Wasn't it Aled who said on here I think that they had features or whatnot planned for the next 6 months or so not too long ago? I would actually like to know what they are since nothing much has come out of that side of things recently.

[Nicola_Red]

Hasn't he openly said in the past that he doesn't like musicals?

Not that that precludes someone from being in one.

Yes, he's said he doesn't like theatre full stop. He talked to James Corden about One Man Two Guvnors as if the idea of a theatre show was completely alien to him.

I hav'nt heard todays' show. But has he in any way mentioned that it's for the good of the show?

I think it's for the good of his post-breakfast career, really.

[SAV1OUR]

Its like one of those conversations they sometimes have about what they'll all do when its over. Aled touring with The Saturdays, Dom and Dave folking it up. If I was him I'd want to be imagining what life after the show would be like, and he'll get more offers while he's still at the helm of Radio 1 too.

At least it's not 'I'm a Celeb'....yet.

Although that would be great for us to see.

Tony Blackburn does panto doesn't he?

[SAV1OUR]

A great title for his next book, should he choose to write one.

[yummytummy]

was thinking of going to the london show but not with those prices

£45 gets you the gods
£65 is actually £75 as £9 booking fee!!

[chrysostom]

demand > supply.

Oh no he doesn't!

Sorry.

Too funny! "Tony Blackburn does musicals, doesn't he? The Mature Third Book by Chris Moyles"

Here's 2 pictures of the guy playing King Herod on the broadway show - it's amazing how similar he looks to Chris (before he lost the weight).

[The Deadly]

I get the impression Andrew Lloyd Webber didn't realise Chris lost a load of weight before offering him the part.

[chrisjames]

There's only one problem about Chris doing this.Wasn't King Herod supposed to be quite fat? Andrew Lloyd Webber might want Chris to put on all that weight he's lost again!

Here is the real King Herod. http://www.bible-history.com/herod_the_great/ there is a resemblance I suppose..


I must say I'm surprised Chris didn't audition for the lead role though,being the saviour of R1 and all that! Also,I wonder what his mum thought of him playing the role what with her being a devout catholic!

[Nicola_Red]

Not to mention the fact that the previous two posts had already covered the issue of Chris' weight loss.

[Dexy]

What's this? Optimism? On this forum?! Get out!

fyp.

Me fail English? That's unpossible!

[chrisjames]

Apparantely the tour only lasts 4 weeks.Chris can easily do this and his radio show since they always take 2 weeks off in october anyway.That could easily be extended to 4 weeks if need be.Plus he's only singing one song in the show so it's hardly a major workload!Note that Dave did the DOI tour and still managed to do the show every morning.

My cat eats cat food.

[a-moron]

You don't need to quote him. He's right above you. You are thwarting my efforts to avoid all things written by CJ.

I do like the cat food line though, was almost worth having to read his guff. Almost. Don't do it again.

[SAV1OUR]

Here we go, a contender for worst picture you've ever seen of Chris:

Some positive reader comments too.

[Nicola_Red]

Bloody hell, how old is that pic?

[SAV1OUR]

It's like the 'Not-so-Golden Hour' - but with pictures. If I had to guess it would be 2005.

I would go for 2007 myself.

[The Deadly]

He's done a great job. Being on a similar diet and training programme to him I know how hard it is as regards not eating bad foods and he was a lot bigger than I ever was. He looks like a different person now.

[C-Kay]

Chris looks like he's having fun at rehearsals for the musical, and looks rather dashing too (I did look for a thread about the musical, but couldn't find one. Apologies of one does exist)

By the way, could I start new topics on each team member I.e Chris watch, Dom watch, Dave watch so anything people see/hear them on, or any upcoming appearances can be posted there, rather than in a new topic every time?

[Ilovematt]

Good grief Chris looks so different and so tiny.

I think this is what he has wanted for a long time.

[neilt0]

Jesus!
