Radio 1's Nihal meets James Blunt
James Blunt came into Radio 1 and had a chat with Nihal on his weekend breakfast show. He also done a live 2008 ‘You’re Beautiful’ remix live on the show with the help of Nathan ‘Flutebox’ Lee.


Nihal Radio 1 Rest In Peace Mr Michael Jackson. Love the music, but some of the coverage has been nasty and some of the punditry bizarre ( I saw some doctor talking about heart attacks earlier), you can't ignore the man's controversial life but some respect would be nice. What a loss to music.


Julie at 6:47am June 27
He was a genius no mistake!! Danced many hours away to his music - thanks Michael you were the best!! xxxx
Karen at 8:48am June 27
Are you supposed to be celebrating and paying tribute to Michael Jackson? or just coming out with crap. The man is dead so what if he did some weird things in life. Would half of you slag your own family member this way?


Nihal Radio 1 Off to Radio 1 in 45 minutes. Beats basslines and badboy musical swagger from midnight.


Nihal Radio 1 I'm sitting my Biology GCSE at Radio 1 of all places at 10.45am this morning an I am bricking it. The fear is beginning to creep in. I've read 20 pages of my revision guide and now I know that Low Density Lipoproteins need a good slap whereas High Density Lipoproteins are lovely things that need a nice slap up meal (low cholesterol). Wish me luck!

so how was it? Ill tune in later to hear or the details. . .how glad i am not 2 b a teenager!
Nihal Radio 1 at 2:29am June 20
I kind of knew some of it but was gutted that a question came up that I had just skimmed through in the revision guide. Doh! I think I knew why an arctic fox was suited to it's environment.


Nihal Radio 1 In the studio, wondering about the most useless advice in a song ever, I've got a track I'm going to play for you on BBC Radio 1 in about 10 minutes time.

Nihal Radio 1 R1BW! Swindon was incredible. Saw very little in the way of bands but Sumo wrestled Grimmy (an won!), talked about european elections with Aled, and DJ'd in a curry house with Vernon and Reggie. Intro'd Chase & Status onstage, it totally went off and saw Moyles battle Westwood.

Happy New Year - Methinks yours is gonna be busy!
John at 3:32pm April 14

Nihal Radio 1 back from Oz, will tell you all about it this weekend, three days in Oz two days on a plane. Don't want to see an airport or plane for a while. How r you?


Sarah at 8:10am March 31
Hey Nihal how did the meeting go this morning with the British Council - you important person you!?
Nihal Radio 1 at 9:01am March 31
Really good meeting, the BC is an amazin organisation that so few people know about here in the UK, as for important person Sarah, that's something i will never be described as. Maybe by my son in years to come.


Nihal Radio 1 I'm DJing in Sydney an melbourne this weekend so Huw will be doing the show. Have you been to either of these cities? I'm only in Oz for 4 days! Any tips?
Jade at 5:21pm March 23
Gutted you're off! I listen to your show EVERY Sunday whilst I'm working. It gets me through a gruelling 6 hour shift on my own!! I don't have an independant adjudicator to back me up on doing an hours solid work though!!


Janith at 8:29am March 26
I would suggest that you swing by Singapore either on your way out to Oz or on your way back !


Nihal Radio 1 I hope you enjoyed the shows this weekend. And I hope you treated your mum today (and every day).


Kyle at 12:46pm March 22
So I was listening to your show on satellite radio here in the States and nearly had a panic attack that I had forgotten Mother's Day. It took me a second, but then I remembered that our Mother's Day isn't until May---phew.


Nihal Radio 1 hello everyone can't reply to every1 personally as I'm on air at the moment, thanks for the messages.


Nihal Radio 1 Hi Matt Davis! Not sure I will be mate, may not be bk til Bestival in Sept. Glad you listen Mark. Hope you enjoyed today's show. Kind of sorted Kirstine.
