After five days and three shows out over in Derry, Chris and the team had returned back to London for this morning’s show. They were all tired and Chris was still a bit croaky, but nevertheless they were glad to be back on the air in Studio 3 from a desk that Chris knows how to operate. I believe when I was away the other week that Chris offended Wes’s producer Cat, who is still not talking to him now. Chris said he definitely would given half the chance, which differs from his own producer Rachel who he said he had never “wanted to do” since they met three and a half years ago. Nice to start off with a compliment I always think. Dave said you just can’t mix love and professional relationships. It was a slick and seamless start to the show as Chris back announced Reptilia by The Strokes and got ready to introduce the 7:00 news and sport:-
Chris (over news bed) - Right so coming up D12, Boogie Pi..pumps...oh god (Dave sniggers as Chris drops bed) The Boogie Pumps?
(everyone laughs)
Dave - So much slicker now that we’re back eh?

Juliette was modelling a blue pair of six year old Sue Pollard spectacles this morning, which she said she only ever wears while looking at a computer. She joked she got the glasses free with an edition of Just 17 magazine in the 80’s.
Dave - You should have gone to Specsavers
(Chris laughs)

Jules said it was Vision Express actually. Dave tried these glasses on and Dom said they made his left eye look a little lazy (everyone stared and laughed). Dave tried to explain that he had his contacts in and his lenses pull in the opposite direction when he wears glasses with them. Chris however was having none of it and interrupted him...
Chris - Are you boss-eyed?
Dave - No not at all
Chris - Like the fella from Dukes Of Hazzard
Dave (carries on with story then suddenly stops) - ...who was boss eyed in Dukes o..(laughs), no that was Boss Hogg you’re thinking of
(everyone laughs)

Dave described Chris’s unsuccessful Buzz Off choice today as a bit odd. Moyles picked Ocean Pie by Shed Seven - which flew into the charts with a bullet at number 33 back in November 94. The song lasted just 1 minute 40 seconds before Dave finally got rid of it. The listeners were first on 1:20, Aled next on 1:27 and then Rachel third on 1:35. Chris said he’s now running out of CD’s to play tracks from, which Dave said was clear from today’s choice of tune. Chris said hello to any of the Shed Seven boys in case they were listening (Dave laughed). I hear that they’re big fans of Listen Again and can’t get enough of the show when in their office (or indeed their shed). Tomorrow there will be a special version of Chix Win Tix on the show, called “Chix Win Da Tix”. That’s because 50 Cent and G Unit are playing a one off gig in the UK on June 6th, after The Days Of Thunder Motor Racing Championship at Rockingham in Corby (and yes I swear I’m not making this up). Fiddy is apparently a massive ASCAR fan and as well as giving away a pair of tickets to the gig tomorrow, the prize is also VIP - meaning top notch hospitality and the chance to meet Mr Cent after the show. Maybe it’s just me but I can’t help thinking there must be some sort of managerial weight behind this competition as it’s really not something you’d normally associate with either Chris or Rachel.

Chris played new singles on the show today from Jay-Z and Natasha Bedingfield, both of which he really likes (he seems to be kissing the playlist clerk’s ass quite a bit at the moment). Dave agreed about the Jay-Z tune 99 Problems, saying it’s a fantastic record. He was less sure about the Natasha Bedingfield one though, which he says has still yet to grow on him. It’s grown on me and I like it now, and after seeing her for the first time on telly last week (on TOTP I think) she’s pretty damn hot too. Just a pity she has such an arsehole for a brother...although I better point out at this point that I wish Daniel a speedy recovery from his nasty accident (all bases covered there I think). Natasha’s new single comes out next week. Also on the show today were live OBW tracks from Chris’s mates The Streets, Keane (who his voice went while introducing) and Dave’s musical highlight of the weekend - Ash’s live version of Orpheus. There was also another link ridiculing the new “wacky” and “zany” Colin and Edith trail, featuring them as cartoon characters hitting each other over the head with a range of “hilarious” household objects (cue the sound effects). Rachel thought Chris was being a bit harsh on it, although Aled refused to comment. This after he got momentarily confused before Carpark Catchphrase about whether or not he’d been to a Foo Fighters gig, that while doing his “glitter rock” dance to All My Life. Jones wanted as well to congratulate Aberystwyth Town on qualifying for Europe. They’ve finished third in The Welsh Mitsubishi Premier League (I love the bit when he says that on Sports Report) and now will be in the UEFA Cup qualifiers in the summer. Aled’s dad had to inform him of this news, despite the fact that Aled was given lifetime honorary vice presidency of the club last year (he’s still only been to one match this season - it’s almost May). Dave had his echo back for a bit of an evil half time intro this morning and he also slightly peed me off as when denying Tedious Link flaws he used my word - pernickity. That’s copyright MC I tell ya.

WHO ON THE TEAM WOULD YOU DO?:
Yep that’s right, yet another highbrow breakfast radio feature brought to you courtesy of Chris Moyles and Dave Vitty Entertainment. It basically started off with a very innocent and typical conversation around quarter to eight, which then spiralled out of control and resulted in Chris opening up a one and a half hour text vote. This vote asked the listeners...(wait for it)...who on the team they’d most like to sleep with. Genius I’m sure you’ll agree, we don’t pay that licence fee for nothing y’know.

Chris was flicking through the May edition of GQ today, in which he found some very sexy pics of Uma *insert my name* Thurman, who he (and I) think is looking very yummy at the moment. Dave said he can see the attraction in her but personally doesn’t fancy her cos she’s “too tall and lanky”. Also in this magazine were some revealing pics of Carol Vorderman, all vamped up. Chris said he’d always had a thing for Carol and thought the photos were very sexy and a big turn on. Dave on the other hand (despite saying that she is an attractive older woman) thought the photos were just wrong and too racy for a woman of her age. He said it was just like seeing your mum.
Chris - Are you trying to tell me you’d say no to that?
Dave - Of course, in a shot. I mean without even thinking about it
Chris - Oh come on!!! Look at her, she’s gorgeous. Seriously, I’d do her in the shed
Dave - You haven’t even got a shed!
Chris (laughs) - I’d buy one, build one...it doesn’t matter

Chris said he’d love to have Vorderman while she was wearing her pyjamas with her top button undone. I’m not sure whether this is what the BBC now defines as “early morning family entertainment” or not. Dave said that compared to the other piece of TV vintage bintage that is Carole Smilie she was nothing. I felt so much like I was in the boozer with Chris when he replied “No but Smilie wouldn’t give it up, she’s a family woman”. Rachel wouldn’t give her opinion on Vorderman. Dave told her to go on and “live a little”. Instead Rache did say she’d sleep with David Beckham, which Chris agreed with (he said he’d do anything to get to meet Richard & Judy). Next up on the *would you or wouldn’t you* debate was Wilma and Betty Rubble from The Flintstones (the link was via Pebbles, who did the original of the Gemma Fox song). Both Chris and Dave agreed it was no contest (Betty) although they said someone like Natalie Imbruglia should have been cast as her in the film version of The Flintstones, instead of that fat pig Rosie O’Donnell. After discussing Carol V with Dom (he thinks she tries too hard), Chris had a question for Jules.
Chris - Juliette, now when it comes to Richard Whiteley?
(Jules and Dave both laugh)


DAVE, CHRIS, DOM, JULES, ALED AND RACHEL - WHO FOR YOU?:>>>>
ImageImageImageImageImage
(The Contenders - Dave, Chris, Dom, Jules, Aled and Rachel)
Following the impressive numbers of texts responding to this discussion about Carol and co, Chris had an idea for a text poll - Who on the team would you most like to sleep with? The listeners would choose between himself, Comedic Dave, Aled, Rachel, Dom or Juliette. Each member of the team had 5 seconds to sell themselves before Chris opened up the vote on 81199 for VOTE CHRIS, VOTE DAVE etc. Aled and Dave’s appeals for votes both were very funny. Dave said “I’m a Taurus and if I was a girl I’d do me”. Aled said “Hello I’m Aled, I’m Welsh and I give great hugs”. Chris said he was worried for a second there and everyone in the studio including Chris burst into laughter at some sort of visual mime, which I don’t even want to think about. Chris said Jules was a “semi voluptuous footy fan” (or in other words “she’s got crackin knockers lads”). He also referred to Aled as a pillock, Dave as a fast driving, married, hairy legged Taurean, and Rachel as a dominatrix who would stop and critique you half way through snogging her. Rachel herself went for the sympathy vote and said there was no need to say anything as “I probably won’t get any votes anyway”. Chris said he was liking her clever tactics, although Dave noticed she’d cunningly left Weightwatchers out of her profile. Chris was appalled when Rachel quickly raced into a 2500 vote lead and he told everyone they’d be so disappointed.
Chris - Now when it comes to me, what can you say? Think of a word that sums me up Dave
Dave (straight away) - Fat
Chris - No, shut up

You may notice that the one person I’ve not mentioned so far is Dom, who was lagging way behind in 6th position. Therefore he frequently read out “Text Dom” during his news and One Road Travel bulletins, as well as going for the sympathy vote too when Chris played out his sad music. Dave called this pathetic. Dom said people should vote for him cos he was always very poor as a kid and was left out in the cold (which made him feel freezing in winter cos he couldn’t afford a coat). He also said he couldn’t play out as his Dad was wearing his shoes, and added that his education was so bad he learned to spell from nicked alphabetti spaghetti. This appeal worked wonders as he surged up three places and left Dave *I’m suddenly not interested in popularity polls* Vitty bringing up the rear (calm down Aled).

FINAL SCORES AFTER 18 209 TEXTS
6. Dave (1835 votes)
5. Chris (2022 votes)
4. Aled (2203 votes)
3. Dom (3205 votes)
2. Juliette (3226 votes)
1. Rachel (5718 votes)

WHEN DOM MET...C-3PO:
Well not exactly meet, it was via satellite link up. The reason for Dom’s interview with Anthony Daniels (the guy who plays C-3PO) is that he’s just being voted one of the scariest aliens of all time in a recent survey. He is also the only person to have been in all the Star Wars films, including the new one that is currently in post-production and will be released in September. Dom said the other four are also out on DVD this year. Dave was curious as to how Anthony put the C-3PO effect on his voice in the interview, as he said he wasn’t like that when he appeared in Holby City the other night. Dom put some listener questions to Anthony, with one of Chris’s favourites being the following;
Dom - One of our more highbrow listeners has said: how easy is it to take a whizz when you’re in your costume?
Anthony (in C-3PO voice) - It’s totally 100% impossible
(Will laughs loudly in background)
Dom - Fantastic, thank you for that

Fair play to Anthony for playing along as he also answered the cheese question too (something French) and recorded Chris some very special and cool “Master Moyles” and “We’re doomed” drops. Chris went on about them for ages and said he gets excited about C-3PO coming on the show cos his life is so miserable and dull off the air. Anthony quickly grew tired of Dom however (who claimed they’d bonded) after being asked if he bonds well with other metallic characters at the Star Wars conventions he attends.

CARPARK CATCHPHRASE:
JAMES a medicine student from Aberdeen 2
MATT who works for a crop company in Frome in Somerset 1

Daves Tedious Link
Reef Place Your Hands - Your hands are crucial in the art of sign language - Sign language is a huge aid to those with impaired hearing - Hearing is the job of two sensitive organs situated on the side of the face, called the ears - If you add a “b” to the front of the word ears you get “bears”, as in grizzly bears which are indigenous to North America - North America consists of The United States and Canada - Canada is famous for geese, Avril Lavigne and Bryan Adams - Bryan Adams shares the same christian name as former Westlife star Bryan McFadden, who has recently been sporting a beard - A beard is grown on the face - Face rhymes with Mace, which is a type of gas based repellent used to deter would be muggers - Muggers operate outside the law - Law first name Denis played for both Manchester United and Manchester City, something he shares in common with Peter Schmeichel The Great Dane - A Great Dane is also a breed of large dog - Large dogs urinate by * one leg, or having one leg * - and “*” rhymes with shocked - Which links us to Kylie Minogue and Shocked

**As the last song by Eminem overran past 10 o’clock, Chris was miles away and too busy calling Rachel a rubbish producer off the air (for different reasons). He apologised to Jo Whiley for <s>his</s> Rachel’s unprofessionalism and Jo opened up her mic to have a brief chat, about One Big Weekend and other stuff. As soon as she sounded bored and ready to play her first record, Chris nipped in before she cut him off...
Chris - Oh and I think the top ten at ten is 1982
(Jo laughs and plays Black Eyed Peas)
