It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Chris would begin todays show by talking about I’m A Celebrity. The first ever Queen of the jungle is Kerry *big breasts but short on talent* McFadden. According to Chris however, she has gone up hugely in his estimation over the last couple of weeks. Dave was glad she had won and Mrs Emma Vitty/Pontefract even voted for her. When Peter Andre was finally kicked out, Ant & Dec told him of Chris’s campaign to get Mysterious Girl re-released. After his mention on the telly, Chris got texts from Aled, Rach, Sophie his girlfriend, Rossy from Radio Aire and Greyhead Kinder. Note the lack of a text from Comedic Dave there, despite Daves claims that he thought he had sent one. The theme of all the texts was the same, “you just got a mention” “isn’t it great?” etc. All that is apart from the one sent by Will. That simply read “I told you - natural over silicon every time”. Kerry may now be the jungle queen but the real winner for Chris this year was of course Peter - and the phonecall Chris had been waiting for finally took place at 8.15 today. Andre was live on the show from the outback. He was very complimentary and thanked Chris and the show for all their efforts and kind words - clearly not realising it all started out as a bit of a piss take and that Dave called him egotistical, Chris called him a (door) knob and they all did impressions of him. Peter is flying over to the UK tomorrow and had a little date planned...
Peter (to Chris) - you mate...I owe you dinner
Chris *I’m now gay or owt* Moyles - Well, a few beers will do
Peter - Oh yeah beers, but I’m talking about dinner cos I haven’t had food for 2 weeks
Chris - (laughs) OK...I haven’t had any beer for about...8 hours
Peter - Oh really. I’m having one right now. Cheers.
Chris - Oh no don’t

Peter was chuffed Mysterious Girl is being re-released but hoped they wouldn’t be showing the old video. Unfortunately they are. Chris said he’d take part in any video remake if Peter wanted him to - as “Mysterious Bloke”. Chris played a crap ringtone of Peter singing Insania, which you can now get via http://www.insaniaringtone.com. Chris suggested Andre and his lawyers look into that as there could be a few bob in it in royalties for them. And after all the Andre chat, if you thought you had finally heard the last of him on the show - then think again. He’ll be a guest in the studio either Thursday, Friday or next week. Plus after all that there is the re-release of the single on February 23rd - ripper I’m sure you’ll agree.

WHEN JULIETTE MET GERRARD AND JONNY:
OK so not the snappiest of titles but very funny nevertheless. Last Thursday Jules was up in Stockport recording a piece for Football Focus & Grandstand with Steven Gerrard and Jonny Wilkinson at the launch of Adidas’s new Predator Pulse football boot. Dave said it was Bootylicious. After Dom’s big interviews with Tom Cruise, Renée Zellweger and (who could forget) Peter Andre’s dad, Jules turned to him for advice on how to relax the star into the interview. The way she did this was by asking questions about Leeds United, dogs and cheese. The perfect interview formula I think you’ll agree. Dave referred to them as “the questions that mattered”. Jules said Stevie Gerrard’s facial expression was unbelievable although to be fair he played along well. His favourite dog is a * Spaniel and Jules followed this up with what Dave referred to as “the sucker punch”. She asked him what his favourite type of cheese was. His answer was borderline genius - “Melted Cheese”. Jules said Gerrard was erm, the life and soul of the party. Wilkinson was a lot friendlier though. Just for the record his favourite cheese is mild cheddar. Jules asked him about his favourite Back To The Future Movie. He got slightly sidetracked talking about how much of a film buff he is. He said he’s a huge Matrix fan but is yet to see the latest movie. A big fan then. His excuse being he was out in Australia winning the Rugby World Cup for England, or summat like that anyway.

Ahead of the mother of all six pointers between Leeds and Wolves at Elland road tonight, Chris was wearing his old skool, retro Leeds yellow away shirt. Aled thought Chris looked like Pacman in it. Dave and Rachel agreed and both went off into fits of laughter just before Buzz Off (Rachel in her Muttley laugh).
Chris - Do you wanna do the bloody feature Rach or do you wanna stand at the back like Muttley? The laughing dog. DOG being the word. Scraggly haired old cow.....messin with me, go and eat a 1 and a half point bar
Aled didn’t escape the wrath of Moyles either....
Chris - I’ll boot your ass out of here
Aled - Sorry
Chris - Eh? Two words for you - Dave Pearce
Aled - No don’t do that to me
Chris - Do you want another two - Dance Anthems
(Dave laughed)

Buzz Off today was Big Mistake by Natalie Imbruglia. Aled was first on 1:15 (he said he would have preferred Torn), Rach was next on 1:58, Dave followed on 3:19 and the listeners finally buzzed it off on 3:37.

The Countdown is on to Valentines Day this Saturday and that has presented a few problems for messrs Moyles, Vitty and Bryne. Chris and Dom have booked hotels for themselves and their partners. Well Chris said his wasn’t much of a hotel, more like a youth hostel in Luton (easy access to the M25). Dom said he had the hotel “in my back pocket” and “safe” but he was having much more difficulty finding any restaurants with vacancies on Saturday night. Dave said his friend Billy (i.e himself) was having similar problems. Dave (sorry, Billy) rang up different restaurants all night yesterday but had no joy. The only available time he found was at 11:30pm. To make things worse, Emma (who was meant to be working Sat) is now off all day meaning no Man U - Man City cup tie on the box for Dave. He did make the admission to Chris that Emma offered to arrange it all months ago, but he refused cos he didn’t know who Everton would have in the Cup. As it turns out they have been knocked out and Dave is in big trouble. After her earlier admission she’s now into bloody mary’s, Rach was drinking again last night. She had a glass of Baileys with her flatmate Siobhan. Chris went running yesterday and hasn’t been boozing since Saturday (like Aled). Dave is now a day off the booze also. Rachel was scoffing pizza at 8:40 and Councillor Moyles decided now was a good time to give her some advice, especially about how to improve her diet and the long term rewards it would bring. Cue the return of Our Tune (the sad music) as Chris advised her on the pros and cons of her current Weightwatchers regime.

As I mentioned recently, Chris has been nominated for Best Radio Show at this years NME Awards. He’s up against Zane Lowe, Steve Lamacq, Colin & Edith and Ricky Gervais & Stephen Merchant (XFM in London). The awards take place this Thursday and are hosted by Vermin Kay. Chris knows he has no chance of winning so doesn’t want to go. Rachel said “it’s not about the winning, it’s the taking part that counts”. Chris said that was rollocks as it’s all about the winning. He said the only time that phrase was applicable was “if you’ve just entered an orgy contest or something”.
(plays jingle)
Chris - I don’t know where they hold those though these days....pardon the expression
(Dave laughs)

You can still vote for Chris to win here.

RUN YOUR BRITS OFF - DAY 2:
INSIDE THE BRITS VIRTUAL BACKSTAGE SIMULATOR - Nick a sick, vile, disgusting screwed up weirdo from Dunstable
SCORE - 5 (Joint first at the moment but if it’s a tie then he loses because erm, well he was just a pillock. Note to Aled - Don’t put callers like this through again)

CARPARK CATCHPHRASE:
SHIRLEY a biologist from Edinburgh 2
PETER a trucker who’s just left the army from Liverpool 0

Daves Tedious Link
The Verve Lucky Man - Verve rhymes with swerve which is what you might be forced to do if a cow were to jump a fence and land in front of you on a dual carriageway - A Dual Carriageway as the name suggests consists of two lanes as perhaps would a very small regional bowling alley - A bowling alley is somewhere that involves the wearing of strange and unfamiliar shoes - Shoes often have laces - If you add a “p” to the front of the word laces you get places which is what you might find on a map - A map is difficult to fold and in that respect is not wholly dissimilar to a complex origami puzzle - A puzzle is something you might do on a long train journey - A long train journey can be tiring and leave you feeling exhausted - Exhausted is how you might look having just completed a marathon - Marathon is the old name for Snickers - Snickers are packed with peanuts - Peanuts was a cartoon that featured Charlie Brown and Woodstock - and Woodstock was like the original festival back in 1969 where flower crazed hippies indulged themselves with free love, tie dye and veggie burgers in an orgy of non-conformity that had the establishment worried by the actions of the uncontrollable Wild Things - Which links us predictably to Tone Loc and Wild Thing

AND FINALLY
It seems after all the links I’ve given in my breakfast reviews to Chris’s mini-site at Radio 1 Online, they have decided to return the favour. Check out the links in the bottom right corner here. Also, I don’t want to seem ungrateful or anything but there is an “Ask The Show” feature running on R1 Online that seems awfully familiar to something that’s been on this site over the last year and a bit. Hmmm.

Sat and today are up
