Sometimes because chris doesnt get on famously with the guests it can turn out to be funny as hell. I refer you to the CHRIS MARTIN interview, the funniest most dramatic interview I've heard him give, its all on the podcast from back in February. Every other interview cannot live up to that. But hey he hit back at his critics on air more or less saying 'tough'. I like the fact he doesnt care, Jonathan Woss is the king of the interview business, because his shows format is based around it. Moyles has his work cut out in making sure these interviews are lively and work without the use of a live audience and the glamour of a TV studio.
I think it also should be remembered that Chris has his work cut out interviewing people who are, lets face it, mostly not very clever, not very interesting and if they are awake enough to remember, are only interested in promoting their whatever. The David Beckham interview was different, because DB IS interesting so Chris could actually ask him proper questions - and his "whatever" was really just himself, so he was able to just respond and chat without getting pissed off that Chris didn't want to talk about his book, or record, or tour..... And also he was professional enough to be bothered to be awake enough to do a good job, and prepared enough to sound good. I think mostly Chris does whatever is appropriate to the standard of his guest. If they can't be arsed, an often they seem not to, then why should he? And I think he expects us to get that.
