Meeting the Staff

Meeting the Staff

While we were there we had the chance to meet some of the producers, DJ’s and other production staff.

Will Kinder who joined Radio One in 1997 started by producing the Zoe Ball show, then finally ended up joining and producing the Chris Moyle’s show. Radio One starts off with The Chris Moyle’s show at 7 am. The Chris Moyle’s show replaced Zoe Ball because of the drop in listeners.

Then we met the music policy producer Sarita Jagpal. We were told how pluggers visit the station each day hoping to win the chance to get their clients music on the play list, Sarita then explained her job as music policy producer, and how she sits down with the plugger and reviews the record for it’s qualities, the policy producer then goes away and meets with the head of music and other producers, after this the head of music makes the final decision on who gets there music played on radio one.

Later Jo Whiley presented the Live Lounge replacing Moyle’s show. During the Live Lounge you generally get artists coming in and singing other artists songs live, In the afternoon Edith Bowman and Colin Murray take over. With their classy personality and great selection of songs, they are a great hit.
Scot Mills appears at 4 pm to host his show, his show is usually pure laughter, with his winding people up on the phone, the flirt divert, great songs again and general chit chat.
