There was another seemless start to the show today as Chris didn’t have the Newsbeat fader up for the clips in the 7am bulletin. He wanted to explain to us all what went wrong but Rachel said it was too dull and technical. Chris said that Dominic and Juliet’s microphones override his but he has to open the fader to allow Dom to play the news clips. He blamed Dom but essentially it was Chris who screwed up.

Jules - Your fingers were in the wrong places
Chris - If I had a pound for every time I had heard that I tell ya...

After the news farce Chris said the show had recovered and was “thrusting on all cylinders”. Rachel said she thought the phrase was “firing on all cylinders”. Chris said she knew nothing about thrusting anyway. She attempted a reply but in the end just sighed loudly into the mic, which amused Chris. That was the second time Chris had upset her in 15 mins as in only the second link he said she had been making slanderous accusations about her Radio 1 colleagues off the air. She replied by throwing a set of headphones across the studio that missed Chris but banged into a load of equipment. Rachel said she was trying to defend herself. Chris asked her why she was listening on two sets of headphones today, one for the news and one for the rest. He asked if she had now been allocated a special set of both serious and jovial cans to wear during the show. She said it was too boring to explain why she was wearing them. Chris and Dave talked about last night’s football. Everton drew 1-1 with Arsenal and Leeds lost 1-0 at Newcastle. Chris said he needed Leeds to win and both Spurs and Wolves to lose last night. However, Leeds lost, Wolves drew and Spurs won. That was bad enough but Chris’s mate had challenged him to a £100 bet on the Leeds match and like a fool Chris took it and as a result is now down a hundred quid.

Dave was wearing a new shirt today, bought for him by Emma’s mum for Christmas. Only problem being that it was the infamous Cameron BB4 shirt and the one that Aled has. Dave said that that explained the fact that when Chris came into the studio earlier, he went up to him and tickled him under the arms, like he usually does to Aled to make him squeal like a girl. Dave said that this raised a worrying point for him as in the last two months he has now been mistaken for both Aled and Scott Mills....from behind. Aled told Dave not to knock it and said that he gets his best compliments from behind. This came a bit out of the blue and Chris said it was like having Coxy back “I get my best compliments from behind.....eh, Jon”. This got everyone laughing and Dave said that one thing is for certain, he’s never wearing that shirt again. After yesterdays excursion down to Leicester Square and his Alan-partridge esque calls for Tom Cruise, Aled was on another big engagement for the show yesterday...well maybe not. He had been sent to meet the latest contestants evicted from Shattered, with the intention of pretending to fall asleep during the press conference. He was right in front of one contestant and Chris had the audio of him snoring loudly. It wasn’t the funniest thing in the world but Chris said it could become a regular gag, just sending him to press conferences and asking him to fall asleep.

After yesterdays on-air rant about The Daily Sport “Stunnas” (note the a) there was a headline in todays paper saying they were outside the Radio 1 building this morning. Aled was sent out to find them but said all he could see was a couple of traffic wardens. Buzz Off was back at 7:20 with Chris opting for more of a laid-back, chilled out song today. Surprisingly it wasn’t Slipknot but was in fact The Sea by Morcheeba. It lasted close on 4 minutes in total. Rachel was first to buzz on 1:18, Dave on 2:24, Aled on 2:48 and the listeners on 3:43. There was an awful story in todays news that Chris ordered Dominic to include, otherwise his news chat contribution today would just have been “Jennifer Aniston is fit”. It was about Richard and Judy’s getting jiggy with it in their dressing room and Dominic said he had to stop half way through reading it as he’d just had a fried egg sandwich and the story was genuinely making him feel sick. The battle of breakfast continues. Chris had more audio of Wogan slagging off his TV advert and also the audio from his and Wogan’s feud being mentioned on BBC News 24 yesterday. Earlier Chris had asked Rachel which one to play first and she said “that one”. That straight away meant a tenner into the Little Britain catchphrase kitty. Chris said he wants to end the war of words with Uncle Tel and said that as part of one big BBC family the two should be combining to fight off other breakfast competition up and down the country. Chris e-mailed Terry about the possibility about a link up on both stations but Terry only read his P.S out which asked if he could have an autograph for his mum.

RACHEL WEIGHTWATCHERS UPDATE:
She lost 2 and a half pounds over Christmas which reminded Chris he needs to get some exercise done. He suggested to Dave they go out for a run later but Dave said it would be raining so he couldn't be arsed. Good point well made. It also prompted a text from Chris in Reading asking what Rachel looks like as he said she sounds really fit. Dave and Chris then described Rachel as a 5 foot 5 blond girl who wears a skirt. Chris asked Dave what he thought Rachel’s best feature was. Dave said “Her timekeeping”. You can see it coming can’t you...

Chris - Do you know what I think?...
Rachel - you’re making me feel uncomfortable
Chris - ...you’re lovely kind warm heart
Rachel - Aww thankyou Chris
Chris - ...and you’re MASSIVE breasts
(starts Pharrell/Jay-Z and everyone laughs)
Dave - something for everybody

While they were on the subject, Chris said Aled had been gesticulating through the glass about her huge knockers aswell. Chris gave away the signed Tom Cruise poster Aled got the other night on the text. The question that definitely wasn’t written by Dave ten minutes before the item was - “Tom Cruise starred in which famous movie?”. The answer was (of course) TopGun although some people got confused by the link with The Last Samurai. Anyway, someone called Sarah won. There was also a funny moment out of the 8:30 news when Dave, Rachel, Dom and Jules were all laughing at Chris (who he reminded gave them all jobs). Chris also pressed the wrong jingle in the middle of the Love Inc intro, prompting a call of “get down slick” from Dave.

CARPARK CATCHPHRASE:
KELLY a bit of a dippy PE student from Wolverhampton 2
CRAIG a furniture installation person (his words not mine) from York 1

Daves Tedious Link
Neneh Cherry Buffalo Stance - If you remove the Stance from Buffalo Stance you’re left simply with Buffalo which is a word often associated to mozzarella and wings - Wings were a group fronted by Paul McCartney - Paul McCartney shares the same surname as Stella McCartney who is a famous fashion designer - Fashion Designers make clothes - Clothes are sold in shops as are crisps - Crisps are the favourite food of Gary Lineker - Lineker rhymes with Spinnaker which is a type of sail commonly found on a yacht - Yachts are often raced as are horses - Horses are ridden by jockeys - Jockeys tend to be smaller than most adult people a bit like children - Children was a big hit for Mr Robert Miles - Robert Miles was born in Switzerland - Switzerland is the world’s primary exporter of cuckoo clocks - Clocks was a huge hit last year for Coldplay - Coldplay frontman Chris Martin recently upset Liam Gallagher - and Liam Gallagher is of course the voice behind the beautiful Live Forever by Oasis - Which links us to (you’ll never believe it) Oasis and Live Forever

FLAWS
* Crisps are sold in bags, not in shops
* Fashion Designers design clothes and don’t make them
* Gary Lineker’s favourite food is pasta not crisps (according to a text from his mate)

WARNING - Victoria Beckham is on the show tomorrow after 8. So if you’re not a fan of dull interviews then why not stick on your local tinpot and listen to endless adverts for the DFS Sale....it’ll be more entertaining trust me.

Sat and today are up
