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.

    • Hello,  Does anyone know of a garage to rent in the East Dulwich area?  Best,  Anthony 
    • So glad to give support in any small way. It happens more often than you think. I live near a footpath anf once came home from holiday to find that someone had poured paint through the bottom of the fence which had run all down through my soil and on to my plants. It was a job trying to dig out all the contaminated soil and to this day I still find bits of paint in the soil. No idea who it was or why they would do such a thing.
    • Glad this is back on, looking forward to seeing you all tonight
