Cheers Andy Mac. Just really makes you angry to see YOUR country which is part of Britain and pay the licence fee is totally overlooked while a country that isn't part of Britain or dosen't pay the licence fee nor receive any BBC stations legally through their radios etc is welcomed along as part of the British listeners at the start of the show.
-
Must say as someone from Northern Ireland I was quite annoyed as Im sure where a lot of Northern Ireland people were with Vernons opening link, which went "Hello Engkand, Scotland, IRELAND and Wales.". Perhaps Vernon should check who he's broadcasting too and the countries that pay the licence fee and make up Britain . Quite unprofessional and offensive to Northern Ireland.

No need for a thread though plus as you read on im not the only 1 poking fun a this thread
What is worthy of a thread then? I'd did'nt know that James not being Gregs real surname was common knowledge so started a thread about, no biggie.
-
And that Sara Cox is Sarah Cox and Zane Lowe is Alexandar Lowe...your point is?
They are there professional names for Radio
Just saying that aftwer listening to Greg for over a year now I was'nt aware that James was'nt his surname. Don't need to be a cock about it.
-
Am I a latecomer by just finding out that Greg James surname is not James but is Milward or something!
-
Haven't had the heart to really listen to the show since Chappers left. For me Chappers made the show.
-
Absolutely devasted that Chappers is leaving, the show will never be the same again. For me I don't really think I'll listen to the show really anymore, Scott really needs Chappers to bounce off and as others have said Chappers leaving would be like Dave leaving moyles which would be unthinkable. Also think it's a disgrace that his departure is not getting a proper build up, Chappers is a Radio 1 legend and for me deserves a proper send off and dosent deserve to leave like this
-
Totally agree, really don't know how the show can survive without Chappers, he brings the best out of Scott and Becky. When it's just Scott and Becky it's very bland. If I was Scott Id be doing everything I could to keep Chappers. Going by Scotts recent Twitter post that someone will quit in Thursday it would appear that we won't know to Thursday for definate who's going, I think it would be a disgrace if Chappers leaves in Thursday witout as much as a days notice. I really really hope this is a setup and Chappers dosent go or else that'll be the end of the road for the show for me. Chappers must stay, even if it's part time
-
I'll wait until the news is confirmed, sad day for the Scott Mills show if true.
-
Have to agree with Rik, IF Chappers is leaving then why is it being done in such a half assed way as if it was the teaboy leaving. Chappers for me makes the show and is as important to Scott as Comedy Dave is to Chris Moyles. Why leave it to 4 days to his departure, that is if they announce it on Mon. BTW Jono do you know more about Chappers leaving than your letting on?
-
Or could he Be heading to Moyles show to fill in for Carrie? Would certainly then free him up for the things he has to take off for during Mills show
-
It has'nt even been announced yet, was'nt mentioned on the show today and Becky has'nt referred to it on twitter again. I really can't see they can just give Chappers a 4 day send off, it just would'nt be right. Also I know Chappers does his show on ESPN on a Sunday night and has this new quiz show starting on ESPN and some occassional work on 5 Live but would that be enough to consider packing a steady Mon-Fri job in at Radio 1?
-
The thing that dosen't tally up about all this is that Scotts only on for 4 days on breakfast next week then thats the show off until 2010, so if we are to beleive that Chappers is leaving before the end of the year then are they only going to give the listeners 4 days notice? Surely with Chappers being as important to the show as Scott then you think they would make a big deal of him leaving and would have made this public a bit more in advance. I really would be devasted if Chappers left and would proberly not listen really any more as Scott needs Chappers and Becky for the show to work, the way that Moyles would'nt be the same without Dave. Hopefully this is just a prank, but I'm fearing the worst
-
Could it be a setup? Really hope so
-
Becky also posted on her twitter "that shouldn't have happened" after she posted about Chappers leaving but that's since been deleted. Chappers leaving in my opinion is a disaster for the show and one it might not recover from, itl be me finished with the show anyway

Ireland is an Island which is called Ireland. England is part of an Island called Great Britain. Much like Cyprus is an Island called Cyprus even though it is half Turkish and half Greek.
Belfast is in the country of Northern Ireland, Chris broadcasts to the whole of Britain which is England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Not the Republic of Ireland which isn't part of the UK or Britain as it's a totally different country with different currency and laws than the Uk. Pity some people on here don't know that much about the country they live.
-
Belfast is in Northern Ireland not Ireland, Northern Ireland is a country while Republic of Ireland is another seperate country, like England and Wales. So wheres this Ireland you speak of?
-
Erm no, Northern Ireland is part of the UK, while the Republic of Ireland is an entirely different country. The country the Karaoke is coming to is Northern Ireland, not Ireland. Can people from the UK not get the countries which the UK consists of right. If someone lives in Wales for instance I would'nt turn round and say they live in England.
-
erm I think you mean Belfast, Northern Ireland
-
If it's an hour from NI to the nearest venue surely that's no different to say me having to travel between three and five hours to each venue? They didn't say they'd be able to cover every where in four days.
Fair enough, I don't expect them to cover everywhere, it would just have been nice for the 4 countries of the UK to be covered. I feel if they really wanted to they could have covered us over here and the tour should have been set up so that the tour could have accomadated all 4 countries, Aleds excuses seemed this morning just to be a bit flimsy.
-
Can't beleive the tour isn't coming to Northern Ireland, always get left out over here and the excuses this morning were poor, as was said on the show, its a hour or so to NI on a ferry from Scotland so how Aled could say there was no time to get everything set up baffles me, surely it takes longer than an hour to get to Cardiff etc driving. Really poor to leave out Northern Ireland when your doing a tour of the UK and should it not have been sorted out the start to accomdate us, we do a pay a licence fee and listen to the show too.
-
Well the team aren't on this Monday anyhow
-
This sounds like a major cities one, if they're doing England, Scotland and Wales - and as a tour. Could be wrong.
Don't forget Northern Ireland too! We're part of the UK!
-
Why can't the Scott Mills team take all their holidays together like the Chris Moyles team, I like listening to the team all together. Disappointing when Chappers is off for a week on his own then Scotts off on his own etc.
Chappers on 606
in The Scott Mills Show

Anyone know why Darren Fletcher seem to have replaced Chappers on 606 over the past 4 weeks? Its not due to Chappers being on holidays or anything as Chappers is still heard on the station on Saturdays but not on 606. Really like Chappers and Robbie Savages banter togeather.
