right every station going on sombre music makes any right minded person want to kill themselves. theres too much sadness in the world. what we need is someone to stop worrying and put a smile back on our faces. that man is moyles. mark n lard waited til 3 to stop their banter (when they end). switch on radio 2, theyre playing sinead o connor nothing compares to u. turn on local station, they are playing every breath you take by the police. theres enough depression, dont make it even worse.

[the_dr]

You've got a good point, but we need to be informed of these things. This is probably the most important day in most of our lives - and you expect Moyles to do some banter about Bob the builder and then say 'heres the news, its 3.30'? I'm listening to my recording of him right now, and it is strange - but he still maintains his crediblity. He couldn't have done a normal show, else he would be spoken to by management no doubt.<br><br>One thing thats strange is Radio 1 playing old mediocre hip-hop.

[Uglybob]

one good thing, shuts up dave pearce

[wannabe_mrs_moyles]

i thought chris coped brillianty and the newsbeat team are doing great.

[Uglybob]

twice u said that, i cleaned out a hutch today, it was full of shite an all

[Uglybob]

youre wrong, its not the most important day of our lives. thatll be when we get married, folks passing away that sorta thing. america is thousands of miles away, so let them grieve on their own.

[Simon]

I have to agree with wannabe i think (as i've said b4) that both moyles and M+L handled the whole thing brilliantly in a professional way. Congrats to them is what i say.

[Uglybob]

maybe that was a little insensitive so i apologize if that was a little too near the knuckle but the stations are being too strict

[Baza]

I suppose life goes on.

[Mikey]

Bob, although I don't think the DJs had a choice what they did - how can a show such as Moyle's continue when over 50,000 people have died, 4 commerical aircraft hi-jacked, and most of America coming to a stand still. <br><br><br>Be realistic!

[Uglybob]

50000 is an exaggeration<br>

[the_dr]

Bob - a film was made last year called Pearl Harbour, based on the true story, in which 1,500 died. 10,000 were estimated to be working in each building, plus 5,000 visitors. Thats 35,000. Thats a bloody lot of people. It is both stultifyingly ignorant and disrespectful to those dead to distregard those people. This is a human tragedy, not an American one.

[Chris]

remember that the buildings didn't collapse instantly .. there was over an hour to get out. Still bad though.<br><br>I've been up the World Trade Center .. it's a huge building, nothing to the scale it seemed on television.

[Ben_Jammin]

I think he did the right thing<br><br>I real feel for those people <br><br>he did do it in a sensible and very respectful way...<br><br>and man what a f*cked up day.... wow!

[Uglybob]

it was lazy, he couldve went somewhere with it

[Mikey]

Must agree with Chris. You can't grasp the size of it on TV.<br><br>I was there exactly one month ago and you just can't imagined them not being there. When you are there you realise how many people are in that building. It's destroyed such a fantastic city, and has had a massive impact on the world.<br><br>========<br>Wirelist:<br><br>Suffice to say that what's been going on on the radio is irrelevent<br>considering what's happened, but it's worth mentioning:<br><br>Radio 1: Chris Moyles sounding very serious indeed doing updates in between<br>records, with Newsbeat every 15 minutes.<br>Radio City:  Terrible bloke emphasising eveyrthing he says in the style of<br>Smashie and Nicie, as if he's enjoying what's happening.  Disgrace.<br><br>Jon<br><br><br>

[stevotrash]

in relation to your opinions Mr Uglybob. America may be a few thousand miles away, but the implications of this act of terrorism will be felt across the world. Many people have lost their lives, the world economy shall be heavily effected and a long term conflict has been instigated which will directly involve many more nations including the United Kingdom. This is a historical tragedy which will greatly shape the the direction of foreign relations in the next five years at least.<br><br>

[Rob]

You don't have to be American to know people who were involved. I lived there for 7 years.

[Uglybob]

so get on with it and stop bloody moaning then

[Burnage_Boy]

I totally agree with ugly bob.

[Lawrie]

so what chris moyles is supposed to do comedy when a major incedent and a possible threat to the worlds safety just to please his fans??? NO! chris moyles and the BBC did the correct thing by playing records as comedy would have been totally wrong especially it was only just a hour after the destruction took place..what you have to think of is "does he risk his his radio 1 future teeling jokes possibly about something where poeple have been killed..or does he play records and just say nothing..chris moyles and radio 1 did the 100% correct thing yesterday

[stevotrash]

Stop moaning? Many people have lost their lives as a result of this henious act. Should this event be swept under mat in favour of tittle tattle on jordan and booze related stories. <br><br>This tragic historical landmark will effect the UK in many ways within the next few months.<br><br>

[Lawrie]

100% agree with that.."think of others before your self" springs to my mind

[Guest]

[quote][/quote] "does he risk his his radio 1 future teeling jokes<br>    possibly about something where poeple have been killed.<br><br>I think it was more about Moyles being shocked and stunned as a decent human than his career, but I see where your coming from.<br><br>Uglybob - I understand your point but would you feel like cracking jokes so soon after the biggest disater (and I pray there will be no more) were ever likely to see.
