CD:UK is being relaunched on Saturday September 17th with Lauren Laverne, Myleene Klass and Johny P as the permanent presenting team. There'll be new features and a download chart to go along with the usual stuff, and I've heard there'll be more focus on pop music as TOTP is seeming to go more adult now.
I could care less about Johny P, and Myleene will be nice on mute, but CD:UK made a great signing in Lauren, she could save the show.

I hope they bring back Brittany Murphy for special occasions. I was really enjoying Dave Berry as well. I thought he was good. I don't like the looks of this Johny P person. Looks far to arrogant and 'gangsta'. But I'm glad there focusing back to pop music. I take it there will also be a new look and set of graphics?

Wasn't Johny P on some kind of T4 reality show?
Like Shipwrecked or Eden or something?

She used to be the lead singer of Kenickie, and is now a music TV presenter, probably the best one on TV.

Focus more on pop? They had Busted/McFly /V on the show every week.

Like Shipwrecked or Eden or something? Yes, he was on Eden. The first time I saw him on MTV I could not work out where I'd seen him before. I ended up watching an hour's worth of some totally rubbish programme before realising who he was. Anyway: Lauren Laverne! Lauren Laverne! LAUREN LAVERNE!! That is very exciting. I am liking this "more pop" idea very much as well. CD:UK could be like Popworld Saturday (with an audience and more music). Jessica

Do 'Lauren Laverne' and 'more pop' go together?
Is she not an indie kid....or have I got the wrong person?

Lauren and Myleene will both be ace. Lauren can get all enthused about the indie, and Myleene can go in for the pop- it's like the perfect balance. I'm really chuffed for Myleene getting this gig, she totally deserves it. Roll on September!

If you looked up "Top bird" in the dictionary, there would be a picture of Lauren Laverne there. She's ace. I can see her being enthusiastic about indie and pop alike. Never heard of Johnny P, but if my surname was Pitts, and I was going for a career on the telly, I'd probably change it altogether rather than try to pass myself off with a wanky initial. I don't like him already.

Lauren could be good if she doesn't have to stick too rigidly to a script...I'd sooner keep Holly Willoughby on though. How does Myleene manage it? Does she have the best agent in the world or what? Failed pop career. Failed classical career. I bet she's gone by Xmas, along with Johnny P with Simon from Popworld drafted in to replace.

I've know idea who Jonny P is but Myleene and Lauren seem an odd couple. I can see it being like when Twiggy and Coleen Nolan presented This Morning when Richard and Judy left. The public didn't take to them and they were soon ditched!
Dave Berry was doing ok really.

go Lauren, someone who i don't feel insulted by! I really do hope this new cd:uk works. TOTP has already fucked us all over and terrestrial t.v needs a flagship weekly pop music show.

So it won't clash with Popworld as that's moving to 10.30. I was a bit worried about that, especially with TOTP Saturday (or Reloaded or whatever) returning.

All three on at roughly the same time? That's not fair, I can't record them all! Stupid schedulers.

Info about the new CD:UK chart has been released - it'll be like the old TRL Chart, except that as well as voting for songs to go up the chart, you can also vote for songs to go DOWN the chart. And it will also have pre-releases, so the likes of the Sugababes, Charlotte Church and Rachel Stevens who all have singles coming up will be in the CD:UK Chart.

I really like it. Myleene and Lauren seem to have a good vibe. Pitts will be gone in three months.
