Summer on Radio 1

[DarkAngelMJH]

She must have said she could do both other wise ima sure Sara would have fillled in for one day. No sympathy from me.

[Rik]

I've still never heard it and I feel I'm missing out on such awfulness.

[Jono]

She was promoting her clothes label quite a bit yesterday. I don't think OFCOM would approve.

[JonathanEx]

I love Popjustice. From twitter today: I think it might be impossible to listen to Fearne Cotton's show without finding oneself involuntarily shouting FUCKOFFFUCKOFFFUCKOFFFUCKOFF

I cant think for the life of me why they would say that being such a HUGE fan

I quite like her ROTW: something to do with a swimming pool, but in French. At least she got that right!! ;-)

Yes but didn't Edith and Grimmy champion it months ago?

[Rik]

I wonder what's wrong with the word 'piscine'?

[Jono]

You know I'm no fan but is it just me in thinking Moyles and Cotton are the most awkward series of handovers since Moyles took breakfast?

Annie Mac was a bit awkward but she understood the importance of the chemistry during the week stints. Fearne on the other hand just seems above Moyles and appears to have little interest in him.

The microphone seems to be down for most of it in her studio.

[Sam]

Does it really matter?

[Jono]

Does it really matter?

Yes. Hence the thread.

[Sam]

Yes. Hence the thread.

...

A few minutes of the DJs talking to each other, they are there to present a show not to talk between each other at the start/end of their shift.

Does it really matter if they don't get on? They aren't there to chat together - I think you're just nit picking at Fearne, cut her some slack.

[Jono]

Does it really matter if they don't get on? They aren't there to chat together.

Evidently.

I just think it would be better without them rather than forcing banter.

[matt_32510]

Doesn't really matter, lots of presenters don't get on with each other such as on 5 live with Alan Green and Mark Saggers.

I mean we all don't get on with people at work, some people are you are good mates with ,some are just complete idiots (at least at my work anyway and we seem to keep employing more and more idiots)

No, it's not just you. In fact, I said this exact thing in this exact thread, and you even replied to it...

[Jono]

Oops my bad, it was a separate thread originally. It was just I was listening back to Wednesday's Moyles show and the handover ended with "FINE, SHOVE IT UP YOUR ARSE THEN FEARNE" and thought "ouch".

[Robbie Keane]

I know Chris likes Fearne, but he knows enough about radio to know he's dying during those handovers. They're radio death.

Akin to the old Evans/Mayo handovers, but less a conflict of styles and more a conflict of good vs. shit.

[Jono]

Scott and Fearne's handovers are much more comfortable. I guess it's because he's on a lower level than Chris and is able to talk more about the sort of subjects she likes - such as the X Factor - this morning's subject.

[Electrobix]

...less a conflict of styles and more a conflict of good vs. shit.

So true!

[Hammer]

Doesn't really matter, lots of presenters don't get on with each other such as on 5 live with Alan Green and Mark Saggers.

Well in that case it ultimately did matter because the BBC got rid of Saggers and he's presenting on Talksport now.

[Robbie Keane]

Scott and Fearne's handovers are more comfortable because he's not perving on her and he's more dumbed down than Chris is. But they're also very short and not helped by Fearne adding "I've been doing something wicked so we haven't prepped today at all so we're gonna wing it."

Cue the sound of radios switching over to Heart in droves.

[Darkdamo]
