Hiss. You got there first!!

What's an "RT"??

Hopefully, this Surgery will be better than last night's, which was, for the first part - boring.

For the second part, very surface and lacking in depth.

How good a show would the Surgery have been had STRESS been the topic of the night, and proper ways of dealing with it!! Instead, you get a RIDICULOUS debate question:

"Do you have the right to be stressed?" This is just assinine. Of course people have the RIGHT to be stressed, just as much in this country as any other.

Stress, in the right quantity, can be a good thing, because it motivates us to get things done.

I think it's where people continually worry all day that stress becomes a problem.

Awful Surgery last night. Awful. 0/10.

Yeah, that's what it will be : Radio Times!!

I know what you mean, KTWWH. I had an impression of stress with the presenters last night. From texts not being read out properly, to the presenters seeming to snap at one another, it was quite annoying.

Also, I know the Show wasn't a proper surgery advice show last night, but the girl who 'phoned in with the £4,000 worth of debt was practically dismissed.

Unprofessional show. I was actually ashamed to be a listener last night.

Aled's bullying stuff (the TV show) will be going into all schools apparently... well done!! I think the Government may have decided this, or something like that. Heard this early this morning.

I think it's an excellent idea. The more it gets put out there, the more people they will help!!

The bullying stuff is now on iPlayer. I can't get the link to copy across to this Site though. Check out Aled's twitter for the information: www.twitter.com/ahj

I think you would find someone just getting out of bed in the morning patronising. :hahaha: Try the "ignore" option, then you won't have to read anything else!!

Mind you... then you'd have less to be upset about.

You must follow me on twitter: you'd be thrilled by the level of intelligence and fascinating tweets.

Of course not - I've just regularly found you patronising to others since reading your posts. By ignoring you, I would be being particularly narrow minded.

Mind you... then you'd have less to be upset about.

I'm not overly saddened by you being generally annoying.

I doubt it.

    • 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.
