They have got in trouble for not playing enough music. As far as I am concerned, the Radio One playlist is, on the whole awful. I don't listen for the music, I find the chatty bits far more entertaining.

I think it would be a good to see how long Chris could go without playing anything.

Music is the excuse of those who can't emtertain, or those who need a wee.

Chris doesn't need the former, but does the latter.

I like the current mix exactly, let Vernon play more records to make up for it, he's a nightmare, and does my head in !

Totally agree. It was annoying this morning to hear Chris play his first record at 7.10. I liked it the other morning when it was 7.17. 22 minutes of no music!

Definetly Agree, 100%, Whole-heartedly, without a shadow of a boubt. Yup.

No matter how random the topic, whatever the team talks about always seems interesting somehow. ;)

I listen to the show for the chat, the music gets in the way, and some of it is awful.

Yeah, that damn avatar is too goddamn big.

I don't think Chris plays enough music.

If I wanted to listen to non-stop records I would put on a CD! I love listening to the banter in the morning, I would be happy with NO records and just chat, the whole team are so funny and entertaining, its the team not the music that make me laugh on the way to work and cheer me up in the morning

I agree with cupcakes. And I've never understood the need for things like "Your Call". Why would anyone phone in to a radio show to ask for a record that's on the bloody playlist anyway???

Why so? I don't see that there's much difference, if anything surely the space saving aspect of MP3 players is a massive bonus?

Fair do's...... to each their own.

Pretty much all of my stuff is vinyl based, and my portable record player broke the other week.

On the subject, who can advise me of the best "vinyl ripping" software?

What's he called ?

I don't use an ipod, mines a generic mp3 player that, as far as my PC is concerned, is an external hard drive. no messing about losing tracks because of itunes.

Absolutely - and Your Call is a big con anyway. Remember when they used to do that thing where they played the "most requested" track? Are you telling me that the most requested track on Your Call was NEVER a track which had already been played in the earlier part of the show? Some coincidence.

8O Gosh...Hmmm...I wonder just exactly WHO told them off then? And where is the R1 rule book? Is there one? If so, where does it say that music in abundance/less talk is mandatory?

The Moyles is doing just fine...and I think he's probably got big enough balls to flip a bird to the lovely 'whoever' luvvey that has told him off 8)

Nuff said

If people want more music then they can listen to Mills or a local radio station. Surely the reason this show is so popular is because it isn't boring and scripted? IMO if anything they should talk more and play less music.

Oh I see......... so if I'm on my way to work tomorrow morning, and I'm getting fed up with all of the chat, then I can switch over to Mills, that's a relief!!!!

Your a mean man, you know that is not what was meant, rambo ignore him, you are right though is people would prefer more music they do have the choice of local radio, in the morning, or at any time, or the choice to listen daily to a more music focused program, one of which is Scott Mills, whose program is on from Moday to Friday 4pm to 7pm.

Just cuz your Fire is broke, don't pick on newbies, nasty nasty man.

I wasn't picking on anyone...... I was merely being pedantic and difficult.

Anyhoo the fire's not broke.....my chute just needs a thorough clean out..... !!!!! oh er missus.

Pedantic and difficult on their own or especially when combined are the same as being mean.

Ok, I'll stop being pedantic and difficult and hence mean, and I'll just carry on being damn sexy.

Well you do do that so well old bean.

I think Chris should have more Traffic reports, this morning the Tamar bridge was chocker, and I sat in a queue for 47 seconds, now this is important as a public servant they should provide me with advance notice of such things. They do on Plymouth sound, they have a biker on the streets of Plymouth, called Dave, who calls in and says there is a 20 minute wait on the Tamar Ferry, and a tractor on Outland road, if they can do it , why can't Mr Moyles etc. I don't listen to Plymouth Sound though as the DJ's are rubbish, and Celebrity Orgasm is just pants !!!!111 ( I have been wondering what !!!111 means, it means they didn't press the shift key on the last three presses!!!!!111, happy now)
