd be singing along with it like he used to do.

On a similar note I'd love for Scott to cover for Zane if it snowed or something and noone else could get in. Car crash radio!

Haha Zane "NOW ITS TIME FOR A QUIZ"

Awww Scott "This is the... hottest record in the world, someone called erm..."

They should do it for charity, all swap round, have Moyles and Kutski swap...

Yeah I agree! Would be a great laugh, I bet loads of people would tune in as well to hear how it goes. Moyles Team to cover for Grimmy? Would be funny.

Yeah they should all be given the complete opposite of what they are about to do. Honestly it would be just a day of terrible radio, but terrible in an amazingly funny way.

Definately, I'd listen all day to that format. Westwood in for Jo in the Live Lounge? Class.

Indeed. R1 have tried this format in the past, albeit on a small scale, I seem to remember when Westwood filled in for the Sunday Surgery, was a laugh.

The thought of hearing Fearne Cotton every day fills me with dread, somewhat. She was a bit o' alright in the days when she was on Saturday morning TV, but I don't like her shows.

Thank god Nihal is going, I had the misfortune to tune into his show once at work, and it was just painful to listen to. He kept banging on about Twitter every 10 seconds so much so that you would have thought that he owned the site or something and wanted to get free ads in.

Yeah I remember listening to it somewhere it was rule the world and when Gary sung 'don't fade away' Westwood said 'Im fading.'

Im not a Westwood fan but when he's taken out of his comfort zone and put into Scotts I dont mind him. Even if it is his show or playlist :confused:

    • 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!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
    • There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine. 
    • It's a big 'No' from me (Israel-Palestine). No further comments.
    • A joke about pirates: ‘but we’re not jumping ship, like someone else’
