I don't mind Grimmy. I think he's the right choice from who they have.

My gripe is that they didn't give Chris the ten years I felt he deserved after all he's done for the station, they took the show off air when it still had plenty of life in it, and because they've basically said I'm too old and not welcome.

That is one sure fire way to polarise your audience from the off. Even if I was planning to listen to Grimmy in the mornings I certainly wouldn't now!

That's a really bad idea. Even if you ignore who Justin Bieber is, he's a terrible guest. He was a complete tool to Dave, and even to Fearnage.

Unless he's reinvented himself as an actual human being, this could be a trainwreck. I may tune in!

See again, too anti-Grimmy for my liking. This is having the opposite effect of starting to make me feel sorry for him.

His last interview I saw was on Capital breakfast. I hadn't heard them before, thought i'd give them a fair chance. It was god awful. It was very corporate and lacked of any personality - just 2 people who had not much in common sitting in a room interviewing something they clearly didn't care about, trying to sound like they're having a great time. Somehow I feel like that's what the R1 breakfast show will become.

I agree - I want to be pro Moyles but that doesn't mean I have to start slagging off Grimshaw before I even know whether he is shit or not. So I like the one MadTheEddos did!

I know why, Chris wears Superdry all the time, I'm sure they must send him tons of free stuff. They've tweeted about him before!

They followed me too for changing my Twitter pic to one of me wearing Superdry, I'm such a whore!

So Grimshaw is going from obscure indy music enthusiast to Bieber lover in the space of a week? Not false at all.

Oooh, a nice one to tweet by the way chrysostom, is https://twitter.com/RichOliver - he's not got many followers (so he'd probably see your tweet) but as you can imagine has a massive connection to the show! :)

I think that's a bit unfair, given how long he's been big mates with Harry Styles.

I never thought I'd say this, but even 1 Direction aren't as saccharin-sweet-poppy as Justin Bieber. Really really not a good start!

Signs of a false broadcaster (same as the Fearne, Greg, Matt Edmondson crowd). At least Chris stuck to his guns and ranted about something he didn't like/appreciate (and doing it honestly rather than contraversially). I'm looking forward to Grimmy's show even more now because it sounds like it maybe a huge train crash. Shame Matt Fincham will be associated to it.

Grimmy and the other names you mentioned are robots programmed by Ben Cooper. The days of a Radio 1 DJ with his/her own voice are over.
