Grimshaw on Radio1 (4 Viewers)

Nick · Sep 25, 2012

Awful, my radio was on radio1 from last week and had him on yesterday morning and I got so fed up of hearing about One Direction and Justin Bieber that I turned it off.

I think the BBC will have done their job at getting a younger audience and it will be interesting to see the listening figures.

Radio one was never the same after they got rid of mark and lard.

Otis · Sep 25, 2012

Totally agree. They were like a breath of fresh air.

Radio 1 is now targeted at 18-24 year olds.

....If you're not tuned in to Shaun Keaveny on 6....

...you're just not tuned in...

Otis · Sep 25, 2012

Never heard of him.

Music taste? Style?

jimmyhillsfanclub · Sep 25, 2012

Indie/Rock/Alternative.

Good interviews, Sessions, bit of a comedian....

...6 music throughout the day is top class.

Breakfast: Shaun Keaveny.
Morning: Lauren Laverne.
Afternoon: Radcliffe & Marconie.
Tea-time:Steve Lamacq
Evening: Mark Riley

.....turn on, tune in & rock out man!

So why have they brought in Grimmy who is 28? Just doesn't make sense.

Otis · Sep 25, 2012

Cos he's into kids?

He's not a singing school teacher on the run in France by any chance is he?

stupot07 · Sep 25, 2012

He's awful, can't stand his grating voice..

I listen to Danny Wallace on Xfm at the mo. Great music and very funny. Listened to Christian O'Connell on Absolute for a bit, but I found myself getting the urge to travel to London and hurt him and his fellow presenters every morning, which was not the best way to start the day.

Saturday mornings are Frank Skinner. Superb.

jimmyhillsfanclub · Sep 25, 2012

Otis (and everybody else)...

..Just look at this list of a single weeks output from 6....

....Why would you go anywhere else? (other than the footy commentary obviously)

Cause my DAB radio has broken.

jimmyhillsfanclub · Sep 25, 2012

....but you still have t'internet......

We'll_live_and_die · Sep 25, 2012

No speakers to speak of.

Covstu · Sep 25, 2012

yes since Moyles i have moved to Talksport in the morning now. Good banter and discussion about all sports, mostly football of course!

We'll_live_and_die · Sep 25, 2012

I need to get me a new DAB for work. Any ideas where I can get a cheap un chaps? Personally I like XFM and BFBS.

I'd second that, the Frank Skinner's show is very good. As is the Danny Baker show on Saturday mornings although I normally listen to both on the podcasts.

Use to love Arrow Rock, can't believe they binned it , no adverts, no presenters, just decent music all day long.:claping hands:

28!!!!!!!! The old bastard

Tad · Sep 26, 2012

Didn't like Moyles, too big headed. Remember wanting to hear an interview with a band once and Moyles wouldn't shut up long enough to let them answer. It was really embarrassing to listen. God knows how the band felt.

Otis · Sep 26, 2012

I usually listen to the radio in my car. As 6 Music is on DAB i can't get it.

jimmyhillsfanclub · Sep 26, 2012

My bruv has got one of these in his van.....reckons its the bees knees..

Otis · Sep 26, 2012

So you stick it on your windscreen?

Marty · Sep 26, 2012

I've got a Pure DAB radio, It was expensive at £100 but is worth every penny, Think I'll get one of those in car ones too.

Edit:- this is what I have. http://www.radio-now.co.uk/pure_chronos_CD.htm

Blind_Faith · Sep 26, 2012

Grimshaw is just terrible, as said before, all he wants to talk about is one direction and justin fuckface bieber, but i suppose everything has to change eventually and its a sign im getting a bit older :facepalm:

Loved the chris moyles show, if it was him on his own i couldnt listen but as a team they were bloody brilliant !!!

From what I've heard, more like 11-18 year olds.

Hope his first set of listening figures are dire, and that Radio 1 live to regret giving Moyles the elbow.

It is very much for teenagers! Nothing at all appeals to twenties or above unless they like one direction!

It is weird how he hangs around with kids anyway

Radio 2 rules.....or is it just me getting older??/

I've got two DAB radios. Just not in my car. It's the only time I listen to the radio unless the City are playing away.
