2 August 2006: Chappers takes over as Scott calls in sick

 

Where today’s show goes, nobody knows! Afternoon, it’s Wednesday and today the show was with Chappers.

Chappers: “Here we go again, it’s like Groundhog Day”

Last night Scott Mills was at the Madonna concert a quarter past 11. Chappers had a call from the management at Radio 1 this morning saying he was “apparently ill”. He was last seen leaving the concert on a coach with some gay cowboys in pink cowboy hats. Theories that were coming through included the baby mind reader had put a curse on Scott, or was he revising for Celebrity Mastermind.

Chappers: “I wouldn’t be surprised in 50 minutes time if my little orange friend pops up on Richard and Judy”

He also made it clear that it isn’t a cue for everyone to switch to Channel 4; he was prepared to inform us if he was on it. That never happened.

This meant Chopper had been left with the wonders of the Six Weeks of Summer competition. He thought it was fixed for him to have to do the tie breaker bit too, as all of the contestants from today’s show had got 2 points by the time the show had begun. To make things possibly worse, Laura joined Chappers for this feature. This week Moyles is off to Newquay and Felicity was on to try and win the competition. She was actually disappointed Dave wasn’t going. Felicity had to guess 5 things that Chris will buy from the fish and chips show. Chappers had lost all hope as Felicity only managed to identify two – fish and chips. That left him with a huge tie-breaker.

Felicity: “Ohhh… I was going to say sausage!”

Chappers: “Why didn’t you say the blasted sausage then!”

When Chappers shouts it’s very difficult to establish what words he’s saying, and it certainly sounded less innocent than ‘blasted’, but Chappers argues that’s what he had said!

Felicity, Pete, Dan and Daniel were all in today’s four way tie break. Each of the contestants were asked the distance between Chris’ house and Newquay. The distance was 262.43 miles, and so Dan is through to Friday’s final.

This is an actual picture of gold! Amazing!

Cue the Spandu Ballet puns… Mills Gold!

As Scott was off they were looking for some classic Scott Mills gold to play for the show. First of all at 4.20pm, we had Celebrity Call gold, where Michael Jackson called a zoo. There were also some Flirt Divert messages – Madame Beverly and John Saltage and there some classic Pizza Guy.

**** There’s more Scott Mills gold right here, in our show clips archive… including Pizza Guy! ****

Whilst Scott was frolicking with gay cow boys last night, Chappers was at the ‘Loaded Lock and Key Party’. He only went for the free booze, and they were each given three pairs of keys to give to a girl with padlocks. Not one fitted, but Chappers think it was fixed. He found it embarrassing asking girls to put a key in their lock. The only person who approached him was an actual News of the World journalist. Top stars there was the ‘Ugly Bint’ Grace off of Big Brother, Lee from Steps, Bradley off of S Club, and Callum Best. Gemma Atkinson was there, who’s ‘really really attractive’ according to Chopper, but he doesn’t like her new haircut.

During Colin Bailey Rae and even Your Call Chappers encountered a ‘barbeque’ sound over the top of songs. He wasn’t sure why it was happening, but everyone on the forum reported it. The engineers were unable to do anything, so the show was left with a ‘vinyl’ effect for the evening.

The guy who thinks he can slag off Gemma Atkinson’s hair… this is Chopper!

Final Thoughts?

An excellent show from Chopper. A show that felt just like Chappers and Dave, but with some actual features… and no Dave. May be Scott should reconsider replacing him, as otherwise we’d have been left with JK and Joel! More reviews from me tomorrow.
