To find out once and for all, who is the worst?
I've chosen all the ones that are on between 7am-7pm on weekends and weekdays apart from Trevor Nelson because he's only on once a week (as are JK an Joel, but they are really annoying) and I could only put 8 in the poll.
Happy voting! and please give a reason for the hate of this particular DJ/DJing pair.

I've only ever listened to Radio1 all my lie. I survived (and even enjoyed eventually) Sara Cox at breakfast, even if she could be a little irritating.
Scott Mills is irritating and smug.
but neither of them managed to drive me away from the station altogether, unlike Chris Moyles. I can't stand him. Ugh ugh ugh.

I've avoided radio 1 lately but I was forced into listening to Sarah Cox on it last weekend and all she did was bang on about bloody Martin Platt in Coronation Street. She made me want to hunt out the radio (couldnt see it) and smash it up. Therefore she gets my vote.

Nemone is bloody awful. A genuinly woeful broadcasting talent. I like Sara Cox. At least she's destinctive. She's got her own style. Spoony is a joke. He doesnt deserve to be on national radio. It's distgusting when he's in the job he is in when surely theres better people around. He can't tell jokes for shit , he always gets peoples names wrong, pronounces band names wrong and is pretty much retarded. His music knowledge and taste is sooo out of date and poo. A couple of months ago he introduced 'Intergalactic' by the Beastie boys (released in 1998) as their NEW SINGLE. It's a classic track and he doesnt know. YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE A DJ IDIOT. Vernon Kay is bloody awful as well he really has not got the technical skills to present radio and you can tell he's inexperienced. It's a joke ON A NATIONAL STATION. Seriously makes me sick.
I'm not just gonna slag people off but in terms of broadcasting talent the best are....
Zane Lowe Chris Moyles Annie Mac Sara Cox Mary Anne Hobbs Mike Davis Huw Stephens Ras Kwami Westwood Trevor Nelson Fergie Rob da bank The Sunday surgery hosts Giles Peterson Annie Nightingale
THE WORST ARE... Dave Pearce Nemone Jo Whiley Scott Mills Judge Jules Steve Lamacq Spoony Vernon Kay

This is tricky; I hate so many of them. Scott Mills is an absolute idiot, although this is largely me having not forgiven him for listing two separate "interesting facts" somewhere in the late nineties, both of which were utterly wrong.
Colin and Edith, however, are minions of the antichrist. They truly are the epitome of smug, vacuous music snobbery. I hope they disappear up their own arses forever and never return.

I hate most of the main DJs. Chris Moyles is just a nob. Colin & Edith think far too much of themselves. JK & Joel are a joke, they belong on regional commercial radio, Scott Mills is a geek that thinks he's cool. Vernon Kay is a farce, I just want to slap him. He said once "I can't believe I'm playing a Girls Aloud record". Whatever, you're lucky to have the job mate. Yep, Radio 1 is full of wankers, I'll always love Sara Cox though.

Of all the options, Scott Mills is the only one I don't want to hunt down and murder, mostly because of the phone-in game 'Dead or in Manchester' they used to have on his show. I would really love for the Radio One DJs to do a slasher flick sketch for comic relief, except with actual death.
Although Scott Mills, too, gets on my nerves with his Flirt Divert thing - it's getting old now, and it's really just mean. The worst one was where some woman had given a guy the Flirt Divert number after having slept with him. What a cunt!

Definitely Chris Moyles, and there are enough reasons to fill a toilet roll. But the excruciatingly unfunny jingles, his insistence on talking over the beginning and end of all five songs he gets round to playing in a two-hour show, and the fact that he ran out of ideas in 1998 will suffice for now.

Colin and Edith. Horrible smugness and annoying accents, what a combination.

I voted Vernon as I only really listen to the radio on weekends and evening so now miss all the morning and daytime shows. I dislike Spoonyas well but at least he is passionate about music, not just his showbiz career and wife.
I really like Scott Mills and Sara Cox in small doses and after a longer period of loathing I have warmed to Zane Lowe. I used to really like Nemone too, but she's gone now.

Vernon Kaye pisses me off grand-style. He's such a stupid cunting wanker. He claims to know it all, to be the voice of somethingshitorother. And he's not. He's shit.
Compare his toss of a show to Sara Cox, who was discussing nose-strings sex last week. At least she has some wit about her.

There's no e on Kay, and even the BBC can't bloody spell his name right a lot of a time.

I can't beleive no one has mentioned Jo Whiley in terms of smugness. She is such a kiss-ass to "cool bands" and I totally hate the way she will dismiss pop songs until someone like the Arctic Monkeys does a cover of it in the live lounge and then it becomes cool to like it
She gets my vote. But also Colin and Edith - I hate them too!

I heard a rumour a couple of months ago which, if true, will mean that this is no longer a subject for debate. I heard that Spoony is leaving (to go to Five Live rather bizarrely) to be replaced by Reggie Yates and Ferne Cotton. The horror, the horror.

I'm amazed at the amount of people who listen to Radio 1. It just seems so completely redundant, especially now so many people can listen to their own radio-esque randomised playlists, podcasts, timeshifted radio from stations that aren't as shit, silence...
Oh, but I think Reggie Yates is a lovely man. So good luck to him.

It really was hard choosing just one...
I didn't vote for Colin and Edith because I quite like Edith... I rejoiced when Murray was shifted off to his own show. He's THE most arrogant, self-righteous man on the radio EVER. And that's saying something when Chris Moyles is about... I hate him just marginally less than Colin Bloody Murray. I think it's the way that he uses long, descriptive words in TOTALLY the wrong context all the bloody time...
But my vote had to go to JK and Joel. Choosing two DJs with identical voices for the same show is a bad enough decision but this pair of prats really are enough to make me want to cut my own ears off and put them in bleach. AAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!
(On a lighter note I like Scott Mills a lot!)

I do my best to never listen to Radio 1, but had the misfortune to hear a bit of Vernon Kay's show on Sunday morning. I was shocked at the terribility of the playlist. He is trapped in the 1990s.

Isn't being a cunt part of the selection process to be a Radio One DJ?
JK and Joel are, however, minions of the AntiChrist. They make Dick & Dom look like Fry and Laurie. In the event of Judgement Day, they are the ones on which the Almighty is going to show the least mercy.
