NONE until the twelfth day before xmas !

R1 shouldn't lower it's self to the commercial crap stations !

I think R1 actually did stuff v. late last year, as I recall.

That said, it's beginning to be Xmas choon overload this year now, with the radio and all the shops beginning to feel very harassing.

Much be really annoying being a sales assistant.

Delta Machine, Depeche Mode - buy NOW !!

Forget the twelfth day before xmas, just end it at "NONE"

The only 2 I have any time for are Don't Let The Bells End (Darkness) because I find it quite funny, and Merry Christmas Everybody (Noel Gallagher version only) because I think he covers ir pretty well. I hate having to listen to any of the others.

Not impressed with censorship

If it's what people want to hear Alan and judging by the 10 minute takeover some people do, then why shouldn't R1 play any?

its way to early, stations playing xmas songs in october, november & early december, if the songs are SO good why aren't they played all year 99% of the so called xmas songs have nothing to do with xmas anyway, its just pap to get people to spend there money.

anyway the best xmas song is;

xmas has become a joke now & all people care about is what gifts they receive, for little children its different, but people seem to have forgotten what xmas about !

im not religious at all, but i know what xmas is about & its nothing to do with trees & gifts.

The Power Of Love - Frankie Goes To Hollywood is by far the best xmas song, if you watch the video & just listen to the words, watch & learn every singer/band that is wanting to do a xmas song.

    • He's alive and doing Calgon promotion! Those five weeks off have to pay somehow 😂
    • Annie did the Friday night dance show as well so I think that made her more prominent. She's an excellent presenter at new music and I think Jack is the perfect successor for this show. Clara was always in the 'good' category for me. She's been around since I started listening to R1 so feels a bit weird she's leaving. Think it's only Greg, Matt, Danny Howard and Pete Tong left now!
    • See I don’t agree…I think the three way dynamic is not really working. Vick & Katie are really great together and I enjoy Vick & Jamie together. It’s something between Katie & Jamie that’s not gelling for me. However it’s early days and they are still much better than some other combos. Plus Matt & Jamie were radio comedy gold for me so I don’t think Jamie’s the problem. Just maybe didn’t need to be a three. 
    • HAppy birthday Scott mills I hope u like the photo sent to you and I hope u recived my massive birthday CARD as I sent it to BBC RADIO 2 broadcasting house on special recorded delivery for you as let me if u have got it as I wrote a very large letter to you inside the card and sent a photo inside the card as well your biggest fan Yolanda xxxx LOVE 💖 YOU MILLIONS SCOTT  MILLS 
    • It's rather sad that Pink News is even running this - they should know better.
    • I was invested in the show when it was Vick and Jordan / Katie - now I don't pay attention and might leave the station when Jordan starts on Capital.  What I do hear is a mix of formulaic and awful.   It's strange how one person leaving a station can affect your outlook on the whole station.
    • Happy birthday Scott! Hurry up and get back on the airwaves 😊
    • Think it just depends on his commitments but agree he's a good listen. 
    • I liked her last show, but I don’t feel it had the same impact as Annie’s show. Also, I feel her tenure was quite short to be honest, so don’t understand what the sentiments are all about. I mean Annie did this show for 6 years and Zane Lowe for 12, compared to Clara’s 3 years. Looking forward to Jack taking over from her - I think he has a lot of influence from Zane Lowe and we need that energy in 6pm slot.
    • I wonder if R1 will do a big event type thing on the week that Jordan starts on Capital? It will minimise the number of people turning over I’d guess 
    • Hard to believe that all the new shows from September 2021 are now pretty much over, aside from RMC on the live lounge show, and even then, they seemed to change things up after 18 months or so. It feels like yesterday since 6th September 2021 when all those new shows began!  
    • I've never listened to Rylan before this week but have found him to be excellent.  He should be Scott's main cover going forwards
    • Always thought Arielle would get this show. She's the most natural presenter to Annie Mac. Maybe it was something to do with her Dj career and residencies in Ibiza
    • Sad that she said she felt different to others at Radio 1 having come from 1Xtra. Lovely how supportive Greg was through her career. 
    • To be honest she never filled Annie’s shoes in my eyes. It’s been a disappointing tenure having not been able to grow her show. It’s a stark contrast from her mid morning show where I preferred her to RMC.
