He means, of course, Friday - in as much as the Thursday 2200 shows are being moved back by two hours to Friday 0000. I understand the BBC's need to promote their new digital-only service, though as much of the target audience ("urban" kids) presumably don't have brand-new digital radios, Sky boxes or broadband in their rooms, I'm not sure how much good a brief airing on analogue FM will do them. I doubt that the Peel slot is a sensible time for them to promote it, either, as the Peel audience are in the habit of tuning in then, and the 1Xtra target audience (probably not the same people) aren't. My feelings are the same as they were during John's holiday - you can't replace something as gloriously eclectic as the Wingding with a genre-based show, without it feeling flat. I stayed awake to the second Cowcube track last night. I'm now going to listen to the rest on the web. Hooray for broadband. Rob From martin_wheatley@...

I think what they BBC are thinking is that when their terrestrial digital tv service is launched this will cause a lot more people to have access to the digital radio channels too. Indeed if the boxes are cheap enough it may be practical to buy one as a dedicated radio receiver. With this in mind they are trying to raise the awareness of 1Xtra although I don't think that amateur dj on Thursday is going to help much There is an evening reorganisation on the way which we have crumbs of info about at the moment. What we do know is that Peel is staying in his 10PM slot for the 3 days but with the Peel Acres prog switching to Tuesday with the Wed and Thurs shows from London. He is likely to have a different sort of lead in as the Evening Show is going for something as yet unannounced with a wider musical range'. Not that Lamacq could have a much narrower range than at the moment - only American pseudo-punks/nu-metal and AOR Britpop stadium bands need apply - you can count the number of sessions by new British bands this year on the fingers of one hand! The program in the past has always covered the more commercial end of the UK indie scene but it seems to have lost its way completely now Having said that the temptation to move Peel to midnight must be large for a scheduler and Peel doesn't seem to mind now if they let him do it from home so I wouldn't be surprised if its in the wind eventually Nice though the Peel Acres and Maida Vale shows may be the consequent reduction in the numbers of traditional style sessions does remove a very large card from the hands of the programmes defenders. I doubt the a & r men listen to his show in the way they used to. Its all becoming a bit cosy and self indulgent. I am not optimistic! martinw From nburling@...

For sure, but how else are they gonna get this stuff to market? However crap it is, they have to play it somewhere. And the cheaper the kit becomes, the more people will get it, esp the new BBC-led digital terriestrial service. I don't agree with them moving Peel, but it's only for Sept.
