    • 24 September – Alan Freeman steps down from presenting Pick of the Pops, which was the original singles chart that was first broadcast on the BBC Light Programme.
    • 1 October – The first edition of a new Sunday teatime programme Solid Gold Sixty is broadcast on BBC Radio 1. Presented by Tom Browne, the programme consists of two hours featuring the Radio One playlist tracks which were not in the Top 20. It was followed by a one-hour Top 20 rundown from 6pm–7pm which was carried also on BBC Radio 2's FM transmitters.
  • 1975
    • 6 January – Broadcasting hours are reduced, due to budget cuts at the BBC. All evening programming stops on BBC Radio 1 and the station simulcasts BBC Radio 2 every evening from 7pm. Consequently, Sounds of the 70s ends and Bob Harris leaves the station for a while. Also, the weekday afternoon programme, presented by David Hamilton, is broadcast on both stations and John Peel's show is moved to the drivetime slot.
    • 11 January – Alan Freeman broadcasts a live performance by Pink Floyd which featured a performance of The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety. The performance was recorded at the Empire Pool on 16 November 1974.

For this, BBC Radio 1 uses BBC Radio 2's VHF/FM frequencies on weeknights again (having previously done so from October 1971 to December 1974, for shows hosted by Peel, Annie Nightingale and Bob Harris among others). This one-hour show on weeknights is the only time of the evening that BBC Radio 1 broadcasts its own programmes and the station now ends weekday transmissions an hour earlier at 6pm.

  • 1976
    • JAM Creative Productions of Dallas, Texas begins at 20-year relationship with BBC Radio 1 when it produces its first jingles package for the station.

    • 22 December – Industrial action at the BBC by the ABS union which started the previous day, extends to radio when the radio unions join their television counterparts by going on strike. It forces the BBC to merge its four national radio networks into one national radio station from 4pm named the BBC All Network Radio Service.
