I have enjoyed listening to Will Manning and Aimee Vivian together during the festive period, I think they will be together on Capital in 2017 either on Drive in London or possibly replacing Dave Berry at breakfast also with a network Saturday show.

They seem to be obsessed with young female YouTubers at the moment for some reason

Post of the year 😀

I wouldn't have thought there would be a set age really.

Why does age matter if you're targeting the right audience? I think Elise will sound quite at home on heart.

Just Bodg & Matt for Capital NE breakfast as of tomorrow as expected.

Also how long has Early Breakfast just been an hour long from 5-6am, seems pointless!

Fame hungry self obsessed wannabies, All declaring that they are a model 🙄 None of whom have any real interest in music/radio just as long as they are "famous" as such by being on radio.

It's just while Aimee is covering London Breakfast, she does an hour before the show starts

Looks like Capital North Wales coast have dropped the 5am opt out( 96.3 frequency) for the Welsh language show, as I was listening this morning and Amiee Vivian was on, and if you don,t believe me check the playlist on the website, not that I care anyway because 5 am was a stupid time to have it on.

Where has the time gone? Listening to some recordings of the galaxy network again lately and i still maintain capital Is not a patch on it. It's lackluster and boaring in comparison frankly. Hopefully things might improve when de-regulation happens and it goes national but i suspect it won't.

I know it can't really be compared, but kiss on the other hand seems to be sounding well these days. Maybe it's because the music seems to be within the format the station is trying to achieve.

They're still required to do 6x 1hour Welsh programmes per week.

So which one is it? She can't "do well on heart" if she is "to young for the heart brand".

Here is Capitals nye midnight countdown....Personally I feel there should of been music bang on midnight as there is no distinction between 2016 and 2017 apart from the big ben bongs but isnt clear enough in my opinion...

Shame they didn't follow in the footsteps of previous years with clips of the year's news headlines. Considering the amount of change and surprise in 2016.
