Do you think Global will launch another Capital station on Digital One across the UK similar to Smooth Extra and Heart Extra with the London Breakfast being on between 06.00 - 10.00 followed by non stop music until 19.00 then a simulcast of Capital London until 10.00 the next morning.
The station could be called Capital Hits. Capital has less UK coverage than Heart and Smooth so this station may be launched to serve areas of the UK where there is no Capital station on FM. |

Pandora leaves Capital for Kiss and a few behind the scenes staff are moving to new positions at global or are leaving the group.

Interesting times ahead at Capital one would think, "the next phase " is approaching, whatever that is ?
The one big thing I guess they still can't is network breakfast, it will be interesting to see how the promised further de-regulation of the sector pans out, it may actually remove any requirement for locally produced shows. |

That is a real shame. I'm a big fan of Neev. I wonder where she is off to.

KISS Programme Director Andy Roberts told us: “Pandora really understands what is needed to engage audiences in a multi-platform world – she’s going to be a great addition to the KISS team and we can’t wait for her to join.”
I'll give Bauer their credit they're brilliant at corporate BS. What he should have said is, "Pandora really understands how to talk for 20 seconds and then press play..." |

Don’t know how that would fit in with Marvin’s work schedule – I believe he does This Morning occasionally. |

Marvin could be the replacement but correct me if I'm wrong Isn't if Friday night show and Saturday night show voice tracked?

As for networking breakfast, hopefully this won't ever happen. I don't think in the big cities it's worth doing. I think they'd actually lose too many listeners for it to be worth the money they'd save. |

Lol... some people on here are ridiculous. I think she's pretty good - bang on-brand for Capital. And indeed Kiss for her next move.Really strange move in many ways. You'd look at Capital as a bigger brand, but Kiss are pretty much their biggest rival. I'm guessing she was either poached with a very good offer, or told she better find employ elsewhere by Tabor. |

Yes....Because move along sweet as they have big plans for Roman.
Ashley is almost certainly sharpening his axe as we speak, ready to rampage round Leicester Square like an egocentric Grim Reaper!

When Paul Jackson made the curious decision to bring in James Bassam for early breakfast (2008 I think), I really did not think he'd form a key part of a national Capital in 8 years' time.
So, in reference to what Hitmusic said, it's strange that Pandora would be moved on before him. |
