    • That's one of the most pathetic things I've seen in a long time. Moyles hasn't been with the BBC for close on 15 years now, he's with Global. The BBC can't force Global to do anything to him. It was in the papers in 2002, it's been and gone. Charlotte actually went on Chris' show a couple of times in the following years. I think 2005 when she did 'Crazy Chick' etc. If she was so miffed she wouldn't have gone near, even back then. GB news needs to be taken off the air, or burnt to the ground.
    • I think with the way it's transpiring it looks as though it will be Sara, but they can't force her if she wants to stay on drive. Getting up at 4am every morning is a proper grind, and she did a good few years of that for Radio 1 in the early 00's. If so, maybe Trevor Nelson to drive which wouldn't be such a huge change for him. And afternoons, Mark & Lard to come back and revive the biggest show? I can dream. Probably will give Rylan the slot or someone.
    • Who would be everyones ideal cover be   Dean McCullough - Mylo & Rosie Greg James - Matt & Mollie RMC - Nat/Vicky Matt & Mollie - Matt Cover: Lauren Layfield, Mollie Cover: Jeremaiah Asaimah, If both of them are of I would have James Cusack Cover Going Home - I would have Emil on with Katie on Weds & Thurs and If Jamie is ever off on Tuesdays, If Katie & Jamie are both off I would have Sam & Danni Cover Jack Saunders - Sian Eleri Sian Eleri - Tara Kumar  Power Down Playlists - Casskidd   James Cusack - Joel Mitchell/Conor Knight Nat/Vicky - Minah Shannon/ Charley Marlowe/ Lauren Redfern Sam/Danni - Sam Cover: Emil Franchi, Danni Cover: Lauren Layfield          
    • Shanequa's on Life Hacks as normal...
    • Highly doubt it I would expect to see Sara get it and someone else drive, now Trevor could do drive and someone new on afternoons that is feasable.  Saying things like that on air is just them playing up to the mics, if there was a serious convo to have they would not say on air I need to talk off air, plus if he "was/is" the new host, he will be under an NDA until the official press release and publicity just as Scott was (Scott's negoitations for breakfast took place back in the Summer of 2024, and when he covered Zoe for ten weeks in Summer he knew then he had the gig. They will all be bound by NDAs and contractual things that are just not worth loosing a gig for to talk about, even confidentially with collegues. Even though I work in ILR, I can kind of relate to this. I already know plans to move me aroud on the schedule coming up but I am not allowed to talk about it to any other presenters because they are partly involved in the changes, and the station want to do a press release aroud it, so yes I have had the conversation about moving with my boss weeks ago, heard the proposal, agreed to the change then been told not to talk about it, so these things even happen at a local level.  When I said I agreed to the change, it was an offer I could not refuse, but had it been and I dissagreed they may have either dropped me completely, or told me tough this is happening, or found someone else to fill where I was being placed and me get the worse of the two. So it is kind of in your interest to say yes.  Of course on their level their agents do all the negoiating for them, not sure if they are even at the meetings or if it is all done afterwards with back and forward emails and all.  A previous Community station I worked at, the PD would make changes quite a bit, when he did he would talk to all involved first, make sure they could do what he required of them, then he would make you sign an NDA until he formally told the rest of the station about the changes and released it on social media and the website as a news story. Again if you could not do what was being asked, he used to simply drop you and find someone else, which is what happened to me ultimately. 
    • Could it be Trevor? I was just listening to Greg James Breakfast podcast from Friday, and as they were wrapping up Trevor was passing and popped in to say hello. He said to Greg "I need to talk to you - off air".
