Anyone that says they talked too much and didn't play enough music clearly didn't get what the show was all about.

I'm struggling to find a single thing to listen to.
Radio 2 this morning had an artist on who was born in 1927. This is not for me.

Maybe so but I really don't want to listen people waffling and playing silly games when I've just opened my eyes ffs.

Rather that than listen to people shouting at me on Kiss, Grimmy whine on and play crap music or, as pete said, listen to old random crap. At least with the Moyles lot, it was like waking up, walking into the kitchen and being greeted by some mates having a chat, having some laughs and generally not being serious or acting like "DJ's".

So you're quite happy to listen to someone wanking off over One Direction and Justin Bieber instead?
Hmmmmm....

I also haven't listened since Moyles left. Although I suppose I'm probably 10 years too old for the BBC and Radio 1, so they've gotten what they wanted. I could bear some of Fearne after listening to Moyles, but now there is just no reason to listen on a weekday whatsoever.

Tuned into Grimmy Monday morning after a night shift. His feature - 'who tweeted me good luck' - if thats how he means to go on, what a load of shite.
Gutted Moyles has gone. Only used to listen when driving home from nights as at work during most sessions. Used to keep me awake, never a theme to it, just banter. I give Grimmiy 3 months until he 'moves onto something different' aka they realise hes shit and sack him

Gave Grimmy a chance but then he pronounced the letter 'H' incorrectly. So I won't be listening to his penis-grating voice again.

They won't be released until the end of this quarter, and then you'll need a subscription to Rajar (which is Ł2,114 for the year) to see the quarter-hourly figures and compare them to when Moyles was on.
Unless, of course, they are released to the press/BBC - http://www.metro.co.uk/music/913028-nick-grimshaws-first-radio-1-breakfast-show-met-with-mixed-twitter-reaction 7.1m on his first show.

They send guys out to distribute survey books. I did one a few weeks ago because a guy came round my village looking for people in a certain age range to fill out the book. The days are split into 15 mins segments and you mark down when you listen to each station.
