This will be difficult but I’ll have a predict of what will be added to the playlist tomorrow:

• Rag’n’Bone Man - All You Ever Wanted

• Riton etc - Friday

• Tom Grennan - Little Bit Of Love

• Rose Grey - Save Your Tears

• Doja Cat - Streets

• Ben Howard - What A Day

• Kings of Leon - The Bandit

• Clean Bandit ft. Iann Dior - Higher

• Prospa - The Thrill

• ATB, Topic and A7S - Your Love (9pm)

 

Can’t see all of these getting playlisted but it would be nice to see most of them!

I think Ben Howard might not be added for a couple of weeks yet.

 

How about:

• Griff - Black Hole

• Baby Queen - Raw Thoughts

• Jc Stewart - Break My Heart

• Silk City feat. Ellie Goulding - New Love

 

I'd like to see at least Griff and Baby Queen from this list!

I’d be shocked if they added two legendary artists like Ben Howard and KOL in the same week!

A brilliant jibe at Capital this morning from Jordan North :lol: someone texted "Play Blackout Crew or I’m switching to Capital", he replied on air: "If you want to listen to the same four songs in a row and adverts every five minutes, crack on, son"

 

then he said: "What we’re going to do is we’re going to take your personality and we’re going to turn it into a robot and we want you to talk like this…" (in a posh voice, presumably because he used to work for them)

😂 is he allowed to say that?

Greg James has got a big announcement on his show after 8am tomorrow which involves another radio 1 DJ. I’m guessing that it will be something Comic Relief related, possibly another lolathon with Scott and Chris?

I was thinking the exact same thing, would not be surprised if it did turn out to be that and it would be a good idea too!

It’s that time of year for this sort of thing and not sure if a Big Weekend can happen until next year at this stage.

And you were correct!

I wonder whether we might get 2 insta A List adds this week with both Years and Years and Twenty One Pilots. I’d be surprised if they’re not with the amount that radio 1 are hyping them both up the last couple of days!

 

It would also be nice to see Bicep, Majestic/ Boney M, Franky Wah and Jungle added.

 

There’s also a track which I heard Jordan North play a couple of weeks ago called Just For The Times by Everyone You Know which I would absolutely love to see on the playlist as I can’t stop listening to it!

Can see 21 Pilots being instant added but not sure about Years & Years maybe C Listed on release week would be more likely!

Your right Dan Years & Years instant added to the A List 😍

 

Also a second new entry in the A-List for TBC ft TBC 🤔

Radio 1 is currently broadcasting Radio 4 with the news on Prince Philip, must be a first time for that happening

With the possibility of the Chart Show cancelled.

Yeah I’m not sure I can see the Chart happening tonight - it might just get out up on the website at 5:45!

Can anyone remember if that happened in 2002 when the Quuen mother died?

For those interested, this is how it broke on Radio 1:

 

@1380489673924087811

 

and rather awkwardly on R1 Dance:

 

@1380483636764549121

Think they did so when Diana died.

oh my at both of those interruptions! How come 1Xtra jumped into the National Anthem rather than an announcement?
