If I was Head of Radio 1, I'd try and poach Tatum from KISS and bring back the late-night entertainment show that aired Mondays - Wednesdays 21:00 - 23:00 and have Sam and Tatum host it, they have great chemistry from their podcast.When Tyler West joined KISS Breakfast and left the drive show, KISS should've given it to Sam and Tatum, then signed Rio Fredrika for Tatum's old slot. If they did that, I don't think Sam would've joined a direct competitior of KISS, Radio 1, but KISS chose to have one of their strongest and longest-running presenters only on the weekend.I understand that this isn't a permanent slot for Sam but Minah Shannon (May 2025), Lauren Redfern (June 2025), Mylo and Rosie (July 2025) and Charley Marlowe (August 2025) have all hosted the slot since Radio 1 re-introduced it in January 2025 and now have many cover opportunities on the station.
13 hours ago13 hr Dean has just fallen into the same spot as Jamie and Vick. He’s so frequently off that it leaves me wondering why he still has a spot. Nat is also falling into this spot but its a newer habit of hers. Granted i’d much rather her be in weekdays anyways and there’s the added bonus of nat actually being a good presenter! As with KISS I 100% agree that Tatum needs to go, she’s too good a presenter to not even be on FM radio anymore. Rio and Talina are right there and can get carried over easily. I think a major R1 lineup change is on the way cause most weekday presenters have had these slots for like 2-3 years now iirc (Dean, RMC, M&M, VKJ; with Greg having the Breakfast slot longer as one of UK radio’s biggest names now).also forgot to mention but it looks like Danni is gonna solo the breakfast show tmrw. Although the anthems slot is listing Sam too, breakfast only lists Danni. she’s definitely top 3 r1 presenters so i’m fully behind this! Edited 13 hours ago13 hr by Jay79x

However, for Dean, Vick and Jamie it is an issue as their shows are on 4 days a week.Also, Danni soloing Breakfast? This will be good. Edited 3 hours ago3 hr by earthisturning
