Boxing Day morning 2003 and Andy Parfitt for some reason only known to himself, had decided to give breakfast sportmonkey and 5 Live star Chappers his own three hour football show with his Comic Relief partner in crime Comedy Dave. Dave kind of summed up everyones thoughts in the first link.
Dave - “Many people saw our names appear in the Christmas Radio 1 highlights and assumed, not unreasonably, that it was a scheduling error. However it is true and yes we are here until 1pm this afternoon”.
And more shockingly than that, they were LIVE. Chappers had got up at 5.30 to drive down from Manchester to London to present the show, the only problem being that his wife had left the inside lights on, resulting in a flat battery. Dave seemed just to be pleased to be finally doing the show and said even he was getting bored of the trails now. Although the show was billed as a review of the years football in a football “annual”, I think the annual was referring more to the fact that the show is unlikely to appear again until at least next Christmas, if at all. Rather than a yearly review, it was more of a three hour mix of poorly thought out features, crashed vocals and thick callers who didn’t appear to know much about football. Nevertheless, considering that Chappers was pressing his own buttons after being taught by Spoony - it could have been a lot worse.
The special guests were a bit dull. Kevin Campbell (the Everton striker) was on the phone ahead of the afternoon’s big game at Old Trafford where Chappers’ Manchester United were playing Daves beloved Everton. Dave didn’t let Chappers get a word in edgeways and chatted briefly about Everton and his record label before it became obvious Kevin was eager to get off the phone. Ray Stubbs (predictably) was also on and said Chappers and Dave should have had a little wager on the game, despite Daves claims “he wasn’t a betting man”. The forfeit was that the loser had to wear full butler gear and spend a whole day as a servant to the other at their every beck and call. Dave took a bit of persuading as he said his suit was at the cleaners. He said “it’s not an excuse, it’s a fact”. He was finally talked into it by the fact that Chappers said he would win if it was a draw as well. However (needless to say) United beat Everton and Dave will be off to pick his suit up from the dry cleaners. Bolton fan “Vernon” Kay was on, which prompted a fairly unforgivable “Veron” gag from Chappers. Vermin was wearing a jumper bought for him for Christmas by Tess, who he revealed (to Chappers delight) supports United despite being from Stockport (which is City territory). He also said he was very much a nerd at heart and any electrical appliance fascinates him, even a key ring that lights up. (Note the lack of football chat going on here). Vermin’s new Radio 1 show starts at 3pm on January 4th and from what Dave was saying, him and Chris may be paying him a little visit that day ahead of the new breakfast show. Also, when you think football - you think....Scott Mills. He had been on the breakfast show beforehand and was on the phone around midday. He had been listening to the show while driving to his mums house in Southampton and said he was enjoying it...except from when they talked about football.
As well as United and Everton playing each other on Boxing Day, so were West Ham and Ipswich in Division One. Producing the show was Neil Sloane (a hammer) and also helping out (coincidentally) was tractor boy Stuart. Stuart’s dad was upstairs as he had got a new car for Christmas and didn’t trust Stuart to drive it, much to Daves amusement. Dave and Chappers reminisced about their Comic Relief Football Tour in March and played three songs that reminded them of their week on the road. They were Gossip Folks by Missy, Groovy Train by The Farm and I Think We’re Alone Now by Tiffany. The Farm they heard in Liverpool on a station that played the hits of the 80’s, 90’s and now (Century FM then - otherwise known as Robbie Williams FM), Tiffany reminded them of their last night in Southampton where Neil tapped off with three girls (they played a drunken voicemail message Chappers left for Scott Mills that night) and as for Missy, god only knows why they played that.
FOOTBALL SWAPSHOP:
Dave - “This idea is that football fans traditionally every Christmas get football presents, but what often happens is that they are bought by mums, aunties & sisters and at the risk of sounding borderline sexist - people that don’t fully understand what it’s about”. The prime example of this being the MICHAEL OWEN Soccer Skills DVD bought for Evertonian Dave by Aled this Christmas. Dave wanted to swap it for something else and encouraged swapsies on 81199. Chappers didn’t hold out much hope for an Everton Skills DVD as he didn’t think “Thomas Linderoth’s Guide To Passing” was in the shops yet. (Football gag - don’t worry). Tara wanted to swap a sick razor blade eating dog for the DVD, but Dave said the BBC didn’t condone swapping dogs. Ben had an authentic Italia 90 ball signed by Bobby Robson and Howard had been bought a West Ham Gift set, despite supporting MANCHESTER United. Danny in London wanted to swap David Pleat for Martin O’Neill, although Chappers didn’t think they could help him with that one. Dave never actually said who he would swap with in the end on the air.
TITTLEYS OUT FOR THE LADS:
This potentially award winning feature consisted of the forgotten sideburned one Mr Paul “Titters” Titley standing at a service station somewhere in the country.....in an elf outfit. The idea was to spot him in his yellow shoes and tights, red top, yellow scarf and green waistcoat - then approach him and tell him who was taking over the Radio 1 Breakfast Show on January 5th (plug plug). Titters said he looked like one of the left overs from a very bad version of The Wizard Of Oz. Unsurprisingly he was at Cannock’s Hilton Park Services and the first two people to find him (both called Scott) won Digital Radios as part of the Radio 1 Digital Radio Giveaway this fortnight. There was more Moyles plugging after a trail and Dave proceeded to crash the vocals to DJ Sammy completely. He told Chappers to start the song again and second time around Chappers proceeded to crash the vocals. Apart from a couple of similar dodgy moments, the two passed quite well for authentic Radio 1 DJs (better than Spoony in other words). Dave back announced a record by saying it was from the secret love child of Franz Beckenbauer and Les Ferdinand (Franz Ferdinand) and also applauded Amy Studt’s “fresh interpretation” of All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow. It does sound identical to the original but it’s much better than most of the dance crap on the playlist anyhow. (Useless info - Sheryl Crow actually asked Amy Studt to cover the song and provides backing vocals on her version)
3 AND IN:
Nick in Harrow (Watford) VS Martin from Chichester (Leeds)
The idea was fairly simple on paper. Three correct answers in a row equalled tickets to their teams FA Cup 3rd round tie (Watford v Chelsea, Leeds v Arsenal). At a wrong answer, switch caller. However, Dave and Chappers didn’t account for the fact the two callers put on air made Aled and Scott Mills sound like Andy Gray and Alan Hansen. Both were ruuuubbishh and with Chappers rapidly losing the will to live (like the rest of us) he ultra-generously gave them both tickets to the games and got rid of them as soon as he could. Just before the end, Chappers also revealed that he will be moving to afternoons with Coxy next year and not reading the sports news on Chris’s breakfast show. The news and sports readers for breakfast are still yet to be confirmed although I have a sneaky feeling it’ll be Dominic Bryne and David Garidiot. Therefore I doubt the show will become too football based as it might have done with Dave and Chappers, so non-football fans (there won’t be any reading this review but still) can sleep easy tonight.
