absolutely


Although I think the talent has known for a while and is already off (Jon Richardson a particular case in point for me)


It's been coming this decision but still hacks me off - for the price of Moyle's lunch, a whole station playing the stuff that people normally had to wait until 8pm for


bah humbug

I know there's been talk but foolishly hoped it wouldnt happen.


Didn't I hear him last Sunday morning? Or is he due to disappear? Was odd hearing him on fighting talk on 5live


This station costs around 6 mill a year from what I understand... doesnt Wossy leaving cover that and then some?


Moyles ... urgh!

although it did have George Lamb. It wasn't perfect by any means


But it was(is) still head and shoulders above any other music station. If I could listen to the likes of Guy Garvey, Tom Robinson, Mark Radcliffe somewhere else I would so so - but I can't so the once thing the BBC does well (and cheaply) is now gone

I'd be interested to know if the daytime music policy is as it always was and not been dumbed down- for want of a better phrase. I know that there are a few ex- Radio 1 DJs on the station. I only ever tend to listen in the evenings or on a sunday, and that is as it always has been.

Radio 1 always had a handful of decent shows- but generally at indecent times.


I catch the end of Steve Lamacq sometimes before Mark Riley's show, and he still thinks he's doing the evening session from Radio 1- it's devoid of anything remotely interesting. But, if it means the station survives long-term then so be it.


I find that if you don't listen before 7pm, except on Sundays, then you can't go wrong. Although, i've always had a weakness for Lauren Laverne, but have never really listened to her show.


I find that listening to Marc Riley, Tom Robinson, Gideon Coe, Tom Ravenscroft, Stuart Maconie's Freakzone, Cerys Matthews, Jarvis Cocker (is he still on?), Huey Morgan (most of the time), Craig Charles, Iggy (but I think he's gone now) is guaranteed to enhance your life.

    • Fabulous - need some citric acid for the toilets - will pop in there.
    • Another review about a plasterer & handy man called Omar. Very professional, clean and up to standards. He’s done a couple of works in my flat, plastering, tiling & rendering. As you can see not easy task for someone of us, but he managed to do all of it and all turned out amazing. Highly recommended    His number is 07535 651443
    • When mine was stolen I tracked it to Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbury's car park, where it sat for several hours, and then over to a phone shop on Rye Lane in Peckham. Police thought they likely stash them somewhere in the car park until they have a few to drop off. It's literal schoolkids, so even worse in the holidays.
    • Saw the aftermath of another phone theft on east dulwich grove by trio last night. Then half an hour later spotted them biking back to 'work'. Crazy the police can't do anything about this - they are clearly cruising the same streets.
