Hello to all of my devoted fans... and also hello to you if you hate me and think my reviews are unfunny, sarcastic tripe. Cos you’re right...
*opening jingle plays*
Chris - I got loads of sleep last night and I feel grrrrreat!! How about you?
Dave - Knackered
Chris - Right
Dave got to bed at half 11 last night - which is now very late for him. He’s growing old fast. Moyles said he stayed off the beer yesterday, and even spent his afternoon training and doing a 4 mile run around London. He said it’s the most he’s run all year:
Chris - I left my wallet in the cab and I was chasing him down the road
Guh huh. In all seriousness, Chris said he ran for 34 minutes in total - including a great moment (just 4 minutes away from his house), when he tripped on a loose paving stone - and went flying like a fat Superman. The amount of people that would have paid to see that eh? Not me though - I love crisps (Joss Stone reference). Luckily Chris didn’t have any big cuts or bruises, but he said it’s the first time he’s fallen over sober in years - in fact he even wanted to cry and go off for an ice cream when lying horizontal on the tarmac. There’s quite a lot to get through today so let’s move swiftly on - although to be fair I could make a few thousand words up about any old crap... oh wait a minute I already do. Following on from yesterday’s Daniel Ber-dingfield exclusive, Chris had new singles to play this morning from Brandy and Britney - both rubbish but the latter possibly a grower. It’s a cover of the old Bobby Brown track My Prerogative from 1988 - and one texter was right when he said that old Britters sounds like Bart Simpson on the chorus. Dave said “good production” though, which to me always seems like a clear giveaway that the track is rollocks. Out on November 1st btw, although I know you couldn’t care less. If the reaction to Britney’s song was distinctly lukewarm - then the reaction to Chris’s Buzz Off choice of Ocean Colour Scene was ... colder than that. He picked their 1996 number 4 hit The Day We Caught The Train, which lasted for approximately pah, well near on 8 seconds. Dave, Rach and Aled all buzzed in straight away - and Chris said he was stunned. Rach said she can’t stand Ocean Colour Scene and that song in particular, Dave called it dull - and Aled agreed. Chris played a minute of it to keep the 63% Buzz On texters happy, but then took it off under Rachel’s instructions. I don’t mind that song to be fair - and that seems to be the regular pattern occurring on Buzz Off this week: Chris and me like the songs, Dave hates them. I’m not entirely sure that this is a good thing. Moyles said that because of Rachel, Dave and Aled’s lack of taste, the audience got deprived of the rest of that song... and had to put up with feckin Usher instead. 1200 abusive texts came in calling Dave, Aled and Rach “hopeless no mark losers” during said song. Some even called them “idiots with no taste”:
Dave - They’re all wrong of course
Chris asked what Rachel had against Ocean Colour Scene, and said that they were from round her way (Brum) - so surely she should like them...
Rach - But I’m from Kidderminster!!
Chris - It’s all the same though isn’t it? As Dave would say “you lot”*..
(Dom and Jules laugh)
Dave - I’m not a pigeon holer... oh that came out wrong
Chris - Well there you go (laughs and clears throat)
*The “you lot” thing referred to Dave calling the Irish “them lot” in an earlier conversation about where Damien Rice is from.
RUUD/RUDE HEALTH DISCUSSION AND THE BIG SPOT THE BALL WINNERS:
(Ruud Van Nistelhorse becoming Uniteh-d’s leading goal scorer in Europe last night..)
It started out as a throwaway line in Juliette’s 7:30 sport bulletin - but then dominated the next 15 minutes of valuable Radio 1 Breakfast Show air time. It was a pun she played on the “rude health” expression - calling it “ruud health” in relation to the horse faced one breaking United’s scoring record last night. To be fair she did use it in relation to a Liverpool story (which didn’t really help her cause) - but still there was no need for Chris and Dave to go over the top with the insults, saying that they had never ever heard of the expression “rude health”...
Chris - You just don’t understand your audience at all. Anyway, back to the classical music
(fades classical bed back up)
Dave - mmm
(Dom laughs)
A segway went by and Chris and Dave were then busy discussing co ordinates (don’t ask), when Dom interrupted them with this bombshell:
Dom - I have a rude health update
(Chris sighs)
Dom - Rod McKenzie head of all things news, has done a 28 second search on Google... and he’s 450,000 online references to “rude health”. Oh it exists!!
Dave - What old Ruud McKenzie?
Chris - What does that prove?
Dom - It proves that the expression is widely used in the UK area... Dom and Jules win
(See where the ball was in this full sized 143 KB pic)
The online competition has been running for a while now (with over 30 000 entries) - but today was the day that Chris randomly called back one lucky United and Liverpool fan to win tickets to this Monday’s big match at Old Trafford, and also get the chance to go out onto the pitch at half time and take part in a penalty shoot out. Richard from the Wirral was the winning Liverpool fan, who couldn’t wait for the penalties...
Richard - Ha ha ha! Fantastic! With 60 000 mancs booing me... I’ll have some of that
(Aled and Chris laugh)
Richard said his pens gonna go bottom right hand corner btw (just trying to psyche the goalie y’see). With Richard more than a satisfied customer, next it was time to ring the winning Utd fan:
*phone rings*
Excited person picks up - Hello??!!
Chris - Hello is that Martin?
Less excited person - Hello?
Chris - Is that Martin?
Even less excited person - It’s not you’ve got the wrong number, bye
Chris - OK sorry bye. I’m only joking!!!...
(pause)
Rach (laughs) - He’s gone
Chris - Oh he has gone
Dave and Aled - Noooo!!!!
Aled - Chris! How cruel are you???
Dave - He’s not really gone has he? Get him back!!!
(Chris and Aled laugh)
*phone rings again*
James - Hello?
Chris - James you idiot it’s you!!!
(all cheer and laugh)
James was from Didsbury (about 20 odd mins from here) - and quite rightly said that the whole “No Man U fans come from Manchester” thing is untrue..
James - Eh it’s a myth. If you say it, enough people believe it
Even as a non Man U fan in this area, that does still bug me. Oh and after that phone call, Chris said he is never gonna try and be a smart ass when he does a competition ever again (hmm..oh yeah). Aled said his heart just can’t take it.
OZZY, ALED IN SPEARMINT RHINO - AND ”THE STAIN”:>>>
(- http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chrismoyles ... _bhamguide)
By clicking on that link you can also access yesterday’s “missing clips” - all about the mailbox and posh shops. Not really worth the download though - I’ve gotta be honest. Today’s was better (download it here) - all about those amazingly famous Brummies who have contributed to f*ckin culture. Oh and Ozzy also added that no, he isn’t on some bung from the council. Tonight the team are all going out in said city, although Dom said he isn’t gonna be drinking due to his bad cold. The girl. Chris is still up for taking Aled and Rachel to Spearmint Rhino, but old misery guts Rach is still having none of it...
Chris (as brummie lap dancer) - Right have you ever had a lap dance before?
Chris (as Aled in his “innit boyo” voice) - No I haven’t
Chris (as brummie lap dancer) - Right no touching..
Chris (as Aled) - No worries there love
Chris (as brummie lap dancer) - Right
(Dave laughs)
(Find out what all that is about on Sunday)
Obviously summat to do with “the stain” - or MLS as they are becoming more commonly known by:
Dave - We’ve become a super group on the back of one unreleased single..
(Chris laughs)
Mouldylookinstain are (kind of) headlining OBW this Sunday @ 5:35, followed by the Lostprophets at ten past six in the “warm down”/”cool off”. Dave said he feels sorry for whoevers on in the second tent when MLS are on on Sunday. Hmm, I wouldn’t feel so sorry. Before OBW it’s the big Birmingham Book Signing @ Aston Uni today from half 5, with Chris building up to the fact by playing out snippets of audio recorded by Greyhead at the last book signing - in Leeds. Roll the tape...
Will - Anybody in the team that surprised you in how they look or how they are or how they behaved?
Random Leeds bird - Rachel is beautiful!!
*Chris stops clip*
Chris - Oh my god..
(Rach, Dave and Aled laugh)
Chris - Are you blind??
Aled - You should have gone to Specsavers!!
(Chris and Dave laugh)
Rach - You lot are horrible
As regards the others, Aled was called “smaller”, “quieter” and “dishier”, and the team in general “surprisingly sober”. Plus...
*clip of woman* - I wasn’t expecting Dom to have a moustache
(Chris and Dave laugh)
THE FINAL CHRIS MOYLES SHOW ONE BIG MINUTE TICKET GIVEAWAY:>>>
(More - http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/onebigweekend/birmingham)
The final one cos tomorrow Aled will be out and about in <s>Birmingham</s> some random part of the UK, on yet another edition of “Where’s Aled?”. This morning’s alarm was just before half 8, immediately followed by Dave pulling the plug out of the back of the studio phone unit - and consequently breaking the studio phone system. Him and Chris therefore kind of broke the rules by taking a minutes worth of calls each during the news and sport at half 8. Moyles did 4 and Dave 3 - with those scores added to the following: Dom 6, Juliette 7, Rachel 7, Aled 10 (unbelievably) and...
Chris - How many did you get?
Joce - eight
(collective “ohhh!!”)
Chris - No you didn’t you liar!
Dave - You never..
Joce - I did
Rach - How?
Joce - Fast fingers Rachel..
Dave & Jules simultaneously - Eh!!
Dave - Easy tiger...
Chris - What are you doing tonight my darlin’?
(Dave and Aled laugh)
That makes a grand total of 45 - 10 more than Colin *competitive prat* Murray’s big score yesterday. Chris challenged him to beating that this afternoon, before being interrupted by Dave and Rachel - both pointing out that Colin isn’t on today.
Chris - Fair enough. Who’s doing it instead?
Rach - JK and Joel
Chris - Oh jesus, those eejits! You’ll be lucky if you get one phone call answered!
(brilliantly impersonates JK and Joel passing the phone to each other in a “to me to you” stylee)
A FANTASTIC CARPARK CATCHPHRASE:
DICK & MICK two thick JCB digger fixers from Southampton 2
TED & TERRY two total retards parked in Tescos in Billingshurst 1
Aled - Hello Roy
Roy - Good morning..
Aled - I’m going to a nice club tonight, do you wanna come with me?
Roy - I can’t think of anything I’d like to do less
Aled - Ah..
(Chris and Dave laugh)
Aled - ... ok fine
Daves Tedious Link
Jamiroquai Too Young To Die - Die is the singular version of dice, which also means to chop food into cubes - “Cubes” rhymes with “pubes”, which signal the national transition into adulthood - “Adulthood” shares the same word ending as “Neighbourhood”, which was a 1996 hit for Space - Space is the final frontier - “Frontier Psychiatrist” was the title of a record by The Avalanches - Avalanches only occur on cold mountains - Cold Mountain was an Oscar winning film last year starring Renée Zellweger - Renée Zellweger shares the same first name as René Artois, the character played by Gordon Kaye in the TV series Allo 'Allo! - “Allo 'Allo!” is the way that the French answer the phone, while the Japanese equivalent is “Mushi Mushi” - “Mushy” in English is a word associated with peas - Peas are green, as is grass, which provides the perfect surface for a picnic, while picnicking requires a basket - and if you had a huge picnic basket, say the size of a suitcase, it’d probably be like a “case basket”, or if you prefer a “basket case” - Which links us to Green Day and Basket Case
BIG TEDIOUS LINK DEBATE - DIE OR DICE? WHICH IS PLURAL?:>>>
This was the big link after 9 - as the team discussed whether or not “die” was the singular or plural of “dice”. Real infotainment from the beeb. Chris and Aled made up one side of the argument, and Dave and Dom the other. Chris had £50 on him being right, and even rang up his brother Kieran (who knows everything) for the right answer. He wasn’t in work yet though, so instead Gareth manned the phones on the “dice information line”... and agreed with Moyles. Cue the mass celebrations and taunts from Moyles. Dave and Dom fought back though, with an Internet printout A4 essay on dice. This proving their theory that “die” is the singular. Rachel said her mum was bound to know (she's a retired teacher), so she rang her up and Mrs Jones went live on the air to speak to Chris and Dave.
Rachel’s mum - Well I’ve just looked it up in the Oxford dictionary, and it says “dice” is a noun... and it’s properly plural of “die”
Dave - Thank you, no further questions
Chris told Mrs Jones to be quiet and said he felt like he’d just been shot down in the blaze of glory. He rang up Gareth again for some moral support. He didn’t answer though, and the bloke on the phone said “he’s gone off on a walk of shame Chris”...
Chris - Well can you just say “I think you’re right Chris”?
Bloke on phone - Well we’ve reversed our decision and we actually think that Dave is right
*Aled gasps*
Chris - Nooooo!!
Dave - There you go. The tide has turned...
Rach - You should see how many people are phoning in...
(pause)
Chris - Well I would but Dave broke the phones!!
(Rach and Aled laugh)
Dave - Well granted that was my fault
QUICK MINI MOYLES UPDATE:>>> (thanks to Sarah Hillary)
- The team are off to Birmingham on the train for One Big Weekend after the show
- The big book signing is later today @ Aston Uni after half 5 (bring a book to be signed, as long as it's not a bible or porn)
- After that they'll all go drinking and might even get a kebab afterwards...wow.
