Interesting changes. I agree that JK and Joel haven't really worked on Radio 1. I thought they would, because I was a big fan when they were on commercial radio, but sadly there hasn't been a real chance for them to have a real go at a decent slot on daytimes. I agree they will move to Capital eventually, but they have their TV work in the interim.
I love the idea of putting Greg James in on earlies. He sounds quite like Wes, but as someone who works in student radio, it gives hope that Radio 1 are actually listening and the fact he can just be plucked out and given a daytime slot gives hope! However, bosses know that he isn't strong enough to hold an audience between 6 and 7 for Chris, so they have moved Chris earlier, which is obviously great news for everyone. 17 and a half hours of Moyles a week!
Dance Anthems being phased out is a shame, Nihal is sh*t and Fearne and Reggie little better. But then Radio 1 has always been awful at the weekends anyway.
