So this was it then. The final two hours of Radio One’s 51 live from Portugal, hosted in the villa by messieurs Chapman and Vitty. There was no pre-show link up with Vernon, as he was knee deep in mud at Glastonbury doing festival stuff. With it being the final show from the villa, it was “everything must go” clearance time - with lilos, a football and the villa’s huge 8ft tall Euro 2004 posters up for grabs to the best texters. Some idiots on the text actually thought Chappers was being serious when he said Rachel was being given away too. The eventual winner of the muddy (and chlorine smelling) football was some bloke who said he’d give it to his cousin as a wedding present...classy. The posters were won by Tim in Bristol, simply because he had a van and could collect them (they wouldn’t fit in the post y’see). The lilos were won by Neil in Ellesmere Port thanks to his rhyme about Urs Meier, sinners and winners, although Dave said Neil might have been put off it by the fact that Moyles and Rhys “chunky Gutzilla” Hughes were floating around on them like hippos for pretty much the duration of the show. Most of the team were a little hungover today. Dave said he was still partly hungover from Thursday in a football sense, and partly hungover from last night in a beer sense. Chappers said him and Rachel consumed seven half bottles of white wine at the restaurant last night, which they enjoyed while settling down to see Greece beat France 1-0 on the telly. Rhys was doing his bit for European relations by singing “au revoir, au revoir, au revoir” throughout the second half, and even Dave admitted that seeing the French go out takes away a tiny bit of pain from Thursday’s defeat. The Portuguese weren’t going to let them forget about it though, as they tried to repeatedly replay the penalty shoot out after full time in the France game. Chappers had nabbed the remote though and kept trying to flick to fishing or what looked like the Portuguese version of Last Of The Summer Wine on other channels. This (as you can imagine) didn’t make him the most popular person in the restaurant. Eventually the Portuguese got their way (well it was their restaurant) and the Radio One team had to re live England’s defeat about a further 17 times.
Chappers - It was a shame cos the Portuguese Last Of The Summer Wine was a lot funnier than the English version
Dave - It was, their Compo looked great didn’t he...
(hits vocal on The Farm, which why Radio One are still playing I do not know)

As if it hadn’t been rubbed in enough, Jocelyn (who I think is Irish) brought Chappers a glass of water in a cup with Helder Postiga on the side. He is that sh*te Spurs striker who somehow scored Portugal’s equaliser on Thursday, and then compounded our misery by dinking in that horrible little shot in the penalty shoot out. The cup obviously came from McDonalds, as Mark said that one fast food chain are giving out cups with Portugal players on in their happy meals (therefore giving away the chain in question). Chris told Joss that he’d prefer it in a mug next time, as he doesn’t want to be drinking water out of Helder Postiga (so to speak).

ALAN HANSEN INTERVIEW:
Image
Just a few hours after the show finished on Friday morning, Dave and Chappers got in the car and drove down to Lisbon to interview Mr Alan Hansen in the same swanky hotel that they met Peter Reid in last week. It was very much the morning after the night before, and Alan said that he was still a bit fragile after staying up to the early hours with his English wife and children, who were unsurprisingly drowning their sorrows. Dave asked Alan for his assessment of England’s performance against Portugal. It’s hard to disagree with anything he said, and that’s why (Andy Gray aside) he’s the best pundit on TV. Alan thought England were really poor, the worst they’ve played in any of their four matches in Portugal. He pointed the finger at the midfield in particular, as well as the referee. He said that as much as they played poorly, they did show tremendous spirit to get back in the game and the referee bottled a major, major decision. Alan was pretty cutting in his verdict on the standard of refereeing so far in Euro 2004...he said it had been abysmal. Nevertheless though, he thought the England players would feel worse waking up than they would have done had they been beaten in the final. He said that that was because for the first time since 1990, they genuinely knew and believed in the dressing room that they had a great chance of winning the tournament. Alan didn’t assign any blame for the defeat to Beckham, and said that taking a penalty on that spot was like playing a bunker shot in golf...as Beckham’s standing foot sunk in the sand as he went to hit it. Next up was Chappers’ favourite part of the whole interview. It was when Dave asked Alan if he shared the view that Portugal could win the tournament if they got their act together up front...
Alan - Well Dave, I can’t agree with you there in the slightest
He said he wasn’t surprised Dave was an Evertonian. Alan said that he doesn’t think Portugal are good enough to win it, and added that he’d go for France or the Czech Republic. Given the fact that the Greeks beat France last night and Alan took the mick out of his prediction of Portugal, Dave said he was feeling slightly superior this morning. If Portugal go on to win Euro 2004, Dave wants Alan back on the show via phone to admit that he was wrong. From their position at England’s past two games at the Stadium Of Light, Chappers and Dave have been able to see the BBC box and what goes on in and around it. While Reidy and Wrighty pace around aside, Alan has to stay in the studio and watch the monitors with Gary. This is because he picks the half time analysis that is shown. Alan said that as soon as there’s a contentious issue or goal though, both Ian and Peter are back inside for a second look on TV. Alan said Wrighty was virtually battering down the studio wall when Owen scored (as he’d predicted) against Portugal on Thursday.

JULES LIVE AT WIMBLEDON AND THE REGULAR FEATURES:>>>>
It was good to here Juliette back on the show this afternoon. She joined Chappers and Dave live from Wimbledon, which is where she is this fortnight (reporting for Radio Five Live). Dave and Mark made a point of continually mentioning how there wasn’t a cloud in the sky by the villa, this as Chris and Rhys kept on splashing the pool. Jules said she had lots of splashing where she was too, but only because it was bucketing it down with rain (like it was where I was). To be fair to Jules she didn’t bite and kept fairly refrained amongst all the boasting and splashing coming from Portugal. At one point the atmos mics even picked up Rhys shouting out “Will someone get me another beer!”. Jules said with the lack of tennis she’s been keeping herself busy with a microphone, sandwiches, beer and some sausage rolls. She said pims are a fiver at Wimbledon and even a yoghurt and a slice of cake cost her £4.70 yesterday...what a bargain eh. She did a quick tennis round up too, saying that Tim is due on court later today but will almost certainly now be on tomorrow, as Wimbledon play on middle Sunday for the only the third time ever, essentially meaning that real tennis fans get the tickets on a first come first served basis, and not any suit wearing corporate types. Gotta be a good thing in my book...

(Jules - live at Wimbledon after 2:30)
This week was week 2 of Portugoal Of The Month. Remember the 3 best goals of the week are played out and in a couple of weeks time there will be 11 or 12 of them, from which the Radio One audience have to pick the top 3 goals of Euro 2004. If their opinion matches that of the special celebrity panel, then they win access to all of Radio 1’s Summer Events in the UK (basically everything excluding Ibiza). This weeks best three goals were Wayne Rooney’s first for England against Croatia (Goal D), John Dahl Tomasson’s long range dipping volley for Denmark against Sweden (Goal E) and Michael Ballack’s left foot cracker for Germany against the Czechs (Goal F). I cannot believe Milan Baros’s goal from the Czech Republic - Holland match isn’t there. Goals G, H and I will be on the show next week nonetheless. This weeks 3 And In was contested (although that’s probably the wrong word) by Lucy in Wiltshire and Paul in Basingstoke. Up for grabs were tickets to quarter final day on Wimbledon Centre Court this Wednesday (rain permitting obviously). Both were huge tennis fans and Lucy said she even has a pot of strawberries growing in her garden. That’s a pot of strawberries she’s growing in her garden, not pot she’s growing in her garden (as mistakenly heard by Chappers). Her competitor Paul was down at the local driving range, trying (in vain) to teach his son how to play golf.
Dave - Are you stood there club in hand as we speak?
(Paul laughs)
Paul - Er yeah kind of. I’ve actually got my wood in my hand as we speak
Dave - Have you? and a bag of balls in the other hand?
Paul - Oh yes
(Chappers laughs)

Lucy was selected to go first in the customary off air toss (unfortunate terminology bearing in mind the above discussion) so she answered the first question. In fact she got the first three right and won without Paul having a chance to play at all. He wasn’t best pleased and sounded awfully bitter as he accused Dave of making the questions too easy. Country House by Blur (September 95) was this weeks Sporting Number One, s chosen by Everton fan Joe to coincide with Frank Bruno defeating Oliver McCall at Wembley and winning the WBO Heavyweight Championship in boxing. Joe said he was there too, although he was just 13. Chappers also played this weeks number one contender Obviously by McFly, who’ll be guests with both him and Dave in Norwich on July 17th for Radio One On The Road. They’ll be live from the Sports Park on Earlham Road, with essentially the whole idea of the day being to get people fit. Dave said it was therefore obvious that Radio One would opt for the two best physical specimens at the station to host the day - him and Mark. After the show there’s also going to be a big 5 a side tournament, with Emma B captaining the Radio One girls team and Chappers’ the mens team. Also in the squad are Dave, Dr Mark and Colin Murray (so bring your shin pads if you’re playing). Full details on how to take part can be found here via Radio One ONLINE.

- Chappers and Dave ended their final show from Portugal as Chris did on Friday, with a big list of thank you’s. They also jumped into the pool simultaneously just before their last record, to a big round of applause and cheer from the villa crew (I think more for the show than their jumps)...
