As for the "interesting" thing I'd take a guess that on the radio 1 website when a song is playing you see the band info but on the actual stream the cameras continued to broadcast hence he said they now put up a "we'll be right back" card on the stream as they know what people are doing but don't mind it so much kind of way.

I think it's a great trial and I hope they do it again somewhen. I guess they are working out the technical stuff and trying to figure out if it would affect the show in anyway, i.e. them doing more visual stuff.
That's exactly it. Most of the time it's kind of dull, as Chris goes out for a fag and leaves Aled or Rachel pressing buttons, but sometimes the team will stay and dance along or sing along to a record, which is nice.
I hope they continue to do video. I think the team were a bit self-conscious during the original one-day trial, but seem to have relaxed a fair bit this time around.
I'm guessing if they carry on, they'll forget the cameras are there. There are no cameramen wibbling around the studio, and most of the cameras are fixed. so they aren't terribly intrusive.
Fingers crossed, I'll have today's show up in a bit.
