    Mornin
    After a BH Monday and the 10 hour takeover Chris realises how Chappers and Daves show works. By being rubbish. And Chris uses his first song as part of his own 3 minute takeover.

    All Star Cup 2005
    Everyone, or almost everyone in the studio has seen it with an American team and a European team taking on each other starring a host of guests. Eurovision meets Golf as Terry Wogan commentates in Irish, and Bradley Walsh in Corkney. Whilst collecting for charity they give away £1 million as a prize fund in a competition but only £23,000 to charity. So our favourite team at Radio 1 are starting their own competition which deserves its own paragraph.

    Celebrity Hide And Seek
    Team Europe and Team American play for a hamper for charity whilst in a seperate competition - 'Be Your Own King for a Day' Denmark is being given away. It will take place in Disneyland Paris and on a stereotypical note, how hard is it to find an American?

    Crave Productions produce Celebrity Hide And Seek.
    JK and Joel commentating - Live. E4.
    Chuckle Brothers produce Hide And Seek Extra.
    Maybe With - Roy Walker, Johnathon Wilkes, Lisa Scott Lee, Patrick Moore.

    Team Europe WishList
    Cliff Richard
    Tony Blackburn/Pat Sharp/Clive Warren etc.
    Aled Jones
    Shane Lynch/Keith Duffy/Bewitched
    Ellen McArthur
    Peter Schmichael
    Cotton Palmer/Michel Ricketts
    Shaun Lloyd/Shirley Bassey

    During the show: Davina No, Pat Sharp Yes, Chuck Norris Yes, Tessa Sanderson Yes, Kevin Cosner Yes, Krankies Yes, Elvis Yes, Francis Rossi Yes.
    The American team was created via. a text.

    Compared to last weeks show this is the total opposite and therefore nothing much can be put down. It'll spoil the taste.

    Celebrity Hide And Seek Rules
    After the news Chris trys to clear this up a bit.
    Somebody hosts the show (Davina) with someone out in the field.
    A coin decides who hides first. The hiding team get to 100 to hide and then the hiders may not move until the opposing team arrives. There will be a sponsered lunchpak to eat whilst you are hiding. JK and Joel are bigging it up on the commentry.

    www.chrismoyles.i8.com is an unofficial dedicated site for Celebrity Hide And Seek.
    Celebrity Hide And Seek will be on the air before Christmas.

    A Big Announcement
    A guest known as Robbie Williams will be on the show next Monday with his new single. Robbie will be trapped in his own little world as Hide and Seek creeps up behind him until Chris snaps the idea on him. Chris then tells the girls not to be all over Robbie in a gown, Chris wants to do that job, presuming that someone else may take over the show. Out of everyone to complain that he's going to be on the show Monday, students.

    Rachels boyfriend has spotted someone in a Roy Walker T-Shirt
    Big Brother was the clue an it was Derek who was wearing the T-Shirt. Whether Roy W supports Conservitism, who knows?

    Chris lives with an ostrich / Ten Hour Takeover
    Chris cannot live with the ostrich cause the ostrich claims hes been out with Michelle Ryan and that girl off that 'Celebrity' show. If you'd like to catch the ostrich, go round Chappers house.
    Chris then reckons that the rules are different this year as he reckons he heard Aerosmith twice. Dave also almost blurts out he picked the songs (Which we all know were not picked by the people at Radio 1). Also during the air guitar sector they chose Feeder. Chris missed the song whilst filling up with petrol in Bath. I say Bath, you say B-ath. In Bath, Chris met a nice chap with a wide variety of vocal work within a few seconds.

    Who the f**k is Pete Docerty
    He is over-rated, but Chris likes the guy. Not much more to say. And because of that they quickly moved onto the Reading and Leeds festival. Slightly different Guess Who, its Chris's parents new friends.

    IM Presents
    Rachels confused and Chris writes the information as a kind of semaphore and means Rachel has gone and spent the shows money on more than she needed. After Fridays talk of Iron Maiden at the Reading Festival and have given Aled an Iron Maiden T-Shirt, jewels (keyring). They then find out Joss is very vague about what the team actually wanted from Iron Maiden and Joss kills the link. There is also an Iron Maiden DVD and CD for Aled to learn all about the Maidens and then show his knowledge off when he goes back to Aberstwyth. Small girls who are 16 can do Joss's job better than her. Chris gives Joss the way to celebrity book with numerous last year-die words which they think Americans still use - And probably do. Chris gets an extra-large T-Shirt whilst Eddie is on Aleds trousers. As Chris wants to continue the link Dom and Carrie have to rush into the studio for their presents, hands out to find Rachels first harvest of tomatoes. The tomatinks back (tomato based link).

    Rob DJ's Monday Night Pub Quiz
    Week 7?

    Q1 - What was the face value of the first British two-tone coin?
    Q2 - What does Pt stand for in the periodic table of elements?
    Q3 - Which is the only city in the world to touch two continents?
    Chris : Whats a continent?
    Dave : The opposite of a vowel.
    Chris : Is Dave incontinent?

    Q4 - Which bird has the biggest eyes?
    Rebecca Loos
    Q5 - If you fly in a Boeing 747 at 1000km/h, how long would it take to get to the moon?

    A1 - £2. Everyones a winner.
    A2 - Platinum - No-one.
    A3 - Istanbul - Dave scores.
    A4 - Ostrich - All bar Dom.
    A5 - 388 hours (16 days & 4 hours)

    Dave scores 3 and therefore could take the lead next week if he beats Carrie by 2.

    Good Morning
    First text of the day "Less of the Bank Holiday talk Moyles, its not a Bank Holiday in Scotland". That was sent in before the show had even started, poor Chris, even getting stick when he's off the air. He continues to say that people in Scotland should just take the day off on Monday anyway, pretend that they got caught up in all our Bank Holiday shenanigans that they completely forgot to go to work!

    Chris then fills us in on a few emails he's been getting from various people in Australia, and other countries. One saying "did Folk Face split up because they had nothing good to put in the Pod-Cast this week"...that didn't go down very well with the team, and another regarding the fake Roy Walker Legend t-shirt being sold on Ebay, which they quite rightly point out, is illegal. Another illegal product they point out is the Chris Moyles Parody album also being sold on Ebay, with various songs on there Chris has nothing to do with!

    Weekend Festivals
    The Redding and Leeds festival is on this weekend, and Chris eagerly asks Dom for some big news about the event, he doesn't seem to know anything major, which Chris is disappointed with, the seem to have given out all the news regarding the event already, so, Chris asks people to text Dom with any info they may have about the gig, what the weather is like, how many people are there, you know, all the important stuff.

    Four Months 'Till Christmas
    Apparently there isn't much planned for todays show, Chris tells us that on the notes Rachel has given him, it says its only 4 months until Christmas (actually, its quite scary, where has this year gone?), the conversation goes on into why we shouldn't merge Scotlands Bank Holidays with ours, and then have more days off. Even better, find any celebration, or any activity, and take is as a day off. Sounds like a plan to me. We then discover the people who live "Near" Chris (For Legal reasons) are actually not nhethmian (Lesbian), Dave starts digging a little hole for himself when his words about Lesbians are twisted by Chris and Rachel, funny stuff.

    Dukes of Hazard
    With 20 minutes to kill, Dom and Journalist Toby decided to sing the Dukes of Hazard theme tune, much to Dom's embarrassment, Chris has a copy, which he plans to play every 15 minutes until the end of the show.It was quite funny really, If I didn't know any better, I wouldn't really have spotted any difference, of course, that made it all the more embarrassing because it seemed like they were just trying TOO hard!

    Just before the News, Chris played a live version of Oasis' Wonderwall they recorded yesterday, I'm a fan of Oasis, and I really like listening to them live, this was a really good preformance
    I thought.

    More Festival Stuff
    They continue talking about the fesivals this weekend, Chirs tells us his mum and dad will be going, they have Access All Areas passed, lucky people, and they are looking forward to going. The team get various texts from various people asking them to do various stuff whilst at the festivals, including one which Rachel read out, she said go and see a band called "Parmesan", to which Chris said was a ridiculous name for a band. Quite right, until Rachel said that she had read it wrong, and actually meant "Parisman", which, I think is actually worse than the other one, but, never mind. Chris rubs in her mistake by reading out that also at the festivals are the Pooh Fighters, Queens of Leon. Razor Heavy, Kings of the Ice age,

    Gold Digger
    Kanye West has a new song, and a new album, not really my taste, but the team seem to like it, and they've randomly decided to give away copies of the album, all we have to do is phone in and tell them something about Kanye. The show today seems to be a very random mess of stuff, its funny, but it just seems a little out of control today. People text in with lots of different "facts", such as "Kanye eats sausage chips and beans before a gig", the winner of the competition was "Kanye west was named after the Grand Canyon, due to the unusual angular nature of his face. It was probably one of the best that they received to be fair, so I'm glad that one won.

    GCSE's
    The team decide to take a stab at some of the GCSE exam questions printed in a news paper today, well, Dave took a stab at them anyway to try and see if the questions are any easier now than they were when he was younger. After a few of the questions, they decided that the questions are harder. I remember my GCSE's, and yes, they were hard. It annoys me that people say they are getting easier, I really don't agree with that....anyway...on with the review.

    Magnets
    Aled has some fun magnets, I've played with these in a shop, and I can confirm that they are as fun as they were making out on the radio today. Dave doesnt seem too impressed at first though, but when Aled demonstrates the awsome power of these magnets (ok, maybe not awesome) he warms to them. Aled tells us about how they put one of the magnets in Rachels boyfriends pocket, and then using the other magnet, made him look like he had a boob forming! A very funny slip of the tongue from Rachel was next when she said "Dave, try it with my Pouch", that made me laugh. After playing with the magnets in Rachels pouch, Dave says its like Alien.

    Redding and Leeds Golden Hour
    Todays golden hour consisted of songs from artists who will be preforming at this weekends festivals, the team each gave a song that they would like to play, and Chris finished the hour with a song of his choice Kings of Leon - Red Morning Light, this closed the show for the weekend, and the team wont return until Tuesday morning due to the bank holiday. On Monday instead this week they have the 10 hour take over, so get you're requests for that in now, you know you want to.


    Tuesday 23rd August 2005 [Posted Friday, August 26 2005 by ChrisM]

    Mornin
    Chris literally starts the show on a high note even though he couldn't sleep last night. And you will notice that this is only half a review for the moment.

    Playlist
    1. McFly - I'll Be OK, 2. Bravery - Honest Mistake, 3. Junior Senior - Roc Da Beat, Move Ya Feet, 4. Daniel Powter - Bad Day, 5. Goldfrapp - Ooh La La, 6. Gwen Stafani - Rich Girl, 7.

Scissor Sisters - Comfortably Numb, 20. Coldplay - Fix You

    XFactor and Chelsea
    This next bit may sound like a mess, but so was the first part of the show.
    Chris is worried that the show XFactor may be rubbish and therefore Chris then goes onto the texts and links into the free One Life helpline. 'What am i talking about. I don't know.' (That was a quote.) So I ask myself should the show actually starts at 7:10? Basically they have nothing on their list to talk about as they ramble on two hours early.
    They talk about a list of successes in XFactor-style shows and move into Gareth Gates s..st..st..stutter. They also discover the way to be successful. Don't sleep with Jordan. As Dave wants his missus to go with Aled to take Chris's place at Jordans wedding and Chris explains the fundermental downfall.
    Maybe after 15 minutes the show may increase in importance, and basically read the tabloids.
    Robbie's football fanatism has made him buy a box at Chelsea even though hes either a Port Vale or Man U fan. Ant and Dec, Newcastle fans and some actress who... ?

    During the news Chris points out Laurence D'O. sounds like mate Brian Conelly and Dave realised he missed out on to going to watch Chitty Chitty Bang Bang even though it was on for a year, or maybe 9 months, but certainally months.
    These topics were as random as possible and confirmed for me when a texter put... You guys have no material or what!

    Security arrive with beer for the team and suddenly all is merry in camp. An idea arises to have a quiz based on the mornings show to see if Radio 1 presenters listen on the way to work. Unfortunatly the topics again went downhill from here. A Nottinghill bank holiday trail was played and therefore the next logical step is to talk about Donald Duck directing.

    Folk Face
    After the plentyful half hour or more of dribble Dave announces Folk Face want to do a version of Les Rhythms Digitales at Reading and Leeds, Radio 1 stage maybe. Chris also points out R1 dont want Chris, a guy from Leeds, at the Leeds festival but instead a girl from Scotland, and Bolton.

    Boobs. Maybe Something Better will turn up after the news.
    Directly after the Pub Quiz boobs were discussed again but not for long as the news had arrived. For more on boobs please see Wednesday 3RD August 2005 and Monday 20TH June 2005 reviews.
    After the news Chris booms out the main backing bed, sounding very much as a sorry for the above and ready to start the show again.
    The Quiz Questions have much aggro on the text and after understanding that the Happy Valley does have other sports but most famous for horses Rachel starts having a conversation with herself until she realises she hates horses and deciedes to change her stance.
    The La La La La La jingle is played.

    The next part isn't part of the show
    What Chris is subconsciously thinking - Lets tediously play todays show out. La la la.
    Sorry, just had to put that

    One Click - Wales
    Aleds in to talk about his new show and is avaliable with subtitles. And the first thing Chris points out is Aled being off mike. Or with a bin on its head. Aled, Aled, Aled, why? Chris points out that we already have Radio Wales/Cmyru. Avaliable anywhere in the Westcountry, on the frequency of local stations. Clips of Aled show hears words 'Comedy Dave', 'Everton & 'Rubbish'.
    Also 'Chris Moyles', 'Loves' & 'Rachels'. Although its clear what Aleds trying to say.
    We spend a whole hour and 50 minutes and suddenly I fall off my chair. This show is getting good. (Chris's show not Aleds).

    Half Hour Later
    Chris comes back to these words before the half hour of CPC after someone has sent a text arguing that the Welsh should be allowed English words like Cardiff and Total Network Solutions.

    Football On The BBC
    Being though Chris has participated in the trailer for BBC SPORT Chris has rights to talk about the ways of the campagin. To start with Chris didn't sound positivly/negitivly until '1,2,3,4'.

    What today reminds you of
    Chris is thinking back to this sort of time coming up with alsorts and Daves last idea - His Anniversary. Its lovely how the team have got Dave everything hes forgotten. According to the charts its the cotton years and Chris thinks about his favourite things: Cotton Underwear, Fern Cotton and Food.

    Usual Features
    A Game Of Two Halfs
    Not the usual competiton but still a Premiership match giveaway for Bolton fans.
    The tickets were given away to V.K. from Bolton during the news.

    Rob DJ's Monday Night Pub Quiz
    Finally this morning the quiz arrives. Week 6.

    Questions
    1. How many balls are used in a game of pool?
    Dave is drawing a triangle to insert balls to get a rough idea
    2. You were raking in your garden. You have 3 piles of leaves in your back garden and 6 in the front how many piles will you have when you put them together?
    You think were stupid
    3. What is the capital of Peru?
    4. Which sport will you be watching at the Happy Valley in Hong Kong?
    Eat my dust mother hubbards
    5. I go 1 mile South, 1 mile East and 1 miles North and I'm back where I started. Where am I?

    Answers
    1. 16 - All bar Chris
    2. 1 Pile - Everyone
    3. Lima - All bar Chris
    4. Horse Racing - All bar Chris
    5. North Pole - All bar Chris

    Everyone has a FULL HOUSE, apart from Chris.
    So Carrie is first with 22. Dave 20. Dom 19. Chris 17.

    Guess What

    Tedious Link
    Todays tedious link - INXS

    RAMBLE
    The ramble begins continuing Aled's Welsh Show. And Chris wants to say 'Shut Your Face' in Welsh for support. The 'Loves' from above was supposedly to be random. As well, on the show, Aled went to meet Aled Jones to show him, not to hit him for singing 'I'm Walking In The Air' (Technically he didn't sing on the film), but to show him Aled sings better than Aled. Round 1 - Walking In The Air, Round 2 - Is This The Way To Aberstwyth (in Welsh!).
    Continuing into the show numerous radio presenters created clips for the show trying to speak in Welsh. And therefore needs Chris's in Welsh. Obviously he wouldn't try to speak proper Welsh.
    Just think, the whole Welsh show in ten minutes. No need to listen.

    One Road Travel
    A92 is shut due to roadworks, long-term roadworks.

    Yesterdays Weather
    Warmest - Margate - 22 degrees
    Sunniest - Torquay - 9.1 hours
    Wettest - Saunton Sands - 29mm

    All hail the yesterdays weather. No pun intended.


    Thursday 25th August 2005 [Posted Thursday, August 25 2005 by chrisB]

Lost Prophets - DOA 19. Sugababes - Freak Like Me

    Barely a minute in, and Rachel already has had a good idea - although technically she had it last night. Since the team are always trying to wangle Friday off, why not just tape it instead - as Dave point out it'll be topical enough (who really listens to newsbeat anyway eh?) and it'll mean that the team get an extra day to add to their weekend. Result. Now all they need is someone willing to get into radio who they can bung (careful how you say that you dirty minded people) £50 a week. Who knows, if it goes well they'll just come in on a Monday and pre-record the whole weeks worth of shows.

    Folk Off and School Uniform

    Whilst plugging the Leeds & Reading Festivals this weekend, someone text in to Chris reminding him to big up Dave & Dom in their guise of Folkface who are playing at the weekend - a remix of the song from the dancing car advert entitled Donkey Kong. Dave said though that this wasn't necessarily the case, and he had a Folk Face announcement to do with Dom at 8 regarding this. Perhaps it's a remix of a different advert instead? There was a long 10 minutes to wait for all the Folkface fans before we would get to know.



    So, shortly after 8 Dom came in with the big reveal. Chris struggled to find the right backing music at first, Doctor Who, E.R. and Whacky Races were all selected at first, but Who Wants to be a Millionaire was finally selected as the music needed for such a massive occasion.

    To be honest, looking back the statement was all a blur, I tried to transcribe it - but the tears in my eyes and the frustration in my head prevented me from doing my reviewers duty. But the gist of it is this - Folkface are no more. They have split due to "musical differences but wont rule out a return to the stage at some point in the future". Dave may have a solo deal pending, but he can't talk about it for legal reasons, whilst Dom will be playing pubs in the south east for the time being. This also means that if you are going to one of the festivals this weekend, you may as well stay at home - there wont be any truly great bands that can match the might of "the face".

    Later on in the show, Aled distracted Chris by walking into the studio in full school uniform. He hadn't just come in from one of those night clubs where everyone thinks it's hilarious to dress up like they are at school, even though they are 45. It's actually because it's GCSE results day (and if you are getting your results today…don't panic) - and Aled really does look like a school boy, especially with freckles drawn on his face for the occasion…



    Chris wasn't getting out of it easily though, as Aled had helpfully brought in another school uniform for either Dave or Chris himself to ware to get into the GCSE spirit…

    Chris: But Aled, I'm not the same size as you
    Aled: Oh, no - this is a large
    Chris: Oh


    The day was proposed by Colin & Edith, and clearly Aled is getting into the spirit in full costume. Chris has to break it to him though that it was actually a wind up - as proof of none of the team actually wearing any uniform. Or was Chris actually joking himself. Sometimes it's too hard to tell.

    The real reason why Chris isn't wearing uniform is he'd only found out about it this morning - what a shame. But he said that if Jo Whiley came in a school girl outfit then he would only be too pleased to play the role of school boy - and with him being 24 it wasn't too long since he was last putting it on anyway.

    Lo and Behold…



    See the full pics at Radio 1 ONLINE here

    Other Stuff On Today's Show

    (*) Lost - Dom's never seen it, but reckons they're probably found rather than lost. None of the team can talk about it properly anyway as Dave is a week behind and Chris is a week ahead. Also all the American listeners have seen it anyway, so they'll be frustrated with "topical entertainment chat" that is a year old

    (*) Chris and Dave went to see the Dukes of Hazzard movie yesterday. They tried to sing the theme tune, but Dave doesn't remember it as well as he does the love boat one. Dave didn't like it - he thought they changed it too much. A good excuse to use a Jessica Simpson picture though. Unfortunately couldn't find one good enough that was available for publication on a family site, or that didn't let us steal the pics like the bbc do…



    She's on the right by the way. She's actually fitter than that, especially in the film.

    (*) Colin Murray couldn't say that newsreaders name, just like the team yesterday morning. I'm not even going to try to type it.

    (*) Reading & Leeds festivals this weekend, and Chris and Dave unsuccessfully try to work out which bands play which days. There was also a "Beat the Intro" comp to win tickets. That was pretty bog standard and hardly worth reviewing.

    Tedious Link

    All Saints - Never Ever - as well as being a popular girlband from the 90's, All Saints is a popular name for a church - Church, first name Charlotte is dating spikey-haired rugby star Gavin Henson - Gavin Henson shares the same surname as Jim Henson who created the Muppets - Muppets is the collective name for the characters Kirmit the Frog, Miss Piggy and Gonzo - Gonzo is the name of a show on MTV hosted by Zane Lowe - Zane Lowe is from New Zealand, as is Daniel Beddingfield - Daniel Beddingfield shares the same initials as Dave Bellemy, who in turn shares the same surname as Craig Bellemy - Craig Bellemy has a tattoo on his arm, as has Lenny Kravitz - Lenny Kravitz used to date Nicole Kidman and Nicole Kidman used to be married to Tom Cruise - Tom Cruise starred in "Risky Business" alongside Rebecca Demornay - Demornay is a type of sauce which is served with cod - cod is a type of fish - fish is often found on the menu in Wales and Wales is a country that has given us many good bands over the years, one of the most consistant being Feeder which links us to Feeder - Come Back Around

    Mini-Moyles Update



    Chris Moyles will be getting ready for his Bank Holiday weekend, which starts tomorrow at 10.01am. Hell also be watching last nights Lost, like much of the rest of the team.
    Dave will be sleeping and having dinner. Carrie might be running, playing tennis, or doing nothing. Aleds off to a birthday party and Rachel will be harvesting some tomatoes which she might bring in tomorrow! Dom will be recovering from the Folk Face news.

    Before we begin…

    Kids, today’s show was a bit disjointed, I thought, and (much as it pains me to say this) even a little bit boring. My mind kept wandering, and much as I’d love to regale you all with a review full of those wanderings, they’d be fairly irrelevant. For example, I spent a lot of time thinking about my Frank Sinatra cross-stitch, and the new heating element that we had put in our boiler yesterday. See, you just don’t care do you?

    It just didn’t seem like there was much of a plan in place for today’s show, and the usual team banter didn’t do it for me – there just wasn’t that much notable amusingness. Oh, and that Kaiser Chefs song isn’t funny either. But hell, I still love the Chris Moyles Breakfast Show, much like I will love my own firstborn child, but without the placenta. So here are the bits that I enjoyed from today…


    Guess Who

    Dominic saw Goldie in High Wycombe or wherever he lives. He was “really cool, on the High Street, on the phone, with his teeth”. Chris suggested that Goldie sounds a bit like a male Rachel. I think Goldie is a bit ominous, but he was a rubbish villain in Eastenders, worse than Johnny Allen, and he’s terrible.

    Dave saw on Callum Best on the streets of London. He was probably trying to sleep with someone. Callum Best, not Dave, he’s married, he had an anniversary and everything. Most amusing was this section:

    Carrie: Does this person have a son who played football?
    Dave: No, quite the opposite.
    Dom: Does this person have a son who didn’t play football?

    “Bruce Grobelaar” ordered a hot beef and onion roll and a portion of chips from Longman. However, Longman himself never actually saw him, and this unconfirmed sighting came from the woman working behind the counter who said that he “looked a bit like him”.


    Men and women sending in photos of themselves

    Further to the team receiving a picture of Longman with a “fan” at the V Festival, and Carrie being distressed by the low-slung nature of his slacks, conversation turned to attractiveness and photos and things.

    Some bird sent Chris a picture of herself and asked him to support her entry into some “Miss Something” competition. Chris and Dave went on to debate how attractive aforementioned woman was. Discussion abounded on the attractiveness of various women who had sent pictures to the show.

    Later in the show Chris, in the interest of fairness to the female team members, invited male listeners to send in pictures of themselves. Rachel and Carrie were universally unimpressed by the calibre of the snaps, as they usually are when things like this happen.

    Pretty much exactly like the “Mr/Miss Chris Moyles Breakfast Show” feature that was run a few months ago, then, and pretty much as mildly unfunny and radio-unfriendly as it was then. Ho-hum.


    Car Park Catchphrase

    Chris the lycra-wearing dancing man and physicist from Stoke versus Kate the “visual merchandiser” (window dresser, then) from Chichester.

    Kate got “wiping the slate clean” because Chris thought she sounded cute. Chris the dancing man got “pull the other one”.

    And then, all of a sudden, Chris had to pack it all in and invite the kids back on tomorrow because they’d run out of time. What a load of gubbins.


    Other Things

    Chris: “I went for a little Italian last night… the little bugger got away from me.”

    Dave on some 80’s test-card music (i.e. what the BBC put on if something goes buggered up) that they played after Dom’s travel: “It’s mood electro-funk, idiot”. Dom responded to more of the music with “I love this, this is fresh”.

    Carrie rushing in to take part in “Guess Who”: “Sorry I was on the loo I’m just doing my trousers up”

    Chris on “Louis Armstrong” doing the promotion of the Radio 1 Advice Line, for ages, being only marginally funny: “I like that, but I think we’ve done it now, really”.

    Chris doing some weird hybrid of Barry White and Louis Armstrong, in the bit after James Blunt sings his unnecessary first line in “Beautiful”: “You pipe down James, we ain’t got no time for none of your singing just yet. Now, for all the ladies in the audience, here’s one just for you…”

    “Louis Armstrong” on Dom’s rhyming travel news: “I have to say your rhyme was fine, you should do that all the time”

    I am tremendously amused by the title of that song that’s used in the advert with your dancing car, that punnery is like woah. And also, “Unconditional” is by far the best single that The Bravery have released, don’t you all think? Good.

    "A Thursday reviewer, doing a review on a Monday?" I hear two of you cry. Well don't worry you two, it's a one week only special offer, while Adam gets up to date and that. Anyway on with the review.

    "Please…Please…Please Simon Please"
    "Sing 'em a song Della"


    Chris starts the show off with a bit of the X-factor. We all know he's got it, but ITV have just started the first in "a 112 week run". It's truly great TV though, I have to agree. Chris puts it perfectly, the audition stages are the best with "those freaks who try so hard to entertain on a Saturday night, it's almost cringeworthy. Anyway, enough about Louis Walsh". Poor old Louis, they can't even big him up on his own show - the best they could come up with was Girls Aloud, which as Chris helpfully pointed out were formed as part of a reality show in the first place!



    The most amusing contestant for the team, was the dairy farmer ("more like fairy farmer") who failed the first audition, then managed to get through on the second attempt when at Louis' request came back in a dress. I can't imagine Louis going for anything like that though…can you? *cough*

    More Butlins Fun

    Chris thinks that some of the people who were at Butlins with them over the weekend should have been on X-factor, which Dave thinks is a little unfair since quite a few of them had good voices. Chris didn't mean the participants though, more the people who came to watch the stage show - most of them "looked like the night of the living dead", so perfect to go with the inventor who thinks he's resurrected John Lennon and the fairy dairy farmer then.

    The crowd really were that bad apparently, although I'm sure that it wouldn't have helped that half of the crowd there didn't even know who "Chris Moyles" was. The crowd were so entertained that at one point Dave cracked up laughing mid-link as a woman right in front of them let out a massive yawn. She must have been having the holiday of a lifetime.

    Everyone has been coming up and laughing at Chris this weekend, asking how Butlins was. Although their intentions may have been cruel, Chris seemed to have had a genuinely good time. He was naturally annoyed at how the redcoats had complained at the Hi-di-hi jokes all week though; after all it's only a bit of a laugh. Still, they weren't having any of it and told him to cut it out, which is a bit rich as "some would say you've had a free bloody advert on national radio all week". To be fair though, the woman who was giving them grief was in all likelihood getting in the neck herself from the bosses higher up in Butlins, and Chris feels a bit sorry for her. The crowd at Butlins love all the hi-di-hi stuff so his advice is for them to bring all that back, then they might get a few more customers in the door. In fact it was the only thing that got a response at the karaoke night!



    Chris had to say something nice about Butlins though - the spa "was mega" Dave said, and Rachel was so impressed with it that "when you're in there, you almost forget where you are". One for the front of next year's brochure there.

    Football Fun as Thierry Henry Speaks French!

    2 games played for Chelsea this season, two lucky escapes. Except fans like Carrie are just deluding themselves thinking that's the way how champions win, rather than the way crap teams win. Leeds used to score goals like Chelsea have over the past two games, so if I were Carrie I'd be worried.

    It was good news all around for the teams…err…teams this week then, as they all won - yep even Leeds. Chris is getting a bit stressed with the Championship now - he needs to see premiership action as soon as possible. He can't even begin to understand how Rachel feels supporting Kidderminster.

    Rachel: Well, the only way is up
    Dave: It is when you're in the conference, you can't go any lower
    [Laughs as Chris Plays Jingle]


    Thierry Henry was making the Chelsea players laugh before the big game yesterday in the tunnel on Sky, which Chris thinks is probably some kind of saucy gag to lighten the mood between them. The commentators obviously haven't seen this, describing the atmosphere in the tunnel as one, which is hardened and tense.



    Thierry was probably asking Chelsea if they wanted a bit of Va-Va-Voom, which prompted Dave to ask who the heck is the famous "bobby" anyway. Chris said he'd heard it's Henry's wife, but now expects 500 text messages correcting him from all the smart-arses with credit to waste texting Radio 1.

    Bobby Ewing and Bobby Davro were some of the suggestions on the text, but the overwhelming response is Bobby Pirez, who was in the first advert so I guess that would make sense. Now that is solved, Dave has a new conundrum. Why is Thierry, who as far as Dave is aware, speaks fluent French asking someone else what "the French for Va Va Voom" is? Chris doesn't know - he's still laughing at Bobby Davro. At least someone is.

    Other Stuff On Today's Show

    (*) Chris thinks Kelly Holmes should stop "bigging herself up". She won two medals. Woop-de-do. She should stop going on about it now. Sorry - how many sporting medals do you have Chris?! Although he does also think Steve Redgrave is dull, which I can agree with so I forgive him. Sports Personality…ha that was a joke the year he won that.

    (*) Clips from the Kareoke on Thursday night, which I'm sure were played on Friday's show. Still, gives me an excuse to post this picture which looks like Dom and Carrie doing stand up comedy. "Err..no, no, no, no errr, no"



    (*) You may have seen Chris on the BBC football advert over the weekend. During filming he said that Colin whacked the ball in his "Davina Mcall's" which at the time the director thought was brilliant. However they didn't use it…probably didn't have the balls.

    (*) Chris is on another fitness drive. Bets now open to how long that will last. Moderation in Moderation folks.

    (*) Aled is doing his first ever Radio 1 Show solo. Tune in, in the middle of the night tomorrow if you speak welsh.

    (*) Rachel has been growing her own tomatoes and sampled her first produce at the weekend. Aww Bless. After the success (what?) of the text poll last time this was mentioned - they wasted more time by doing another one. Jonny Vaughn is crapping himself.

    Tedious Link

    Cliff Richard - Summer Holiday - Cliff Richards is mates with Sue Barker - Sue Barker shares the same last name as Ronnie Barker who starred in 'Open All Hours' alongside David Jason who went on to do 'Only Fools & Horses' and 'A Touch Of Frost' - Frost, first name Jenny used to be in Atomic Kitten alongside Natasha Hamilton who has a baby with Celebrity Love Island Star Fran Cosgrave - Fran Cosgrave shares initials with Frank Carson and Fearn Cotton - Fearn Cotton and Reggie Yates present Top Of The Pops and have just been signed up to present on Radio 1 - Radio 1 is now truly global and broadcasts live around the world - the world is another way of describing planet Earth - Planet Earth was the first single for Duran Duran - Duran Duran are fronted by Mr Simon Le Bon - Bon in French means good, whilst Bonbon is actually a sweet - 'Life Is Sweet' was a 1995 hit for the Chemical Brothers - The Chemical Brothers have collaborated with many artists over the years such as Noel Gallagher who provided the vocals on 'Let Forever Be' which links us to Chemical Brothers - 'Let Forever Be'

    Mini-Moyles Update



    Chris is going to challenge a fellow Radio 1 DJ to play some video games, and will then be trying to start his new get healthy regime.
    Dave is going to tidy his spare room. Its his favourite room in the house.
    Dom is going the gym and is aiming to run 6 miles. Carrie and Rachel are meeting up for a run as well. Aled is going to the doctors and Jocelin has got some ironing to do

    Mint, Mint, Mint. Chris plays Big Brother finale and takes the piss out of Anthony and said that if he said that in normal life he would put in a mental hospital. To celebrate the fact he won the show, he wont be on. This is due to him signing a exclusivity deal. He wanted to come on but the twat signed something. Dave said Anthony came across as an arse on the live finale. Dave said that when you all the housemates lined up, he thought he never ever saw so many irritating people in one place. It confirmed to him what he had thought that he hated the vast majority of them. Daves favourite was Eugene out of the final four. Dave said it was foot through television on Friday. Chris asked people to text in who they thought was the most annoying.
    Chris talked to Carrie after the news because she was on the "Around the Grounds" on BBCi on Saturday afternoon covering the Huddersfield VS Swansea match. Chris said she was outrageously flirting with Ray Stubbs. Chris said it sounded as if she was doing it in front of a riot. It was her first go at it. Chris mentioned Aled appeared on the television on Sunday. They asked Chris last week at BBLB if he wanted to DJ at the Big Brother Barbecue on Sunday but he turned them down, they asked Aled and of course he accepted. Dominic said it was Car Crash telly with Aled in the loft wearing his Roy Walker Tshirt. The text vote wasnt conclusive but Dave hated Maxwell for his cap and his rolling tongue. Chris said that Saskia looked embarrassed to be with him. Dave said he seemed to change to an ordinary likeable person to a Cockney moron.
    Chris had a good weekend as he watched the Wigan Chelsea match in the pub. Chris saw the first half of Everton game, which they lost 2-0 to Man Utd. Chris mentioned James Beattie not even being touched and going off injured. He compared this to an Everton player who got a rifled shot from Neville straight in the groin who fell to the ground and just got back up and played on. Dave said that Ruud Van Nistlerooys backward dive in the penalty area was even more laughable.
    Before half 7 and Eugene is already there sitting in studio 2 with engineers. He was doing other interviews with local radio stations. Chris wanted to have Eugene on for the whole 3 hours but Rachel said only if he could make the tea or something like that. It is kind of funny listening to One Life Exams advert without the gurning voice of Emma B.
    Chris thought Davina was great on Friday night, but then he would as he wants to get into her knickers, she should have worn black though. Chris said that Joceyln doesnt watch Big Brother and they shouldve said Makosi was in the reception.
    Chris bought a WEBCAM, thats right folks, the geek within coming through. Dave sounded so disappointed.

    Dave - Why on earth would you need a webcam
    Chris - Im talking to my mate on Friday, my mate pops up on this MSN chat thing that you have where you can talk to people and all of a sudden I can see him and hes got a little webcam and im like "How nerdy and brilliant is that?" I can see him. He says to me you got to get yourself one and said that he'd get me one and all I would have to do is pay him so he went to Where in the World, bought it then dropped it off at mine, plugged it in and there you go. I havent actually got anyone to talk to on it but I waved at myself
    Dom - Thats tragic
    Dave - How deeply sad
    Chris - I know, i bought a webcam and the only person i speak to about it is obviously the guy who bought it for me (shouts) SIMON and Aled, cos hes into that kind of thing though i dont think we share the same kind of webcam interests
    Dom - Different hobbies
    Dave - I would advise you dont spend your nights talking to Aled on the webcam
    Chris - But seriously, I dont know what to do with it. It'd be alright talking to your (dave) sister in Australia.
    Dave - Leave my sister alone, she hasnt got a webcam anyway
    Chris - Actually i bought her one, where do i go, what do i do with it. I want to go on that site that Dirty Den went on, wear a pair of glasses...
    Dom/Carrie - No no
    Chris - No, cos the BBC back you up, they allow you to do it
    Dom - The best place you can go is back to the shop with it probably i wouldve thought
    Chris - Well im gonna invite my listeners to some webcam fun
    Dave - Hey the next thing youll be doing is going all Phil Mitchell, and all sorts of funny things at the weekend
    Chris - What does that mean?
    Dom - Umm youll be in Eastenders

    Chris and Dave talked more about Big Brother including Sam giggling to Davina about meeting men off porn sites and how they play themselves when they leave the house mentioning Science. James Blunt still number one.

    BB ALED
    Aled said there was a traffic jam so he missed most of the show so he got someone to put the mobile phone up to the telly so he could hear.
    VOTE BREAKDOWN
    Kinga - 3.8%
    Makosi - 8.7%
    --------------------------
    Eugene - 42.7%
    Anthony 57.3%
    Those votes just between the last two are out of 100%

    Aled did his usual giving presents to people. Anthony was given Aleds phone number, which he left behind, although it was the flirt divert number. Kinga made no reaction to a wine bottle and Makosi got some Cherry Tango and a box of condoms. Aled asked them a ROB DJ Pub Quiz. They do the usual "We have supported you" question. Kinga got him confused with Johnny Vegas.
    The chat goes back to Webcam talk and Dave said that Chris is turning into a Social Outcast. Chris next trip is to Butlins in Skegness, chosen by Fergus Dudley. The last trip was going on a barge in a canal. Chris played the Hi Di Hi xylophone music. Chris said that Fergus should be sacked. Dave said that he cant wait for Autumn. Chris Moyles Karaoke comes to Skegness on Thursday night. Chris had 20 tickets to give away. Chris is thinking of chucking Aled in the pool with the added incentive that Aled cant swim.

    Dave - Id quite fancy Earthsong by Michael Jackson on the karaoke
    Chris - Do you?
    Dave - "Heal the World"
    Chris - Thats Heal the World, Dave, work on it
    Dave - Oh Yeah

    Eugene Interview Snippets

    Eugene has met Chris twice, one at a Brighton Student radio event in 1999 and at the Capital 30th Birthday bash. He thinks he has a picture of Eugene and Chris.
    Eugene loves Terry Wogan more than Chris. Eugene said it was because that its because of the older music. He also had a radio that was crap at University so couldnt get past 96 on the dial.
    Eugene is possibly the only one interested in Sirius and knows what it is. Eugene said he was talking about the pros and cons between DAB and Satellite Radio.
    Eugene did get a guided tour of the new studio but was surprised about the desk moving. Chris stands up whilst doing the show and Dave always sits down.
    Eugene is 6 foot 4 or 193 centimetres.
    Eugene has got over the guilt of taking the £50,000. In the hotel he was staying at, a magistrate and his wife said that he did the right thing. He said that they talked a while about washing machines later.
    Chris asked Eugene if he was doing anything on Thursday night and invited him to the karaoke night. They said he was asked to do Tainted Love at the bar called the "Stagger Inn" because the DJ's said he looked like Marc Almond which the crew laughed at because he looks nothing like him. Dave said he looked more like Smokey Robinson. So Eugene went on the internet and got all the lyrics to Tainted Love and learnt them and learnt them and learnt them, only for Chris to say he didnt need to because the beauty of karaoke was that the lyrics appear on the screen.

    Daves Tedious Link Flaws
    * Alexandria is not the capital of Egypt, it is Cairo

    LETS GET READY TO RAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBBBBBBBBBBBLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
    Chris does his Terry Wogan impression and Dave comes in and does his bad Ken Bruce impression. Rob DJ asked Eugene how tall the mast is at Huddersfield for the Radio 1 transmitter. Eugene has been at the Crystal Palace transmitter, he said that they use less electricity than the local swimming pool. Chris asked the quiz question about the bat and the ball from the post show interview with Aled. This was the question

    Q. A bat and a ball costs £1.10. The bat is a pound dearer than the ball. How much is the ball?
    Eugene guessed 10p but he was wrong

    Eugene wants to carry on with his flying lessons. He wants to concentrate on his amateur radio. It is the hobby of communications through electronics. Its like CB but much more impressive and you get to talk to people all over the world. Chris said that his lifestyle will change and he will be going out to China Whites. Eugene said no, his friends are important. Chris reckoned he would be good on a television phone in. Chris said he would be the new Johnny Ball. Eugene likes Adam Hart Davis, that fella that does the BBC2 shows that nerds watch.
    Chris asked if Eugene would go on Terrys show. He said that hes had letters Eugene wanted to push some of the instant replay buttons. Chris said that he learnt it quicker than Dominic. Eugene mentioned that a Spurs player did a Eugene sign when he scored on Saturday. Chris said that he was better than some of the weekend team. Eugene mentioned Kinga trying a singing career. Chris said she would be good at Instrumentals. Chris said that girls will be falling for Eugene. He got a lot of older fans because he was sensible. We also learnt that if you leave the fridge door open the room will get warmer.
    Eugene talked bout his presents. He gave Chris some Vodka Shots, tea and bourbon creams.

    CARPARK CATCHPHRASE
    Line 1 - Bit of a twat. Russell from Gillingham, a refridgetor engineer. Ivor Biggun comes from there according to Roy Walker. He is driving a Vauxhall Combo, a white van man.
    Line 2 - Andrea from Tintadgell who is a giggly student studying law. I hate giggly students, unless theyre laughing at my jokes and think im great. Ben Dover comes from there according to Roy Walker. She is driving a Ford Fiesta.
    The Catchphrases were
    1. Dont Rock The Boat
    2. Full Of Beans
    3. On the Road to Ruin
    Winner Russell. Andrea thought it was On the Road to Rwanda.

    We're In Butlins
    Good morning resort enjoyers...not campers. Today, for part of the final "Radio 1 Summer Friday Thing" the crew are in Butlins Skegness. For the begining of the show, they are still in their apartments, so they have to keep their voices down a little. Anyone else think Chris' voice sounded a little on the rough side? Probably from all the Karaoke they were doing last night. Which they said they all enjoyed. We learn about Dom's antics from last night, hanging out of his window "getting some air" whilst he was drunk! The team reminisce about their adventures up the Skegness, and discuss their competition to see how many famous Rogers they could name whilst communicating on Walkie-Talkies.They continue to discuss events that went on last night, including a drinking session at the pub, Aleds Stone Massage, and Dave's Dance Lessons with Billy Bear.

    Dom randomly went to the window and shouted "Good Morning Guests", and "Tune In At 8 O'clock For Yesterdays Weather" which was actually pretty funny, because random guests started going to their windows to see what was going on. Funny Stuff.

    The Cold Water Bucket Shower
    A bucket of cold water poured on you after being in a hot tub, sounds horrible to me, but apparently very refreshing, and invigorating. So the team all had a go on it, and they recorded each others reactions, Daves one was played first, he didn't make a sound, well done him! The rest will be played later in the show, and they assure us that they all make noise!

    In order from quietest to loudest, they play the next set of recordings from people in the shower, Chris is next up, a little noise, more of a yelp. Natasha had a proper mouse like squeal going on, following that was Jocelin, making another loud squeal. Up next was Dom, we only hear a "Aaah" because his words after that are aparently unsuitable for broadcast! Following Dom was Aled, his scream sounded as if he was being murdered almost. Carrie was next, and she let out a very lady like scream, you felt her pain. And finally, we had Rachel, her was definitely the loudest, forget Aleds murdering scream, poor Rachel has the knife in her here.

    Summer Shuffle 1
    Becks from Boston (near Skegness, not America) was todays caller, and she chose todays Summer Shuffle track which was Dolly Parton - 9 to 5. There were quite a few good ones before it, such as Greenday - Basket Case, or Daft Punk - One More Time. Oh well, Dolly will have to do, is it just me who cant help but smile in a cringe worthy way whenever I hear this song?

    In the Skyline
    Not the car, but the main Butlins tent of course (how funny am I seriously). So the team have now take a quick road trip in a buggy to the Main tent for the rest of the show. They all come onto the stage, and Dave and Chris have red coats on. Did anybody else think Dave was slightly shouting a bit whenever he was talking? I just thought it was odd. Anyway, they invited Moggy (one of the "stars" of the Karaoke last night") up on stage, they play him a small clip oh his rendition of Bonnie Tylers - Total Eclipse of the Heart, which was quite funny, and then he played a clip of Rachel and Dave singing that classic "I Had The Time Of My Life". It really sounded like they had a good time last night.

    Do The Billy
    It's Dave's big moment, yesterday he was being trained by Carla and Billy Bear to do the Billy Bear Song, and now it was his time to perform it to the Nation! So we have Dave, in full Red Coat/Panto mode, doing the whole "you have to be louder than that" thing to get Billy Bear out. Once he was out, the music started, and off they went, Dancing away, I'd have loved to watch this, and I hope a video of it is posted on the BBC website ASAP. For those of you who listen again, and want to sing along to the classic here are the lyrics...

    Do the Billy, The Billy walk,
    Come on everybody do the, Billy walk.
    You can move, and groove and do it,
    Billy's here, and dancin' to it.
    He's the bear, loved by all the nation,
    Watch him move, he's the new sensation.

    So do the Billy, The Billy walk,
    Come on everybody do the, Billy walk.
    Do the Billy, The Billy walk,
    Everyone can do it its the, Billy walk.

    He wants to be a Red Coat, when he's older.
    So he can dance, and sing all over.
    He's the bear, who's gone for super-stardom,
    Soon the world, will be coming too.

    So do the Billy, The Billy walk,
    Come on everybody do the, Billy walk.
    .
    Do the Billy, The Billy walk.


    Well done Dave, he even managed a bit of singing through out that, as well as the dancing. Well done.

    Energetic Red Coats
    If you've ever been to Butlins, then like me, you'll know how creepy Red Coats actually are, they really are always happy, and dancing, and energetic. Not that I'm getting at them or anything, well done to them, its their job, but I just coulnt manage to stay that happy for so long. So Chris comments on how great they've been, saying how most of the "woos" and cheers are coming from them. Well done to you all.

    Pingu and Pantos
    Pingu is there, plenty "Waa Waas" going on from Chris, and Aled is with him, he says Pingu is disturbing, and that he waddles, Dave quickly says "Well he is a penguin", and then continues to get Aled to give Pingu a cuddle. After a big aww, Chris seals his fate as a Red Coat with the following Joke..."What would Pingu drink?......A Pingu Colada!"...oh dear! They then discuss how the show today is like being back in the 90s when they did road shows, Chris says its like a road show, a panto, and a nightmare all rolled into one!

    Summer Shuffle 2
    This next song was chosen by one of the Red Coats, Kim, from Walsall in Birmingham, she chose Michael Jacksons - Blame It On The Boogie, a much more summery song than the last one. Of course, she knew all the dance moves for it, as did the other Red Coats, and they continued to dance through out the whole song...see, they're creepy.

    Go Carting and Good byes
    Dave and Dom went go karting, all geared (hah) up and ready to go for it, they went, and when they arrived, realized that all the competition were 7 year old children. Still, they raced, everyone proceded to lap Dom, and a little girl even managed to bump him off the track. He then had to be rescued by the marshals, oh the shame Dom. With a classic Oasis song, All around the world playing us out, Chris thanked Butlins for having them, and everyone else whilst he was at it too. A good end to a pretty god show I thought today.

    Chris is nervous today, and not because it's A-level results day - oh no. He's expecting a very important phone call today after "the result" last night (that's football for those of you like me who couldn't give a crap). He's the obvious choice, as the FA will want to go for a true Englishman this time around, as well as somebody who is relatively unknown for that surprise factor. Although it would show how fickle football really is if England sacked their manager because they lost a friendly, but that's just me…



    Chris then promised to ban football from the show, so as not to alienate all the football fans. Naturally this meant that he chatted about football for the next 15 minutes. Hopefully they'll be getting Sven on the show when he's been evicted fired from his job - first getting in interview with him at the press conference with "International Football Aled".

    Skegness/Kareoke fun

    As you may have heard, the team are off to good old Skeggy tonight in preparation for tomorrow's Summer Friday Thing. Although Dave was a bit weary at first, he'd heard good things about the Butlins there from his taxi driver this morning, as it was where he lost his virginity. Chris was naturally concerned about this and said he'll have a look in the lost and found tomorrow.

    The team naturally sound really excited by the prospect of their trip out, especially after the rip roaring success of them on a barge and Colin & Edith at St. Andrews. Chris has an idea to make the Friday Thing even better for next year though, to cater for the stations richer listeners who go to Dubai, Miami etc. Perhaps even a trip round the world like on the National Lottery Jet Set - of course they'd have to take some listeners to justify it but they could defiantly make it work.



    Carrie can't wait to get there so she can enjoy the Spa, although disappointingly not the chain of local shops. Dom however has never been to a camp like this before so he's just looking forward to arriving. The team have also been told to bring their swimwear for the trip, because there is a "cold shower scinario", as Dave calls it. This involves a rope and a bucket full of cold water, although this just sounds like Butlins being extremely cheap and not bothering to install modern body cleaning facilities.

    Dave will become a redcoat later today at the resort, following in the footsteps of such famous success stories as Shane Richie and….errm… Michael Barrymore. Originally the team were going to pick Aled for the task, but he would probably have enjoyed it too much so Dave has been picked.

    As part of his duties Dave will have to do the "Billy Walk" with Butlins mascot Billy the bear, who looks like this,



    He's clearly the new sensation across the nation, and Dave will be performing a wonderful dance routine in front of lots of happy holiday makers tomorrow morning - as well as millions of sleepy listeners on national radio. I bet he can't wait. There was a special preview this morning as Dave rehearsed the legendary song, although he didn't sound like he was trying too hard - the redcoats wont stand for that tomorrow, so he'll have to buck his ideas up if he want to impress the mighty Billy.

    Other Stuff On Today's Show

    (*) The return of the football ticket giveaway. YES!!!!!!!

    (*) Even better than that…Karaoke Tickets Giveaway!!!!

    (*) Exam results talk - if you didn't do too well then don't worry, One Life can help along with Scott Mills and his best Tony Blair impression. If you did do well, then congratulations to you.

    (*) Chris had a guess who - but it was the shortest one ever as Dave guessed it straight away. It was Ricky "Extras" Gervais

    (*) A new parody - this time the Kaiser Chiefs get the Moyles treatment. Don't worry if you missed out, it's on the message board. Just click here

    Tedious Link

    Foo Fighters - Everlong - The drummer from the Foo Fighters is called Taylor - Taylor is the surname that links 3 of the original members of Duran Duran even though none of them are actually related - if you swap the first letter of related for a 'b' you get belated which is associated with greeting cards which are late - late has the general meaning of the word 'tardy' - tardy rhymes with mardy which is another word for grumpy - Grumpy is one of the 7 dwarfs that hung out with Snow White - Snow White shares the same last name as Jimmy White who recently changed his surname to Brown as part of a corporate promotion for a well known brand of sauce - Sauce featuring Candy Statton had a big hit with "You Got The Love" - "Love Me Tender" was a hit for Elvis Presley who shared a surname with Pricilla Presley who starred in the Naked Gun movies alongside Leslie Neilson - Leslie Neilson shares the same Christian name as Leslie Grantham who has a webcam like Chris Moyles - Chris Moyles has met lots of famous personalities over the years including Mark Owen and Robbie Williams who used to be in a band called Take That which links us to Take That - Back For Good.

    Mini-Moyles Update



    There was no Mini-Moyles update today - the team are too busy at butlins I bet, so this is basically just using up precious review page space.

    Reasonably rude, and only marginally amusing

    I never listen to Nemone. I find her both too early, and too frightening, to let her in my ears. This morning, it seems, her show featured a “maths debate”. Look how funny that is, no really, it’s funny, ha ha.

    Anyway, Chris and the team started the show with various similar innuendoes, inspired by Nemone’s genius. They began with the fairly unfunny suggestion of a feature called “I’d do her” and culminated with a fairly funny wordplay around everyone’s favourite phrase for the lady garden, apart of course from “lady garden” itself – beef curtains. Dominic was audibly amused by the concept of “sausage drapes”. It was rude, but was it funny? Well, sporadically, at best. Boo.

    Karaoke

    At around 8.30am, Dave suggested that, in preparation for their jaunt to Skegness Butlins, the team ought to warm up with a little light karaoke. And lo, it was funny.

    First out of the blocks were Chris and Dominic, who came together in musical synergy for their own special version of Bono and Paul McCartney’s Live 8 “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”. Chris sang his part like Macca had done at Live 8 (i.e. sounding like a high-pitched, sandpaper-throated, middle-aged man being tunefully strangled), and Dom sounded thoroughly embarrassed at covering his idol’s vocal.

    Dom was then first to go it alone, with his version of “I’ll Get By With A Little Help From My Friends”. It was beautiful. Dom has a very nice voice, a little bit like a slightly effeminate male A-Level student, singing in the school play that he’s only got himself involved in because he wants to kiss the female lead, in a “Gregory’s Girl” kind of way. I liked it. Especially when he got himself into the chorus too high and had to drop an octave, or whatever it is.

    Carrie went in next with Britney Spears’ “Toxic”, which again was very good. It brought to mind images of a general late 20s woman, little bit drunk, Lambrusco in hand, singing away and maybe doing some embarrassing arms-aloft dancing, whilst trying to make seductive eye-contact with the male gym-bunny standing in the corner, who is, of course, gay.

    Following this, Dave pulled off a magnificent rendition of Aguilera’s “Beautiful” – slightly emotionless yet tuneful (just like the original – insipid pointy-faced bint), with full pronunciation of all his T’s, English fans. Good use of the “woo-ooahoh” in the chorus.

    Rachel, un-seasonally, went for Cliff Richard’s “Mistletoe and Wine”. Having started out perhaps taking the whole thing quite seriously, and doing perfectly well, she then got a bit agitated and unnecessary and over-pronounced everything and sounded like a dad at a barbeque.

    Chris went for “Turn” by Travis. Initially sounding for all the world like a quiet Joe Cocker, and nothing at all like Fran Healy (but all the better for it), he then got a bit Lemmy from Motorhead (without the dangly facial warts) at the chorus, and apparently this turned him purple.

    Following a text vote, Chris was crowned winner of Breakfast Show karaoke, which makes him favourite for tomorrow night’s live karaoke madness. Rachel and he are going to do Elaine Paige and Barbara Dixon’s classic “I Know Him So Well”. The prize is a pound.

    Car Park Catchphrase

    Craig from Northampton vs. Chris the “chocolate man” from Dorset, who sounded a bit like Derek from big Brother. Everything is wonderful in the world of chocolate Chris. Ahh.

    Craig got “worse for wear” and “the second bite of the cherry” and therefore he won. Go he.

    Other Things

    Chris in the middle of The Game’s latest dirge: “Is anybody still awake out there?”

    A humourless listener texted in to complain about the team “planning” to go to the US to promote the show. He recommended that the team focus more on making the show enjoyable for their UK listeners, to which Chris responded: “Dave Pearce used to do this show – do you want him back? DO YOU? It can be arranged. Do you want Dermot O’Leary on? Do you? No. Shut up you moaning arse.”

    Aled on the vote for best karaoke performance: “in silver place, with… second”


    Tuesday 16th August 2005 [Posted Tuesday, August 16 2005 by ChrisM]

    Hello Everybody
    On todays show - Eugene is filling in for Chris Moyles. Eugene is being the radio and realises being on the show means you miss it.

    Eugene Taking Over
    After complaints previously from Aled, and several other celebrities on other Radio 1 shows the famous BB engineer
    claims 'Its too complicated'. We love it. The Eugene Radio Show, National Radio 1.
    Chris (Tarrent) Moment - The above is prerecorded and Eugene is actually waking up to himself at his home and being prerecorded means Eugene isn't in today and all my hopes were shattered. Chris shows his length of understanding complex things - his head now hurts.
    According to the texts what gave this prerecording away is that Dave is way too energetic. Chris notices there are three types of people on the texts. 'The Smart Arse', 'The Oh Sh.. hes on' and 'The Why Nots'.

    Chris goes live 7:12
    Rachel has a poorly tummy and the runs. Subject turns to the meeting after the show and the numerous fans who are
    hanging around for autographs in the Caff. Someone has walked up to the team in a meeting and done a neerdy gag on the group who are given someones autograph and two other nerds who want Eugene. I'm glad they call them nerds as people don't realise they are different from geeks. Ben the Boss is a nerd!
    Aleds still not leaving along with one voice, one life, one Chappers and Dave Pearce even with all the recent cutbacks at the BBC. A semi-loud burp of medium length with a slight reverb shuts this case shut.

    Rachels Dress
    Rachels wearing the Tweenies, red and yellow. A pink hoodie from Bournemouth University, which makes Rach look like a marshmellow after her dramatic weight loss. The following conversation can be found on previous reviews. Just popping down to my local RJ's. Rachel is in da hood. E.T. rocks!

    Top Of The Polls
    Jay-Z is either the most important, richest or powerful man in rap on either a magazine, TV programme, or poll and is more important than P-Diddy. Absolutly brilliant link, make your own link up to do with something fake and you have a link. Chris is back on the web-cams and they want to 'play web-cam with them'. Eugene anyone?
    Visit Aleds Web-Cam (As of 16/8/05 it doesn't work).
    Annoyingly this link carried on until they point out Joss thinks shes going to be bumped up.

    A New Remix
    A new remix is found on Chris's desk on minidisk continuing the remix month of August. It is a tribute Trisha remix. A mix of keyboard theme tune and very amusing clips of the show. 'I can't say 'bull poo''.
    'Amazing' claimed by Dave. 'Great' claimed by a fat George Clueney.

    Butlins at Skeggie
    Hi De Hi - Ho De Ho. All the plans are revealed, again. 'I'm dying, dying' because this link is a dragger and apart from the comedic impressions and interjections of Hi-De-Hi clips.

    Usual Features
    Rob DJ's Monday Night Pub Quiz
    The bat and ball question from a couple of weeks ago is now on a local staion so find that station and win. New question : if 5 machines make 5 widgets in 5 minutes how long would it take 100 machines to make 100 widgets. Its a simple answer. 5 machines make 5 widgets in 5 minutes, which in a 'ratio', 1 machine makes 1 widget in 5 minutes, therefore 100 makes 100 in 100 minutes. Dave was wrongly marked during the GCSE exams. Anyway that was earlier today Rachels still in for the quiz, Carrie is winning.

    Questions
    1. What was the name of Roger Rabbits wife?
    2. What rodents gather in a rabble?
    BBC Engineers?
    3. Who scored the first goal of the new Premiership season?
    4. What does paper do if stone breaks scissors?
    A lengthy discussion comes across Chris playing a three handed game and Rob is a dumbass.
    5. What letter follows this sequence MAMJJASO?

    Answers
    1. Jessica (All bar Dom)
    2. A Rabble Of Rats (All bar Carrie and Dave)
    3. Ruuuuud Van Nistlroy (All)
    4. Paper would rap the stone (All)
    5. N (All bar Carrie)

    Chris has a FULL HOUSE.
    So Carrie is first with 17. Chris and Dave 15. And third Dom 14.

    Guess What
    Numerous tunes today including the new remix of Jump as second track on A side and on the other is a new remix of

    Smells like teen spirit. For the full details search for Paul Anka.

    Tedious Link
    Todays tedious link goes towards Zoe and Sun Shines On A Rainy Day
    Not quite a complete link - What is a Placebo?, Young MC is called Know How. 'Balls'. Where is the Corrs from? but still technically the Irish Republic. Its too complicated and again for Tuesday - rubbish.

    RAMBLE - WWTBAM music is used as last week crops up
    The ramble starts late because of Daves link failure and the section starts with the ticket giveaway results. Butlins is still the topic of conversation until Aleds birthday present of a football book for girls arrives and the quiz nears for Aled. Dave wants an explanation of the Cups and Leagues of football. Aled takes his knowledge well and goes all the way to the Conference for Leagues. Aleds knowledge has obviously improved and makes me need to start reading.
    The offside rule by Aled - seeming to go through every permutation but at least knows what its to do with.

    CPC
    Its Kiren from Wembley where Ginger Bush lives there against Dan from Epson where Harry Bullocks lives. Ones a
    catering disposiable and the other car paint. Who wins. Who cares. No, the result was 2-1.

    Yesterdays Weather
    Sunniest - Weymouth, Dorset - 13 point hours
    Coldest - Fare (?) Isle - 13 degrees

    Chris and Dave are both knackered
    The show opens this morning with big yawn from Chris saying how tired he is, Dave is also tired and cant understand why, “Its not like we were out on the pop last night” although it turns out Chris was. He told us about his exciting evening last night which involved pushing a Smart Car Convertible down to the pub, then going home and getting a Chinese, chicken curry with no onions and fried rice no less!

    Radio 1 Summer Friday Thing
    After a pretty desperate plea from a listener to play a song for his wife who might leave him, Chris officially opens the Radio 1 Summer Friday Thing. He says that he really doesn’t like the feature, until that is, Rachel calls him up first thing in the morning screaming “ITS FRIDAY” down the phone, and until he hears the Friday thing jingle, after that, its all good. Also today, Rachel seems to have gone all out for the occasion, having her eyebrows shaped, and her eyelashes tinted. After a quick comment on how Carries knockers look a treat in her little pink top We find out where Aled is today, last week he was in Lincoln, this week…

    Aled’s in the Isle of Wight
    Armed with Aled’s best dance hits, Aled is in the Isle of Wight in the Ice Cream Booth this time. Although, that’s not where he’s meant to be, they wanted him in the White Isle, another name for Ibiza, what a palaver, but if you believe that, you’d believe anything. So anyway, Aled is on the Isle of Wight, giving out more Roy Walker T-Shirts. Get the party started!

    Summer Shuffle
    I’m not to keen on this feature to be honest, the songs people have chosen so far haven’t been all that great, today’s was alright, Danny the turkey farmer who likes Green Day, and the Levellers, chose Madonna - Holiday. Quite random, but it was summery so its alright I guess.

    Back with Aled
    We rejoin Aled and he’s playing Wigfield – Saturday Night, getting everyone on the Isle in the party mood! Unfortunately though, only guys have been tuning up, so he’s running low on T-Shirts, so a ladies half hour is called for, with the same rules applied, if you’re aren’t fit, then don’t bother coming. Chris asks him to replace the Wigfield hit with something cooler, Aled promptly chooses a remake of “Sweet for me Sweet” by DJ Lewis. I have to say, this morning, Aled has been brilliant, not that he isn’t normally, but I think this morning has been really funny so far!

    Davina McCall
    She’s in the studio, and flashing Rachel! It’s the last night of Big Brother tonight, so she came in for a chat. Chris says he’ll gets all his pervy stuff out the way before she comes in to talk...which none of us believe! Upon entering, Chris gives a quick introduction to all the American listeners out there, and straight after that, Chris askes if Davina wants to see his bum, not pervy at all! Jokingly of course, but Davina wants to see it! So he gives a quick flash, and then compares it to the surface of Mars! What a nice thing to say about yourself! Davina thought picks up on the Mars thing, and links it to her not liking space travel and how it would be in her Room 101. She thinks it’s a waste of money, it could be used for greater things on this planet, like voting for who wins on Big Brother, Obviously!

    They quickly start chatting about Big Brother, and how Kinga is so large on a wide screen TV, she spills out onto Channel 5 and ITV! Chris mentions how he went there with is mum and dad and was shocked at how small and chubby she actually was, and Davina adds that she is a beautiful small and chubby person…sorry, I just can’t see it myself. They continue casting opinions on the housemates, and question why Makosi is allowed the wig from the task, and why Derek had a watch, Davina knew the answer to neither. Davina brought up the point that Craig in her interview was really funny, happy, and excited, and then in BBLB’s interview with Dermot, he was really sad, I noticed that, he just didn’t seem to care. They continue talking about Big Brother and try to convince Chris to go on Celebrity Big Brother, he is adamant he doesn’t want to do it, but at the back of his mind, I think he does.

    Davina and Dave’s Ramble
    This morning, Davina joined Dave in shouting “Lets get ready to Ramble”, and I thought she did it quite well, it sounded weird when they kept switching beween the two of them, but it was funny still. They surprisingly continue to talk about Big Brother. Davina is told that she has been given the chance of speaking to the housemates at random later today, but she cant decide what to say to them. Chris really wants Davina to show Makosi how two faces she was, I agree, I couldn’t stand how two faced she was. She was terrible. They talk some more about what Davina will be wearing this evening for the show, Chris hazards a guess that it will be her usual black, but it isn’t! She chose this outfit though in the first week!

    Just randomly, I hope Eugene wins, but I bet Anthony will snatch it.

    Ibiza Undercovered
    Throughout the show today, there have been 3 short sections about Ibiza, Similar to when Aled does his sections about Sunderland for example. I didn’t find these all that funny to be honest, but they were listenable.

    Chris Mixing
    During the golden hour today, Chris took it upon himself to do a bit of mixing, there was some speculation on the forum as to whether it was actually him or not doing the mixing, I think it was myself, and he did an alright job of it.

    Aled Says Goodbye
    Aled’s got rid of all the T-Shirts, and its now playing more chill out music, Geri Halliwel’s Lift Me Up is what we hear, he gives us a little sing song, and then is told to turn it off by Chris. We learn that Roy Walker is coming to the Isle of Wight today, and people will turn up to welcome him with their T-Shirts. Aled casts his vote on who he thinks will win, (Anthony) and Chris tells him to call Makosi a lying Bi-!

    After goodbyes to Aled, Chris plays us out with a mix of Roger Sanchez – Another Chance and Arman Van Helden – Mymymy.

    Guess what folks? Only a couple of days of Big Brother left this year, which is a darn shame if you ask anyone with half a brain. It also means that after Friday the team are actually going to have to think up some proper features instead of relying on guests from the show! Better pack loads of it onto today's show then! And what do you know…there was a "surprise" eviction last night. Thank goodness for that, otherwise Whattity What may have been dragged out of retirement. Ahem.

    So Craig is on the show today - I'm glad he's out as he annoyed me on the few occasions I watched it. Although the part that Chris is most looking forward to is Craig strapping Dave to a chair and…cutting his hair (what did you think it was going to be?).



    Before Craig came into the studio though, we had the opportunity to listen to Aled's questions from the previous night's press conference - which I always find are better than the studio interviews themselves. This one was made even more entertaining by the fact Aled clearly hates Craig.

    Aled and Craig clashed at the press conference it's fair to say - some people didn't like his attitude towards the newly evicted housemate, Dave and Rachel backed Aled though, and I do as well. In fact Aled knew from the second the conference started that he was going to clash with Craig, so claimed to be from the Scott Mills show - this way Chris's good name wouldn't be tainted. His present to Craig didn't go down too well either, buying him a toy rabbit and a saucepan - a bunny boiler if you will. He also asked if he'd fancy Chris - but that would clearly be yes as "we all want a bit of Moyles". But Craig didn't even know who Chris is, or even know who Tony Blair was.



    Chris: This is painful
    My sentiments exactly….

    As for the interview itself, it was the dull kind of take-it or leave it rubbish that most bb contestants are on the show (well he did swear, but hardly a highlight) - not just this year but also every single year. Especially when considering he had never heard of the show, didn't know what it was all about and hadn't had any sleep. Brrrrrriliant.

    Chris did his "creeping round" act for the most part - although I don't blame him, there is not point getting Craig on the show and taking the pee out of him and telling him he was rubbish. But underneath there was a sense that Chris really didn't like Craig coming across, but maybe that's just me.



    Other Stuff On Today's Show

    (*) Longman's offered to go to America to help promote the show in the US - may not be the best idea since he got chucked out of Disneyland for being drunk. Longman text in to claim he's being victimised - which I agree with. Rachel's fault if you ask me, get him on the show more.

    (*) Dom and Carrie are fluffing all over the place. Dom is writing the script for the weather, so why is he putting stuff in he can't even say - silly boy! Chris though he could do better and promptly showed Dom up. Soon the whole team were having a go, but Rachel was Dom's saviour but she did have a mouth full of apple.

    (*) Chris went on a bit of a shopping spree yesterday - like he does once every few months. That included a [deliberate fade down] dvd and "The Comic Strip Presents…"

    (*) Chris recorded "Celebrity Bogies" for Dick and Dick Dom in da bungalow - the worst Saturday morning show (in my opinion) since Vernon's FBI. It took part in a library - and many people complained because it was childish and disturbing their reading, and rightly so too.

    (*) Will's in the studio, but he's just reading the paper rather than listening to the show - how rude.

    Tedious Link

    James Brown - 'Living In America' - Living in America is what Anthony Hopkins is now doing - Anthony Hopkins starred as Hannibal Lecter in 'Silence of the lambs' - lambs is the term for a baby sheep - sheep and lambs produce wool - wool is a substance which is good for making jumpers and scarves - jumpers and scarves are worn around the necks - necks can vary in size with monkeys and mice having really small necks and swans and giraffes having really long necks - necks rhymes with kegs which is a slang word for trousers or pants - pants is what a dog might do after a really long walk on a really hot day - Day, first name Anya, is responsible for the current camp dance smash 'Nasty Girl' which samples a Prince song on the soundtrack to 'Beverly Hills Cop' which starred Eddie Murphy - Eddie Murphy shares the same last name as Rocheen Murphy from Moloko who's song 'Sing It Back' is thought of as a big Ibiza record, but when you think of big Ibiza records you think of Stardust - 'Music Sounds Better With You' which links us to Stardust - 'Music Sounds Better With You'

    Mini-Moyles Update



    Chris locked himself away to work on something special today listen from 7 tomorrow to see what it was...
    Dave was planning on watching Lost. Dom's not been to the Zoo for a while, so hes going. Carries doing research on Huddersfield & Swansea today.
    Rachel's off to the gym and tending to her plump crop and Aled's going overseas to a secret location for tomorrow!

    “I think we need to appeal to a wider audience. Not fatter people…”

    Chris kicked off today’s “historic” show with this mission statement – and decided that the way to appeal to this wider audience was not to talk about football, at least not until 8am. Oh, and to broadcast to a whole new continent, that was part of the plan too. This morning, for the first time, the Chris Moyles Breakfast Show was broadcast on normal radio in the Goddamn US of Goddamn A. Hallelujah.

    After the “false dawn” of the team harping on about the Sirius thing when they got back from holiday, but then being told that it actually wasn’t going to happen for another couple of weeks, they thankfully piped down about it for a bit. But now it’s really happening. Who knows if anyone in America will actually care? Who knows if the team actually care? At five past seven this morning, Dave was more bothered about watching highlights of the Everton game. I don’t think he cares too much, really. Or maybe he’s just playing it cool.

    Chris took the opportunity to berate the “fat, burger eating Yanks” as the broadcast in the US wasn’t set to start until after the 9am pips. The not talking about football lasted until, ooh, about 7.15am. Business as usual, then, apart from that whole American thing.

    So the first song that the US heard Chris Moyles playing was James Brown’s “Living In America” along with lots of those annoying backwards noise squeaky “Rrrrrradio… One” mini-trailer things, whatever they’re called. One of Chris’s first sentences in this new era began “Just in case anyone is listening in America”, which seemed quite representative of the general mood about this Transatlantic fandango – not that bothered, and anticipating a potential lack of botheredness from America too. Rachel suggested they might have 5 new listeners. Perhaps if they count trucker caps and guns as separate entities to their owners, and factor that into the equation, they might even reach double figures…

    Big Brother – Eugene to Win?

    The most pleasing thing you are likely to hear all week, if not all month, if not for the rest of your entire life, is the Eugene remix played on this morning’s show. Particularly the Morse Code bit in the chorus (“da-dit-da-da-dit-dit “). Eugene’s not even a good quality geek - he’s possibly one step away from man-with-woman’s-bag, which is something I am frightened of. But the Breakfast Show’s remixes of housemate catchphrases have been toppermost this year, and for that I am grateful.

    Dominic is convinced that Eugene will win on the Will Young Principle – which dictates that everyone thinks that Anthony (BBs equivalent of Gareth Gates) will win, so they won’t bother voting for him, yet people will vote for Eugene as he’s the underdog, and therefore he will actually win. Chris still thinks that Anthony will win, but concedes that it’s likely to be a close-run thing. Aled reckons that Craig or Kinga will be going out tonight – and he has “a lot of questions” for the former – but Chris reckons it’ll be Kinga.

    Personally I think that Eugene will cry himself into a raisin if he’s still there on the last night, and if he actually wins he’ll cry himself into a pile of bone dust in the half hour between the runner up leaving the house and him leaving it himself. Whereas Anthony, if he wins, will just do that stupid one man electric pulse dance thing he does all the chuffing time, and will go on to do some lads mag photoshoot thing in which he poses with a scantily clad someone and makes thinly-veiled homophobic references about Craig to try to prove that he’s not really one of the gays himself.

    And then there’ll be a big George-Michael-esque public toilet revelation and Anthony will come out properly and be the new “My-Partner-David-Furnish” to Graham Norton or some other high profile manlover. Hurrah for closet homosexuality! I flaming love Big Brother.


    Car Park Catchphrase

    John the “ground worker” (he lays pavements) from Cumberton vs. John Thomas (tee hee) from somewhere (I didn’t listen to what he said because I was too busy being amused by his name)

    John Thomas’s name being a euphemism for “the willy” gave Dominic the opportunity to use my actual favourite name for the man garden - “Steven and the twins”. Other opportune puns included Dom’s “willy or won’t he” and Chris’s “oh come on, don’t be a dick”.

    The catchphrases, which were of course secondary to the genitalia jokes, were “close shave”, “all hands on deck” and “earning a crust”. The man with the name of the knob won. Houpla.


    Other Things

    Chris on Usher: “It’s E-Sure. Calm down dear, he’s only a rapper”.

    Chris on Charlie Bucket’s Grandad’s (in Charlie and The Chocolate Factory) miraculous recovery from being bedridden, when he finds out Charlie’s got the Golden Ticket: “Get out of bed you old duffer, get down the Post Office and get your pension, get Wogan off and go to work, you lazy get”.

    Chris agreed with a listener’s suggestion that, if it were slowed down, the Magic Numbers song would sound like the “Only Fools And Horses” theme tune.

    Chris and Dave started doing their amusing “and incidentally, did you know about…” conversational promotion of the Radio 1 advice line for exam result issues, which never fails to raise a chuckle. Annoying, however, that it had to be done over a loop of the first bit from “Lose Yourself” by Eminem – that song’s cack. On the subject of songs though, isn’t that Simon Webbe song good? Like, really. Wonder what the kebab shop one out of Blue will come up with to match that shiznit. It is so on, Anthony Costa.

    Chris doing an impression of Judge Jules on the Radio 1 10 years in Ibiza trailer: “it’s like the electrical cable under the kettle lighting the fire to make the tea of dance”.

    Particularly enjoyed the Jim Bowen mix of “Call On Bully” (Eric Prydz’s “Call On Me”), involving Jim Bowen saying “super smashing great” and “look at what you could have won”. Super. Chris then went on to play Jive Bunny’s “Swing The Mood”, during which Dave advised him to “bring the beat back”, and suggested that it’s music and mixing like that which means that they should be doing the Ibiza special thing rather than Dave Pearce.

    The funny man who won the competition to have his face put on the “24” computer game came into the studio, and brought Chris a Bop It to say thank you for his opportunity, which was a lovely thought. Dave remarked that now Chris is going to get obsessed with the Bop It and that it will ruin the show.

    Doms newish parody

    Neighbours and Bad Weather
    First of all, let me just introduce myself quickly, I’m Simon, and I’m your new Friday Show Reviewer…that’s enough of an introduction I think…on with the show.

    So the show’s opening today left me in total confusion, the teams stunning impressions first of all led me to believe that I was listening to Dez Lynam, soon to be replaced by Dez from Neighbours who used to run the café with Daphne, but that’s another story, and alas, it was just one big joke, Chris’ impressions eh?!? One little quote that made me chuckle about said Dez from Neighbours was

    Chris : Didn’t he go mad?
    Dave: I don’t know, he has sticky out ears though didn’t he!

    We also discover that Dave has been out last night, so he is feeling a little shattered today…poor Dave.

    It’s Friday again today, and, its also summer, meaning only one thing, its “Radio 1 Summer Friday Thing”, and, as Chris rightly points out, we cant very well be feeling summery when its pouring down with rain outside. But, every merry Moyles attempts to lift our spirits with a quick impression of a comedy style horn, suggesting to wear springy eyed glasses, and changing the teams names to more…summery and wacky alternatives.

    Comedy Dave = Crazy Radio 1 Summer Friday Dave
    Dominic Byrne = Slaphead Byrne
    Carrie = Boobs
    Rachael = Keeps her as Rachael because she is the producer…it’s a good a reason as any.
    Chris = Pete Dong

    They Continue to discuss the weather, and Chris just really tries to get everyone into the Friday Summer mood, Dave eventually decides “He‘s up for it“!

    Fred
    So you may have heard about this Fred person (IF that’s his real name…he didn’t seem to sure himself), if you haven’t heard about it, I’ll give you a brief run down. Yesterday on the Scott Mills show, a guy called Fred called, he is a waiter in a restaurant, and Chris and his Girlfriend came in for a meal and only left a 20p tip, that’s right, 20p, can you believe the nerve of some people…well, actually no, because none of it is true. So, as Scott does, he decides to get Fred back with an elaborate prank Starring Chappers as “The Guy from News Of The World” and Mr Chris Moyles himself as the “Editor“. Hilarity aplenty ensued as they called up poor unsuspecting Fred to bust his little story wide open.

    Chappers goes on and gets Fred all excited about “selling” his story to the paper, but to negotiate a price, he has to speak to the Editor (Sounds like something from the Matrix….shut up Simon)…so onto the Editor we go. The Editor, as I mentioned before, is played by Chris, his Northern Irish come Welsh come Pakistan accent, I thought, was class, it made me laugh anyway. So blissfully unaware, Fred speaks to Chris about how much his story will sell for, and gets more excited when Chris leads him to believe Chris was cheating! Chris eventually though suddenly changes, and confronts Fred, in total disbelief Fred hangs up., but not before Chris has a little go at him, asking what combo meal he had, and actually sounding pretty mad, brilliant in my opinion.

    Aled’s In Lincoln, in an Ice-Cream Truck
    Can I just start by asking, did anyone else think that Aled’s Summery Jingle, sounded more like something you’d play at Christmas time? Anyway…moving on.

    Aled is in Lincoln today, giving out more Roy Walker Legend T-Shirts, why is he in Lincoln they ask, because their new Executive Producer Rees used to live there, so he has local knowledge, and because Jo Whiley is on a beach, Aled thought he’d be better off getting out and about,…nice answers, and to really boost that Friday Summer Feeling, Aled is in a lovely Ice-Cream truck, complete with Ice-Cream! Similar to last week, Aled promises Chris that he will only hand out T-Shirts to fit people, and not mingers, “a bit ugly is fine, but no Eugene’s”! Before we leave Aled, we’re treated to a short outburst from the song the Ice-Cream truck plays, It sounds absolutely terrible, and he promises to have a better one for when we rejoin him later.

    But, when we do rejoin him, we find poor Aled in a bit of a pickle. Over 100 people have turned up for T-Shirts, and they only have about 45 left, Chris suggests he just drives off, but not before giving out a shirt to the fit girl at t
