Chris Moyles on BBC Radio 1. Rant.

Sarah Cox bored you? Try listening to Whispering Bob Harris.

Just out of interest as I sit and read this thread I am listening to ClassicFM which I find extremely relaxing.

I then spent the next hour being bored senseless by Sara Cox.

Sarah Cox is sweetly pretty, and I'd like to 'protect' her.

I'm merely pointing out the demographics, IMO there is massive listening potential between radio 1 and 2, I still can't really listen to radio 2 without falling asleep or sighing at the daily wail esque callers on Jeremy vine. Radio 1 just does my head in, music on a loop, same rubbish everyday and presenters who are afraid to admit they are past it, unfortunately for them there isn't a radio station to operate as an intermediatary between 1 and 2.

As for commercial regional. Don't even go there.

You are spot on there.

We are in our 50's and have very contemporary music tastes - we like a lot of the music you hear on 'One' but 'Two' is a dullathon - playing music that was rank when released or even if it was good 'back then' it should be locked in a vault and sealed for posterity. Sometimes the past is best left in the past.

Radio One daytime is utter cack - just boring, boring, boring celebrity gossip, pranks that would be an embarrassment in the playground of an infant school and the drivel spouted by the presenters about there eating habits, toilet habits and there *loody lives in general is beyond tedium.

I guess it goes down well with the Top Gear and We Like Million Dollar Drop Because Davina Is So On Trend crowd.

I do recognise that I am not the target audience.

Radio One, without the inane drivel and constant phone us/text us about eg the last curry you ate; that appeals to sad buggers wanting their moment of fame, would do just fine.

Crap football manager as well

I'm glad Moyles is doing crap, I hated him on Radio 1

Sara Cox used to irritate me when she was on Radio 1, but now clearly she's loving being a mum, that delight shows in her voice and she's become a family favourite- she's funny in a self -deprecating way which is indeed sweet.

 

[Archie_tect]

Simon Mayo's the best thing on radio... in the same vein as Johnny Walker, smartie stalker.

Can't abide Chris Evans or Steve Wright- both just self-obsessed with inflated egos, ripe for a fall.

 

[Mattonsea]

Sara Cox , Gemma Cairney are brilliant radio presenters. The rest you can keep ...

 

[screenman]

Boothby Graphoe is or was worth a listen.

I ripped it off from the Young Ones

NEIL'S DAD: yes, well, I agree with the spotty twerps on that one. Felicity Kendall is sweetly pretty, and just what a real girlie should be. Why, speaking as a feminist myself, I can safely say this: that Felicity Kendall is a wonderful woman, and I want to protect her.

Felicity, Felicity, you fill me with electricity......

How many "erect tents" did felicity cause? More than "test match special"? Maybe
