Moyles' spoke this morning about his new goal is to get John Barrowman 'Through The Rain' into the UK charts.

From nowhere it now stands at number 16 in the Itunes chart which means if it stays there or higher over the week it would atleast make the 'Big Top 40' chart.

They've tried this in the past and failed quite badly, perhaps this time will be differant.

I hate to sound like a grump in relation to this, but Moyles and the team (as much as I love the show) please stop feeding John Barrowman's attention seeking, in your face ego.

I acknowledge that he isn't everyones taste, and some people totally LOVE him. But I wouldn't him if every time he had something to promote he wouldn't be EVERYWHERE! People do promotional work, but its never as noticeable as him.

Barrowman clearly has nothing to do since Torchwood is finished so the breakfast shown is just helping him out to keep him busy. And I don't know about you, but I found it funny at the beginning but now its starting to grate on me. :|

</rant> :P

I shall stop now :P

If it continues or stays in the top 10 then 'The Big Top 40' show has to play it. If it goes below top 10 then they can skip over it.

But, because its commercial radio it will be interesting to see what they say on-air about it, as they ain't gonna' say it was Moyles that did it.

So, just to clarify, if the song is in the iTunes top 10 at 6pm on Sunday, then it will DEFINITELY be played on the Big Top 40 Show. It may still be in the lower bit of the chart.

Yes, although they will probably edit the song down to 1min 30secs.

The song is now at number 10 on the ITunes chart again.

Time for another good push tomorrow morning, then get Vernon to push it on saturday or something.

    • I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right! 
    • Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!
    • Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.
    • If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.
    • The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!
    • What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.
    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
