I think you will find that it has just been added to the Heart playlist today, as I said... Well underplayed.

Is Stephen and Emma show pre recorded? Will it last too? Very busy TV people as well.

I always thought it was live. I think they'll still do it in the long term. Emma may have to take a few weeks off to do TV work, but she isn't busy all year round (and has continued to do it alongside Big Brother, so it's only really The Voice that could effect it).

Yes its live still but with Emma taking over from Holly on the Voice this may well change

Jason Donovan is due back later this year as well so assuming he takes his old slot of 10am to 12pm we could see a few changes again to the Sunday line up

Option 1

Jenni Falconer leaves

Stephen Mulhern & Emma Willis move back to there old slot of 6am to 10am - possibly pre-recording the show due to other work commitments

Jason Donovan retakes his 10am till 12pm slot

Margherita Taylor continues 12pm to 4pm

Option 2

Jenni Falconer gets a longer slot of 6am to 10am

Stephen Mulhern & Emma Willis leave or take a break next year due to other commitments mainly from Emma Willis on the voice

Jason Donovan retakes his 10am till 12pm slot

Margherita Taylor continues 12pm to 4pm

Assuming Jason returns this year option 1 seems the most likely one as I would have though Jenni is only on a short term contract to cover Jason's absence

Joel Ross would be good. Liked him covering Roberto. Maybe there is a network show for him in the future. Obviously his Weekend shows would need to be replaced with someone else?

Ideas!?

Personally I wasn't keen on Joel and I know a number of other weren't either on twitter

Matt Wilkinson or Margherita Taylor cover Roberto's show the best IMO

Is Jason Donovan actually coming back?

He could always take over Emma Bunton's Saturday afternoon show as she does London breakfast now (I know Saturdays are pre recorded). But that'd prevent any changes to Sundays.

@Spotify, been told you were moaning about me elsewhere here tonight, I wasn't moaning as you suggested just pointing out that as you don't listen to Heart then Jason Donovan wont affect you one way or another,

I know. I don't know who Ramsay Ladders is but it's being very critical of everything.

So? I don't like Jason Donovan. He sounds as if he loves his own voice too much, so I can't bear to listen to him.

Also I don't like the bad segueways on other shows.

Oh, sorry about that...

My parents occasionally listen to Heart and they don't like jason Donovan either - that's why it concerned me...

Who on earth is available to replace Toby Anstis on the mid morning show? He needs to be replaced, he done 2 great big butcher's today on his show that should never be allowed to make it onto UK Radio waves.

One on Daft Punk and one on Starship. I haven't got the recordings yet but will post them when I can get hold of the Catch Up player.
Daft Punk ~ 0'40 too early
Starship ~ 1'10 too early

After today I will listen to Capital or Wave 105 instead.

It may be overplayed a little but I still find it to be a good song - thus I want to hear all 4'09 of it - not 3'28.

And I also like that Starship song. It's a little long at 4'56, but still shouldn't be chopped at 4'28, or in today's instance, 3'48.
They should play it to at least 4'42.

You don't hear Gotye that much now though? Surely they could bring it back for a couple of plays?

(I like the Gotye song too)

Thought 12-4 was local, do they now network all day Sunday?

Gavin_D is referring to the "London" service when he mentions 12-4 (which also broadcasts on some digital platforms).

I enjoy Stephen and Emma - I hope they stay on in or around the current slot (say 9-12). They were a good signing by Heart considering how much primetime TV work they've both added to their workload in the last year.

Just had a look at the playlist today and this was the songs played from 10:00 to 11:00 on Toby's show:
[LIST=1][*]Lady GaGa - Just Dance[*]Olly Murs - Troublemaker[*]Toni Braxton - Unbreak My Heart[*]Lady Antebellum - Need You Now[*]The Police - Every Breath You Take[*]Nina Nasbitt - Don't Stop[*]Erasure - A Little Respect[*]Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man[*]Journey - Don't Stop Believin' *[*]One Republic - Counting Stars[*]Adele - Make You Feel My Love[*]Labrinth - Beneath You're Beautiful[*]Mantronix - Got To Have Your Love *[/LIST]
* indicates that a song was faded before it's natural fade point.

So by the looks of it, Heart schedule 13 songs per hour. When they first started it was only 11 - 12 songs per hour, so they're squeezing an extra song or two in. With all the songs being virtually the same length year in year out, there's only one way for them to fit all the songs in - to hack off the ending of songs.
Maybe I've found the reason after all!

The timetable from 11-12:
[LIST=1][*]Belinda Carlisle - heaven Is A Place On Earth *[*]Daft Punk - Get Lucky * 3'43[*]The Source - You've Got the Love *[*]Maroon 5 - Move Like Jagger[*]Madonna - Borderline[*]James Blunt - Bonfire Heart[*]Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody[*]Pink - Just Give Me A Reason[*]Jocelyn Brown - Somebody Else's Guy *[*]Justin Timberlake - Mirrors[*]Christina perri - Jar of Hearts[*]Passenger - Let her Go[*]Mark Morrison - Return Of The mack *[/LIST]
Again, 13 songs played. Those with asterisk were cut too early.

Seems like someone is scheduling in too many songs per hour! 11 songs played in full would be better!

You do seem to be rather obsessed with Heart.

If it winds you up do much, why listen so intently?

Also the normal heart songs with Toni Braxton etc. Very poor but I guess lots like hearing those songs over and over I don't though.

I'd rather hear 13 edited songs than 11 in full.
