Confirmed. And in bigger news he also takes over the Vodafone Big Top 40 from Rich and Kat.

Good news for Marvin. He's going to be very busy early next year, being the new presenter of The Voice too!
I hope the keep Friday and Saturday 7-10 'in the mix' because it's one of the best things Capital do, and it's clearly popular, though it seems bosses think it's because of the presenter rather than the format!

Not surprised Rich is going - in London Capital gets slaughtered by Kiss as soon as breakfast is over so they clearly need to freshen up daytimes. Good luck to Pandora who takes over 10-1. Can't believe James Bassam has that long left either.

Isn't that mostly due to Kisstory at 11, which has a significant spike?
Capital tried to replicate that with the 'Re-Cap' at 10 but discontinued it after a while.

Wonder why Rich Clarke is leaving? Where will he be off too next?

I'm surprised he didn't move to Heart?

Pandora is dreadful, Kiss has got no competition there, as if. Even with Capitals hiring of a new music producer poached from Kiss, who starts in Jan,Kiss is just too slick.

More changes will be revealed in near future, in line with Capitals plans for 2014.

It's a shame that got discontinued, as I enjoyed that! Any chances of seeing it return in 2014?

Could all change, but according to Radio Times & Virgin Tivo (and Capital Website).
Surprisingly New Years Eve they've still got 7hrs local? Thought they would have dropped it to 4hrs. (I know this happened when it was Leicester Sound, but thought last year they only had 4hrs local).

Based on East Midlands:

Christmas Eve:
0200-0600 Toni Phillips
0600-1000 Dino & Pete (Local Breakfast)
1000-1300 Pandora
1300-1600 Bassman
1600-1900 Tom & Claire (Local Drive)
1900-0000 Marvin

Christmas Day:
0000-0400 Adam O'Niel
0400-0800 Christian Williams
0800-1200 Ivan D'sa (Local breakfast)
1200-1600 Pandora
1600-1900 Ant Payne
1900-2200 Hits of 2013 Countdown (Automated)
2200-0200 Will Cozens

Boxing Day:
0200-0500 Adam O'Neil
0500-0800 Christian Williams
0800-1200 Ivan D'sa (Local Breakfast)
1200-1600 Pandora
1600-1900 Ant Payne
1900-2200 Hits of 2013 Countdown (Automated)
2200-0200 Will Cozens

New Years Eve:
0200-0600 Toni Phillips
0600-1000 Tom & Claire (Local Breakfast)
1000-1300 Rich Clarke
1300-1600 Ant Payne
1600-1900 Ivan D'Sa (Local Drive)
1900-0000 Marvin

New Years Day:
0000-0500: Avicii - Calvin Harris - David Guetta
0500-0800: Adam Inker
0800-1200: Dino & Pete (Local Breakfast)
1200-1600: Pandora
1600-1900: Ant Payne
1900-2200: Christian Williams
2200-0200: Will Cozens
0200-0600: Ant Payne

Seems to me, they'll be in the mix commercial free 1900-0500 New Years Eve then??

I am so happy they finally got Ivan D'Sa Back, and many people in our work are now once again listening to 105.4 on a Sunday now Lets hope it lasts, as he's a great DJ, and glad he got some extra shows over Christmas (as always!).

Question:
Has Capital played any classic Christmas songs yet (slade, Band Aid, Wizzard)? or are they reserving these for Christmas Day only? So far all I've heard is a few recent tracks only, the oldest being a 2009 - Last Christmas by Ariana Grande. I would have though the audience being 10-15 years would love Christmas songs?? And it seems Capital have the Merry Christmas Jingles, but no Christmas songs??
I'm sure last year they played them from about 15th and mixed them between normal playlist, I think even Bing Cosby's white christmas got an airing on Christmas Day!!

Totally agree I much prefer to listen to Danny Mylo on the Pulse once the Dose is Finished at 10 then to listen to her

On Capital Birmingham during breakfast I've heard Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" quite a few times over the last couple of weeks. The only other Christmas song I can recall hearing during breakfast is Leona's "One More Sleep", but obviously that comes under the recent category you mentioned.

Can't comment other than that as I only really listen to Capital Birmingham at breakfast.

That was part of Andi Durrant's Xmas Mixtape which included Run DMC and The Supremes!

Agreed, The Bassman is in his mid 40s now, way too old for the Capital target.
