Jamie Theakston has been dumped from his Saturday morning slot after less than a year from taking over from Moyles. Its quite hard for him as he is up against Jonathan Ross. So will Scott Mills take over?

ah - "will" and "should" generate totally different questions.

I definatley think he should, but whether he will or not is anotehr matter. They'll robably put some garage or dance DJ on instead.

*Sigh*

Is this going to be part of the radio 1 schedule shake-up that we should be expecting soon?
I actually quite like Jamie, I think he has done a good job taking over moyles which was always going to be a difficult task.

maybe they should stick Dreem Teem on a Saturday and promote the blue room on Sunday at 10am.

I think Scott Mills is funny when he doesn't nick material off Moyles. I heard him this morning saying about how he made Bargain Hunt popular with young people, I am convinced it was Chris though. Can someone confirm that, I'm sure Chris was first.

The only decent part of Jamie Theakston's show is on Weekend Players, when they get an OAP to sing a playllist song!

Scott Mills got to praising Bargain Hunt and got the Duke on the phone way before Chris.

i agree.

first time i listened to her (which wasn't her first show) she was awful playing the wrong jingles and songs.


1xtra can keep her!

I've not listened to much of Jamie before (as I've been working/in bed, etc...) but I'm listening to him just and, although he has a completely different style from moyles, I think he's quite good. He's pretty slick with his jingles and records and everything, and his links are pretty amusin too.

I just hope they don't replace him with someone really bad.

what you want to do is

- get pissed on a friday
- wake up about midday
- listen to ricky gervais and stephen merchant on xfm [104.9 in london]

starts at 1pm. i used to listen earlier in the year before he took a massive break to film second series of the office. it was funny as a mother hubbard.

i'm really going to need digi radio when i go to uni.

Ooo, another oppurtunity to b!tch about 1xtra. Yes please!

Relegate KC to 1xtra and stop cross-promoting the hell out of it on Radio 1 at the earliest oppurtunity. Ah, in an ideal world... - jc
