Here's something to throw out there. My friend Katrina cannot watch TV if there is an element of suspense to it. She has Wikipediaed all of Glee because she doesn't like watching something she doesn't know what will happen. She has to research soaps and movies too. Is that normal? She says the X Factor results show is a nightmare. Is it just her who doesn't like suprises and twists. Same in real life. You have to tell her she's having a party.

it's not normal but its not just her. my sister does it and taunts me by saying she knows what happens every time something is on.

Yeah. It's like the X Factor finals might be a live show but she hates the idea of Dermot doing the results live with however many minutes of suspense he adds in so she records it.

<o></o>

And once Joe had been announced as a winner either online or somewhere else and she’s found that out she then she'll watch the whole programme.

Oh it is normal, I do the same. I record the show and the result show then I watch the last few minutes of the result show first so I know the result and then watch the rest of the programme. I also read the last chapter of a book first, just so I know how it all turns out. If there is something sad to watch then I watch it in installments so as not to get too upset. So in Nikki's world it's perfectly acceptable.

Well I don't think I've done that before. She can't watch any of Eastenders because she doesn't know who killed Archie either.

I'll never forget the X Factor version of this. Thank goodness they went from doing live group efforts to some sort of recorded attempt.

I still have nightmares about that!.

It made Jedward look good, ironically.

Hmmm at Greg. So much for making the unmissable unmissable or whatever the iPlayer slogan is.

Beccy tweeted earlier Jeremy Kyle's guests were getting weirder. I wondered whether she was skiving or on holiday.

A new Rihanna record? I stopped caring when they stopped getting good! :(

That was you? 'Nuff said.

I hope there's not another Rob in Derby who would send a message like it. I didn't put it so graphically!

Can someone clip it for me pleeeeease?

What do you think of the Diamonds, Rob in Derby?

To be fair, in my text I didn't say she would get it. Not saying she wouldn't...

    • Richie Anderson in for Rylan tomorrow.
    • Mylo and Rosie said at the end of their show today that they would also be on Early Breakfast on Thursday 24th July (even though the schedule still says Dean)
    • James is in for Dean from Monday 11th to Thursday 14th August. Dean is in for Greg from Monday 11th to Friday 15th August. Jaguar is in for Sarah on Friday 15th August.
    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now
