Poor choice of song to end with.

Whilst some of us at airing opinions I’m finding the smugster same old presenters too much this year. Think jo Wiley et al. BBC really need to give some younger people a go at presenting honestly.

No way. "Oldies" FTW!

Completely agree. From what I e read about Jo Wiley, she seems like a nice person, but there’s something very smug about BBC presenters when they think they’re cool.

Just rewinded to try and find Coldplay, but instead landed on interviews with Michael Kiwinuka and Cyndi Lauper instead!

finding th Iplayer a bit confusing tbh.

I like Jo Whiley as she has a nice voice.

kazzaD66 · 30/06/2024 00:05

I've never forgiven Jo Whiley for being foisted on Simon Mayo Drivetime, leading to him leaving. Shit BBC Radio controllers.

Babymamamama · 30/06/2024 00:05

Wonder if any Mumsneters work at the bbc that can feed back. 😂 The glasto i player totally messed up this year. You press to watch one act and end up having to flick through someone completely different. What’s with that I wonder?

That was her fault?

feellikeanalien · 30/06/2024 00:06

Well I just loved Coldplay. DD and I singing and dancing along. She now wants to go and see them. She has SN and her commentary was hilarious. As long as they sing The Scientist she's happy. Made me cry seeing her enjoying it so much.

ALovelyCupOfNameChange · 30/06/2024 00:06

BBCs coverage doesn’t seem as thorough as last year. I was really looking forward to it, but they’ve been a lot more choosey in what they’ve shown, rather than just streaming everything from a stage.
there’s been very little on tv, whilst I know the artists are playing.

Seems to only work if you click live.

Blown away by Coldplay. What a show. I’ve always loved them.

It was emotional seeing MJF especially while they were playing FixYou.

Michael Eavis didn’t look well to me he looked kind of out of it. although it was great to see him.

I’m another one who’s not fussy on Jo Whiley.

Roll on tomorrow.

Aquarius1234 · 30/06/2024 00:07

Bbc love everything being on I Player but its not working as it should.
I clicked on pop and dance section last night and there was 1 or two acts .
Nothing else..
I was expecting loads of archive stuff too but literally just a select few.

Appalonia · 30/06/2024 00:08

Ha there's not one but TWO threads in AIBU about Coldplay!😂

There are plenty of younger people presenting?
I like Jo - she's the ultimate professional.

kazzaD66 · 30/06/2024 00:09

No, it wasn't her fault Aquarius. It was the powers that be. But it still riles.

I always find Jo Willey a bit too cool for school

But she does have a nice voice although she had totally lost that nice voice earlier. Clara Amfo had to take over presenting duties earlier

No Michael Eavis didn't look well at all did he.

CM the most irritating man ever.

Oi! That's my future husband you're dissing! 😉 (I can dream).
Love CM- so talented and such a genuinely lovely guy.

orangelotus · 30/06/2024 00:11

I'm so old o realise I was missing John peel and mark Radcliffe
Plus I miss the exciting days of the killers and artic monkeys stormxy Beyoncé etc
Nothing against Coldplay and the crowd seemed to love them but it all feels a bit too cozy
My son is there so I'll get his feed back when he returns

Changingplace · 30/06/2024 00:12

Gone back to catch up on Coldplay, I’ve never seen them project onto the outside of the Pyramid before - that looks so cool!

Babymamamama · 30/06/2024 00:13

Oooh now I’m watching disclosure - finally some good music.
