Jo Whiley had a calming voice and always sounded like she was smiling when on air.

Fearne is ok, but a bit too girly :/

Shame.

They need to get rid of Vernon, he is a rubbish DJ and all they have to do is press buttons these day.. if that!

They took a nose dive not long ago, but are coming back sadly. I wasn't particularly impressed that he blatantly took material from Kerrang's The Night Before Show if I'm honest. Was never official, but as a listener to both I recognised it being used again a few weeks later by Moyles.

Know what you mean BB. Fearne cotton gets on my t*ts. I just imagine her going home and crying into her pillow every night because her boyfriend has been mean to her.

I love Edith's voice. She can come live with me.

Radio 1 daytime has been in steady decline for quite a while now and the shortage of talent hasn’t helped matters by stretching the few good DJ’s they had remaining too thinly. Greg James may be little more than a Scott Mills wannabe at the moment but he did manage to do the early breakfast show and cover for Scott Mills for a fortnight. I swear Annie Mac and Nihal must have been living in a cupboard at Broadcasting House for a while after covering absent midweek DJs and still doing their weekend and specialist shows.

That and the playlist is shamelessly commercial now.

Maybe I should just take the hint now I’ve turned 30 and start listening to Radio 4.

Greg James is ****. He's about as funny as aids and completely uninteresting. Fearne has to be the worst presenter on radio one, yet Radio one seems to be obssessed in thinking it needs young presenters instead of great ones.

Used to love Colin and Edith, her show hasn't been the same since they parted.

Sara Cox spends all her show banging on about kids.

That's probably why I like her in a strange way, she can cry on my pillow any day

She looks similar to the chav blondie in '2 Pints of Lager...' and I can't quite help but fancy her, despite her being blonde and an utter chav.

I very much doubt Ferene will do as well as Jo, hopefully she wont try to mirror what she does, and will do something new and different. No doubt Jo is doing this to spend more time with her family.

Chris is a Marmite man, and most people hate him. I would love to sit and have a pint with him, I can imagine he is a good chortle. He seems to be craving/loving this recent attention with his weight loss. Glad he's sticking to it though.

Would love Mark and Lard back tbh, true comedy is needed.

Crikey, one of our PMs is her double. I'll try and dig out a picture :P

Never, ever listen to Radio One anyway, hate hate hate it.

I'm more terrified of Jo Whiley! I remember her saying live on air once that she wasn't wearing knickers. I still have a nervous twitch from that.


I love Sara Cox. Her show is like a girls night in or coffee with a mate - which is exactly why a lot of men don't like her show!
