Chris Moyles' Fact File
Personal Life
Originally from Temple Newsam in Leeds, Chris had his first radio show at Leeds Hospital when he was 13.
He progressed to a local radio show on Aire FM at the age of 16, went on to work at Radio Luxembourg and became a Capital Radio DJ at the age of 22. He joined Radio 1 a year later.
Cool Credentials
After fronting the Radio 1 summer roadshow he was promoted to the afternoon slot in October 98 where he increased the listeners by 1 million in a week!
In May 1998, after only nine months at Radio 1, he won the Silver Sony Radio Award for DJ of the Year. The Sun Crowned him the DJ of the Year in 1998.
Did You Know?
Mark Lamarr threatened to kill him at the 1999 Brit Awards following a disagreement that had first started when Moyles was a guest on ‘Never Mind the Buzzcocks’
Chris is training for the Great North Run this Autumn and has enlisted Paula Radcliffe to help him out. She joined his personal trainer Gym Lady Jane for a training session in the park with Chris, Dave, Will and Lizzie at the end of July.
He has an on-going feud with the 3am girls, who printed his home phone number in their column in 2001.
He told Heat magazine in 1999: “Off the air I’m pathetic. I’m a pathetic little geek that just doesn’t have anything to say to anybody. I don’t like meeting people. I’d rather stay in my flat.”
The first album he bought was Nik Kershaw's ‘Human Racing’. He says the most embarrassing music in his collection are his 'Kids from Fame' albums. "If you get sucked into the Kids from Fame I don’t think you ever get out it. I was jealous of them because I’ve never been able to jump up and down”
