So all 4 of them will be presenting it?

I might actually listen to it for once if those two clowns won't be on it. They make me cringe at the mistakes they make - maybe they might learn something from professionals. :smoke:

You can listen to a clip of the opening of Radio 1 on Sep 30 1967 HERE

Mark Goodier was great, so knowledgeable, interesting and enthusiastic about the chart, particularly when he spoke to the artists live on the show

 

JK & Joel use the chart as a vehicle for their own success...they really don't care about it in any way or have any interest in it whatsoever

JK and Jerk are no longer presenting the chart show after October, Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates are taking over :cheer:

How ironic 2 weeks after the 40th Radio 1 Anniversary, Radio 1 gets a revamp with JK & Jerk leaving a fortnite later.
Goodier OR Brookes should be brought back FULL STOP!

Age shouldn't come into it!!

 

I totally agree, or just bring in someone who can do a professional job & get their facts right or is that too hard to ask of Radio 1?
