Annie Mac will be covering Sara's shows during her maternity leave. The first of these will be 23rd & 24th February 2008.

Sara will return to R1 in September. :-)

Remember to give us a shout out.

My guess is going to be Vernon Kay and Nihal doing alternate weeks.

Vernon won't commit to a five day a week show for that length of time, surely? Even every other week, although I'd be very happy if he did. What about Dick and Dom? That might be ok - although I much preferred JK and Joel, I miss them on early breakfast. I wouldn't mind Nihal, his weekend shows have got a lot better since he relaxed into it all a bit more.

Not keen on Dick and Dom or JK and Joel.

Fearne and Reggie possibly? Possibly Kelly Osbourne?

They decided they had had enough of early breakfast, and that they deserved Edith's slot (or possibly Scott's, I can't remember). BBC bosses didn't agree, so a parting of the ways occurred.

In other wirds, they got greedy and thought they were better than they were.

Ithink it's Radio 1's loss. They were very good.

I wasnt really to keen on them to be honest, i listened somtimes and thought they sounded very alike, so I got confused as to who was speaking... made listening quite hard for me!... that might just be me though!

I sat opposite Annie Mac on the tube on Saturday. Her mum does indeed look like a white-haired Tina Turner :)

Uncsbobby, Sara has a permanent slot on Saturday and Sunday 1pm until 4 pm. She also once did chris Moyles' job, before he took over. You should listen more often!! It's great. Nihal's really good at the weekend too: 0700 - 1000 hours. :-)

Nihal is abysmal. As is Sara Cox. Don't waste your time, 'unclesirbobby'.

And you have the audacity to suggest that I tend to present my opinions as though they are facts.

I have heard Nihals slot. He good. I think I have heard sara on a sunday once. Shes a great dj. I am surprised I haven't heard her more because my favorite show of the week is the chart show(Fearne is my favorite dj even above chris).

I do remember that she had chris's slot on a morning. She even ocxcasionally turned up to do the show. :D
