Scott's mate Chris

Just wondering what everyone thinks of this Chris character? (Scott's friend)

Hes admitted on the show he's looking for work. Could he be the next Comedy Dave or some sort of Chappers replacement? To bring a more 'zoo' like format back to Scott's Show?

What do you think?

He's clearly a member on here isn't he. If you are - Hi Chris! Say Hello - Aled would.

I could see it happening, if Mills gets breakfast in July even more so. Its just how they find an excuse to employ him, usually sidekicks of djs work somewhere in the building already, either AP for the show or tech guy like Dave was years ago.

Three is the magic number. I don't think it matters as such who it is as long as they're quick with lines. It was good yesterday to hear Beccy joking with Chris.

It's funnier when one is left confused and the other two have their own jokes (whether it's Chris and Scott, or Beccy and Chris). We saw a fair bit of that yesterday - I seem to end up as dim as Beccy with some of the jokes though - had no idea about Iron Man!

Chris certainly isn't the new Chappers but I don't think that's a bad thing - we didn't want Beccy to be the new Laura!

My bet is that he's on trial with the team at the moment and if it keeps going well then he's got the job.

With all new team members on Scott's show it seems they are slowly easied into the team. Im guessing he'll be back on the show next week if not before. Still don't really know what job they can give him

I think Chris is a perfect addition to the show!

I was listening to a couple old podcasts over the holiday. Scott and Chappers had such incredible chemistry. I love Beccy, too. But adding another voice would be so much more fun.

Also, it would make the shows when Beccy disappears on her many holidays or courses easier on the Scott and US! :)

I wasn't sure at first, but he has grown on me now, and is showing warmth, which I like. :-)

we didn't want Beccy to be the new Laura!

We did really!! :hahaha: ;-)

I think initially I wanted another grumpy, mardy character like Chappers, because he was such a contrast to Scott (not that Scott can't be a moody b****** of course), but you know what I mean. But things are coming along fine now anyhow.

Quite relaxed banter. Although I didn't like the story about someone ringing a taxi to have spider removed?!?! I just use my dad.

I think he adds a lot of humour to the show! I literally fell off a treadmill at the gym the other day listening to a podcast when he and Scott and Becky were playing the word disassociation game (v embarrassing!). I love Becky, I think she's hilarious, but the show works better with the 3 of them to bounce off each other and Chris brings a hilarious naivety to the show as a whole. He's not another Chappers. He's not another Scott. He's not another Becky. He's completely different and it works, really well. Bring it!

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
