This isn't the right place to post it but as it's really the only active thread now, just to mention that I discovered an already-edited Early Bit show from 1997 on mixcloud so I've edited it further and uploaded to the sound vault. It came out at about 30mins and the sound quality is not the best as I had to manually amplify the volume, but it's still a nice little find.

Like the post above this is also not the ideal thread but it’s the only active thread now unfortunately but on the rumour mill Greg James has a big thing planned for Monday’s breakfast show on Radio 1. With tick tock clues and the schedule descriptions blank on the website everyone on social media and unofficial mills is pointing towards another marathon show. Will be interesting to see if it is and if it is whether Moyles will mention it or even go in and visit!

Might be completely wrong but thought it was worth a little mention. 52 hour show was one of the best things that’s ever happens to UK radio imo.

[VMPhil]

I’d be surprised if Moyles is even mentioned. Judging by passive aggressive Twitter posts over the years he appears to have burned most of his bridges at Radio 1 now.

[Nicola_Red]

Greg doesn't know what's happening and he's been told to pack an overnight bag. Doesn't sound like a marathon show to me (he'd have had to agree to it in advance to comply with R1's ridiculous health and safety rules), and if it is something like that, it's not being broadcast from the R1 studio. Also Chris slagged off Greg for playing Portugal. The Man after he'd been playing it for ages, so I really don't think he'd want to visit. I was amazed he recorded live links for the 50th anniversary show if I'm honest.

Sounds to me like Big Weekend related. They usually announce the venue around now.

Also, good to see Chris back on the TV with a brief appearance on Danicing on Ice this evening!

*cough* it's the borough in the middle of the country, you didn't hear that from me *cough*

BTW for those at all curious, it's an escape room. Nothing to do with a marathon show.

[MartinR]

Wow its quiet in here these days
afraid to say I’ve almost stopped listening. usually watch the highlights on the Facebook page.
Didn’t even know Dave was back of the airwaves untill I had a catch up on here

Had a little smile to my self the other day when listening to radio1 and Chris stark found a picture of Mr moyles in Greg James house during the escape room feature

Have to say I think the show is getting much much much better iover the last six months obviously pippa has invested a lot of time and increasing amount of content and drive of the show

The Show seems less drawn out than 16 /17 and is better for it

I agree, I listen most days now and enjoy it.. and while I don't usually listen for as long as I used to back when Chris was on R1, it's still good a lot of the time! (There are a few things that make me turn off though..!)

Fart gags lol I would think although i I’m not being prudish about it I’m surprised they get away with the money collection on the letters feature without explaining where the money goes LOL

Yeah I’ve always thought that’s a bit off. Especially when they start trying to drum up money for that Make Some Noise thing.

Show has been really strong lately. Even tempted to go back to 2016 and catch up a bit.

[Fledge]

The Veronica-the-cleaner "hello" songs yesterday had my in hysterics - childish and silly, but seriously funny.

[amykathleen2005]

So when this website's Radio 1 shows finish will they start putting up the old Radio X shows? Or start back at the beginning or Radio 1 again? Or nothing at all? I personally like listening to the old team shows from Radio 1.

[Chris]

I'll restart the Radio One shows probably

[VMPhil]

Has Chris ever explained why he uses David Letterman’s old theme tune to end the show nowdays? Going back through the archive it appears he first used it back in April 2017.

Don't think so but I think he's it's most likely he's just a fan , like a few other British broadcasters, Jonathan Ross, Danny Baker and Chris Evans I think are all fans too.

[ritchie]

Why is that Thomas guy (above) reposting my comment from ages ago word for word???

[VMPhil]

I wonder what the (presumably radio?) gig was that Chris was almost signed up to do. He was talking the other day about being paranoid about stuff (including the Channel 5 Chris Moyles Live/Live with Chris Moyles story) and thinking it might have been cancelled because someone he used to work with had told them to put the blinders on the deal… and he was right.

[JayE]

I’m way behind but I’m aware Chris has mentioned his contract runs out in September and the other day he talked about DAB vs FM in regards to TCMS and the listeners. I have a strange feeling he won’t re-sign this time.

Either that or he’s trying to get some talk going which evidently has worked.

[Fledge]

Seems his contract is always up soon!

[VMPhil]

Yeah you can't really trust him on that. He's made a deal out of his contract so many times now. It's hard for me to see where else he'd go in radio, they all seem to be enjoying making the show at the moment.

Evans?

Edit, was this Wednesdays show?

It was Tuesday’s show in the first half hour. He was talking about his friendship with Phillip Schofield and his paranoia over whether Schofield actually likes him, before talking about the job he nearly got. It’s about 13 minutes into the edited version on here.
