I’ll apologise straight away then. I only heard just over half of this weeks show as I was busy writing up a Moyles review from last week when it suddenly dawned on me that I hadn’t stuck a tape in to record Chappers and Dave. Therefore, if there is anything of significance that I missed and you think it should be included in this review, then please drop me an [url=mailto:[email protected]]e-mail[/url] and let me know. I’ll then edit the review and unless you don’t want me to, give you a mention as well. When I did eventually join proceedings at roughly 1:50pm, Dave and Chappers were in the middle of a live link up with Newsbeat’s Jack Baine in Lisbon, who was interviewing a few England fans in the city centre. It’s there that he’ll be watching the game on Sunday night, on the giant screen being put up for fans without tickets. Jack is predicting a 1-0 win for England while Dave and Mark are both going for a 1-1 draw. They said it’s the first thing they’ve agreed on since arriving in Portugal. One rather optimistic England fan is going for us to thrash the French 6-0 tomorrow. I’ll have a bit of whatever he’s on please. I do think we’ll win though - I’m going for a 2-1. On a little Jack Baine sidenote, Chappers said that they dropped him off at his hotel in Lisbon last night, which is in the middle of the red light district. Dave said it didn’t half look rough round there, which I’m sure made Jack’s family feel even more at ease if they were listening. Today is of course the opening day of Euro 2004, it’s Portugal v Greece in Porto and Spain v Russia at Faro-Loule. Spain and Russia are Dave and Chappers respective teams in the big Euro 2004 sweepstake, so both are going head to head (as it were) tonight at the villa. They are having a bonus tenner bet on it, with a win for the Spanish meaning Chappers can’t mention Dave’s snoring again for the whole of their three week stay. The only other real bit of Euro 2004 chat today was an e-mail asking for the title of the classical music being used on the BBC’s current Euro 2004 advertising campaign, where all the players turn into artists. It’s Craig Armstrong’s Balcony Scene from Romeo and Juliet, which Dave thinks is the music his wife Emma wanted to get married to when they walked down the aisle last year. Instead though they had the Everton walk on music - the theme tune to Z Cars. Well the similarities between the two pieces are there for all to see...hmm. Today incidentally is Mrs Chappers birthday. That’s Mark’s wife Sarah in other words, although he wouldn’t give her age out over the air.
As the show was coming live from Portugal today, the one and only Rachel Jones was filling Neil’s shoes as producer. At one point she held back Chappers from beginning a link as she was sneezing frantically in a hayfever fit off the air. Believe me I know the feeling *sneezes*. Damn you pollen count. Dave is happy that the weather out there is improving steadily now, and he thinks he’s beginning to fit seamlessly into the Portuguese culture, just like a native. Chappers said in that case, why has he had steak and chips, pizza and then grilled beef kebabs for his three meals over there so far. He even asked for ketchup to go with his kebabs as well. Ah, the traditional British tourist (although technically I suppose he's Hong Kongese). Dave claimed his kebabs were just a bit on the dry side and said they were “crying out for ketchup”. His belief that he was tasting authentic Portuguese cuisine was only boosted by a text from Andy, who works for Heinz. He said they get most of their tomatoes from Portugal, leading Dave to believe he had sampled bonafide Portuguese ketchup last night. Chappers also wasn’t one to talk, he had omelette and chips last night. He argued that it was only because he arrived an hour later than everyone else and wanted something that would cook quickly - not like Rachel’s bungalow sized turbot.
THIS WEEKS FEATURES:>>>
Today’s Sporting Number One was chosen by Zoe, a flanker in the Welsh Womens Ruby Academy, who was training with her teammates at a gym in Cardiff when she was called up to speak to Dave and Mark about her choice. It surprisingly wasn’t a rugby moment - it was that historic night in September 2000 when Sir Steve Redgrave clinched his fifth successive Olympic Gold in the rowing at the Sydney Olympics. Zoe recalled the hysteria in her student flat at the time and both Chappers and Dave said they got goosebumps from just listening back to Alan Green’s commentary of the race, which was played just before the number one single at that time - Lady (Hear Me Tonight) by Modjo. Up for grabs this week on 3 And In was a pair of tickets to the last day of the Stella Artois tennis championships at Queens tomorrow, allowing entry to both the mens singles and doubles finals, plus an exhibition match between Boris Becker and Henri Leconte (he’s that eccentric old geezer). Paul, a self employed electrician from Stafford beat Lizzie from Hampshire to claim the prize. I was pleased for him cos he came across as a really nice fella and said that it was the first time he’d ever won anything in his life. There is gonna be a brand new competition on the show next week called “Portugoal Of The Month”, more details will follow in due course. The prize we know already though - it’ll essentially be a golden pass allowing the winner free entry and backstage access to all of Radio 1’s Summer Events in 2004. Chappers plugged this competition up to the vocals of Jet’s Are You Gonna Be My Girl, then hit the fader down by accident and kept his mic on - instead of the other way round. Technically it was a shambles. Rachel had her head in her hands at this point and Dave called it “rubbish”. A text came in from Jen saying that she finds it hilarious when they make mistakes like this though. Chappers therefore claimed he had done it on purpose for pure entertainment value, but Dave said it was really because Mr Chapman has yet to fully master the new international desk system they are using at the villa. After 2:30 today, Chappers did work the desk right and played the new single by Shaznay out of All Saints - it’s called Never Felt Like This Before. Both him and Dave were loving it and apparently it was Scott Mills' record of the week last week. It’s gonna be a grower for me I think cos it didn’t do much on first listen.
