A Day In The Life Of Radio One - Part One

[fantasticministry2]

I bet Adrian was from 5:30 to 7am

[JeBeNL]

After closing the offshore-stations Radio One became more listeners, even me from Holland

[abhudson14]

when Radio 1 was fab

[2bitvillain]

If you are a DJ, you should know music. Like a builder should know bricks. Radio One is now, and probably always has been a station full of egocentric fucktards who know only about themselves. If you want DJ's who know music, listen to Radio 6. Or Stuart Maconie. End of argument.

[coltsuperocean10]

@2bitvillain Well said. Radio 1 died the day Mark & Lard left. The shit that followed was fucking awful, Edith Bowman, Colin Murray, Jo Whilley (proper annoying smug cunt ) Greg James, Chris Moyles, "Comedy" Dave (about as fucking funny as cancer!) Scott boring dull bastard retarded cunt Mills (how can this annoying twat be a R1 DJ when he has said he doesnt even like music!) Fearne Cotton, all fuckin shit, proper talentless shit!

[tubeless2552]

@coltsuperocean10 very well said - radio one is full of wankers - except judge jules and pete tong

[digitalisthedevil666]

they were legends in their own bathroom mirrors

[costellodan]

Wicked! I used to have this, and have looked for it for AGES. Thank You!

[dermotsullivan]

What a load of shite. That guy 'Adrian John' is a wanker. I thought it was send up but he was for real. How embarrassing

[abhudson14]

@dermotsullivan Adrian his a great DJ a hole lot beter than what you have now on Radio 1

[Alimantado91]

Shit then, shit today.

Wall to wall drivel. Having to listen to Steve Wright everyday at work was mind numbing. Prime time radio DJs are a cross between David Brent and slick childrens entertainers.

[bealerDSB]

classic music times /sadly missed along with my teenage years/

[abhudson14]

this is when Radio 1 was brill noadays is crap with talentless djs

[kesterwww]

At 7mins 10secs, why were those two men wearing the same clothes to the road show? Even worse, they were Radio 1 tee shirts. Were they making a statement.

[crusher19860138]

Radio 1 today is unlistenable,the worst its ever sounded,with poor dj's and poor schedules.Everyone i know in thier listener range (15-24) are listening to commercial radio such as Galaxy or Beacon or Kerrang.

[Scottishgal78]

Poor Djs? What's wrong with Chris Moyles, Edith Bowman, Scott Mills & Chappers & Dave?

[mjd775]

...scottishgal78, thats exactly why Radio 1 is so shit today!! Scott Mills doesnt even know anything about music for a start!! Radio 1 died the day Mark and Lard left. Radio 1 is for sheep now. They will listen to the boring DJs with their sycophants!! Its all about Ego nowadays!!

[RobinCarmody]

That would be a regional thing (you're in the West Midlands, I assume). There are still areas (such as mine) where there are no other youth-orientated FM stations and where the "heritage" ILR is being Heartified.

Of course if national commercial radio had been handled properly this wouldn't even be an issue ...

[rmevans1961]

Fascinating! Looks so dated now and you can see why it had to change. Egton House looks a right old dump but I understand it's since been demolished.

[DaveNightingale]

It's from the video "One on One"

"Good Morning - welcome to Radio 1's world of music.."

[leepenfold]

it used to be Britians Favourite Radio Station with audince over 22 Millon a week in 1988 Johhny Beerling was the best controller of all time

[RobinCarmody]

No he wasn't, and if he'd been allowed to stay any longer it would have been privatised and a major national asset would have been lost.

[RobinCarmody]

It's 1988 actually.

[samuelbailey]

It's more like 1991/1992. Not 1997
