i think aled said the working hashtag was going to be #37 hours

[bmstinton93]

Obviously without the space in between 37 and hours otherwise the hashtag would only work on the 37

I vaguely remember Rachels name being mentioned during a chat about the marathon show.Will she make a on air appearance as I do miss her dulcet tones.

im guesing carrie and rachel will be on a some point

Why would Carrie be involved?

[Yudster]

Old Times Sake?

We've settled on #R1MoreMoyles

[Aled]

I read you post or tweet (can't remember) about a social display for the marathon show. Is there gonna be a hashtag kinda thing going on, have you decided on one? I've seen you use a few different ones in the last few weeks when talking about the show. If it's that interactive, it's going to be great. A good way to pilot a tweet to the studio system too

We're working on a few interactive ideas. Ideally something that will combine the SMS, Twitter and Facebook messages into one which we want to have displayed on a specially drafted in 'Social Screen'.

We're working on the details now

[bmstinton93]

Yes it will.

[Aled]

what hours are you planing to do aled?

Don't know actually. I know I'm scheduled to work 5am - 1pm but I'll also be working 9pm - 2am so I might try and get my sleep during the day so that I'm around the night and morning.

Are chris and dave gonna have complete freedom during the overnight slots for what music they can play?

No. The shows will have the presenters who are normally hosting there with us and they will have created their normal show in regards to music selection and features and will be explaining it to Chris and Dave

[bmstinton93]

What about the 12 - 2 show? Will they choose the music then?

[Aled]

That music will be scheduled. With 37+ hours of show do get through do you think they're interested in picking the music too!?

Even the Golden Hour is in doubt on that Friday at this stage

[bmstinton93]

Fair point. Thanks for answering. Maybe you should pick the golden hour for one week only if Chris doesn't feel up to it.

[Yudster]

There's been a lot of speculation about whether they will try to keep going until their own Friday morning show. Do you think they'll give it a go Al? It seems a really tough ask to me, but such a tempting and natural target.

There's only so many Kylie and Madonna hits from one year you can have. Though if you picked a recent year, you could just play Glee.

Haha, I was just going to say there's not that much 'old' Gaga stuff!

I'm not a Golden Hour kinda guy! I'm not a fan of older music - you may have heard?

[R94N]

Too true, too true Although it isn't necessarily a bad thing.

my bad, I meant to ask what bmstinton asked. Cheers though, I still think it'd be great if chris and dave had themselves chosen the music beforehand, but nevermind. That midnight to 2 slot is one I'm possibly gonna stay up for.

[bmstinton93]

Can i pick the golden hour this week?!

[MK Chris]

Aled - I have a genuine question about what would be the point of simulcasting on Radio 2 and Five Live? There may be something I've not thought of, but everyone who can get Radio 2 or Five Live in some way can also get Radio 2, so all it seems to achieve is stifling choice for Radio 2 and Five Live listeners? Or have I got that all wrong?
