Radio 1 presenters to fall silent today
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 27 September 2013
As Radio 1’s ‘Even More Music Month’ draws to a close today, the station will cram yet more songs into its schedule by forcing its presenters to shut the bloody hell up for twelve hours.
Already underway since the start of Nick Grimshaw’s breakfast show this morning, the jocks are only allowed to communicate with listeners via the official Radio 1 Twitter account. So, it’ll be really easy to avoid them all day. Except Newsbeat, which will insist on filling your brain with spoken words. I knew there had to be a catch.
From 5pm today, the station will also be playing its 100 most played tracks of the last five years back to back, culminating in a listener voted top 30. So that’s nice.
