Chris’s big dilemma last night was whether he should go see The Darkness play in London or go out with his mate to the pub. Unsurprisingly he opted for the latter option, as Dave had predicted. Chris rang Edith Bowman to say that he might be going with her and Cat Deeley to see The Darkness, but phoned back later opting for the boozer - as she had predicted also. Chris didn’t have too many drinks last night as Sophie was back from her break this morning, and he wanted to be in a fit enough state to greet her. Chris taped Celebrity Wifeswap on Channel 4 and watched it when he got in. Dave also saw it as last night he was spending ‘quality time with the wife’ (translation=under the thumb). Both said it was disappointing and Chris even thought that Jade Goody came out of it well, if indeed that is possible. Chris took the mick out of her boyfriends voice and said the show he presents with June Sar-ping-pong is like watching Only Fools And Horses as it’s all in * rhyming slang. Dave said they should have proper celebrity wifeswap pairings. Chris suggested Brad Pitt & Jennifer Aniston - and Richard & Judy. Aled didn't see it as last night he went to see Kill Bill for the third time in a week - and fell asleep half way through. Chris said it was ‘praise indeed for Tarantino’s current epic of the big screen’.
Chris again upset Georgina after the 3:30 news. Her bulletin included a story about Britney wanting to buy one of Guy Ritchie’s ex-houses in London. Chris said that no one cares as people buy houses everyday - ‘Infact it happens so much that people have even set up their own companies and called themselves...estate agents’. George sounded really peed off. I’m not too sure about her reading the news on next years breakfast show as she seems to get easily offended if Chris has a go or wants to talk about her private life on air. The newsreader on Chris's show needs to be willing to do this and be like a 5th member of the team. It remains to be seen whether it’ll be George or current breakfast show newsreader Matt Barbet on Chris’s show next year. Chappers will definitely be reading the sport though. On a side note to the whole Guy Ritchie thing, Dave said that if Britney can’t get hold of Guy Ritchie’s house, ‘then she could try Shane Ritchie’s house’.
Aled rang up Chris earlier today to say that as producer, he was slightly worried about the lack of features on the show at the moment. Chris therefore set himself, Aled and Dave the task of thinking up a feature each for today’s show. Aled thought up three features that never got used. They were entitled Pup Idol, Guess Where and ‘Dave vs The Great Radio 1 Listener’. The first was meant to be a search for the UK’s best singing dog (one text said it had already been done on Des & Mel),. The second was some interactive picture messaging idea that appeared to be more of a visual thing, and the third was basically Daves Introductory Service. Despite having been on the show for over a year (and before that as BB), Aled had never known that guessing the song intros was called Daves Introductory Service. Off the back of this there were the usual suggestions for new features via text and e-mail.
Chris said about 95% were sick. One said bring back the Secret Squirrel from The Chris Moyles Gold Archive and one said bring back Family Farttunes. One similar idea on the text was for one member of the team to fart and the others had to sniff up and guess what this person had had for their tea last night. Dave for some reason thought this might be too low-brow. Another suggestion was for topless listeners (female obviously) to send in pictures of themselves and leave the team to guess their cup size. Dave said ‘put it down as a possibility’.
The feature Chris thought up for today’s show was called ‘The Great Michael Jackson Black or White Quiz’. From the title you suspect it was potentially libelous, but basically it was a strung together last minute quiz using bits of songs from a Michael Jackson Number Ones Compilation CD to give it some credibility. The only problem was that the disc was buggered and kept on skipping. Chris played snippets from Jackson songs such as Beat It, Billie Jean and Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough. It was Dave v Aled and the questions were mainly for them to guess blanked out lyrics and answer a string of dodgy questions (e.g after Chris played Billie Jean - ‘Name 5 famous people called Billy’). It tailed off from here on in and Chris said at that point in the quiz's creation, ex-producer Ben and James from Marketing popped in for a chinwag. At one point in the quiz we were “treated” to the hideous sound of Aled singing Jacko's The Way You Make Me Feel. Dave beat Aled by default as Chris didn’t count the scores. The best bit of the link was Chris saying that in one of his hits Jacko sings about the former scouse presenter of Blind Date. He played the chorus of Thriller which does sound a bit like he is singing ‘Cilla’.
Texts came in saying the quiz was crap and Chris should stop picking on Jacko. Chris said he puts die-hard Jacko fans in the same category as Radiohead ones for having a sense of humour, and said (like most people I think) that he was a big fan of Jackson until the 90’s when he became the freak that he is today.
If people were disappointed by Chris’s quiz then they hadn’t seen anything yet. Dave said his quiz was info-tainment and play at home fun. It was thought up in the queue at Sainsburys and was called ‘Guess What I’m Cooking’. The rules were that Dave would read out 5 key ingredients to a well-known dish and Chris and Aled had to identify it. One text correctly pointed out that this quiz was coming from the man
who doesn’t know the difference between Cottage and Shepherds pie. Chris beat Aled by 3 and a half points to 1 but neither had a clue on most of the questions. The funniest moment was when Dave read out the ingredients for Spaghetti Bolognese. Chris had already got it wrong so the full question went to Aled. Despite the fact that ‘Dolmio’ and ‘Spaghetti’ were read out, Aled didn’t know the answer and went for Shepherds pie. He said he didn’t have a clue unless it was a Big Mac.
Dave was announcing the scores at the end when Chris played the intro to the new Black Eyed Peas song Shut Up. It started with the words ‘shut up’ and cut across Dave talking. Chris said that it was quite fitting really as the whole UK had been saying it for the last 10 minutes.
Aleds Quiz called Aleds Camp Xmas Quiz went down like a fart in a crowded lift. Aled had lyrics from Xmas songs and Dave and Chris had to guess what song it was. Chris said you could feel the power surge from people turning off. Chris argued that there was a couple he hadnt even heard of. Someone texted in to say that if they didnt want the breakfast show, they were going the right way about it. Other choice words were Sack the Welsh gimp How long till Rachel comes back, Get the tea on Taffy, Terry Wogan must be crapping himself. Chris said at least they have their own hair.
Chris asked what the deal was with the football. Dave had to explain the word aggregate to Aled. Chris asked why England was playing. It is because its a friendly. Hopefully Scott Parker will be playing, good to see a non Man U/Arsenal/Liverpool player playing instead.
Someone said that Kylies Slow sounded like a Spectrum game. This got them talking about retro games. Chris had a texas computer. Chris had a BBC computer also. Chris doesnt get computers at all, having to load them and waiting for 20 minutes and after 19 minutes it would freeze. Chris said he wanted games when he was a kid but they couldnt afford it. Chris wanted Big Track. Chris had a Mr Frosty which he enjoyed and downfall. Chris had a poor mans version of simon. Theres a good version of simon online on b3ta.com that is a swearing version. Chris went to a mates house to play hungry hippoes. Chris went to the arcades to play paperboy. Dungeons and Dragons always cost more in the arcades he said.
Chris recalled when he wanted an arcade machine in his house. Dave said Frogger was his thing. Chris said cider was more his thing. Aled said he was 21 when he started drinking. Chris cant drink spirits. Chris talked about Will and other people who just drink one brand of lager. They claimed that they dont like the taste. They disproved the theory by changing his drinks and he never knew the difference. Chris had a Evil Knevil. Chris said the most times he saw those games were like at the end of school term. Chris loved the board game of Guess Who. Chris asked what Jet Set Willy was. Aled showed his true self by saying that has an emulator on his pc. Sadly enough, I downloaded an emulator last week for the Sega Megadrive and have been playing Sensible Soccer on it, still cant beat AC Milan.
Chris found the original arcade classic of paperboy on a website. Chris thought that the coffee table ones look class and he thought about getting them for Aled and Dave for Christmas. Dave said he would like the Space Invaders one but it was £1295 pounds. Chris said to forget it but Frogger was affordable.

FLAWS
* Clark Kent wasnt Supermans real name, it was Calal. Clark was his moniker.
* Open to debate whether Blair and Brown are mates.
* You can get gout anywhere on the body not just the foot.
*Surely if you were having no sleep till brooklands you wouldnt need a sign in order to wake you up. It would be Sleeping till or Wake me up at.
