Text 'Sleep' to Ozzzzzzz

Don't go giving Viv any ideas...

[TheEpicPlum]

Will neither of them be sleeping then, or will they take turns?

[Viv]

The build up to it is soooo boring, this may well be exactly what I wind up doing!!

[bmstinton93]

They get a 5 minute break every hour which they can build up and use all at once

[Tom.]

It doesn't seem to me like they'll raise much money as it doesn't seem like much of a challenge (as much as I know it will be)

[TheEpicPlum]

I'm just annoyed I'll miss my daily fix of Scott. *sigh*

[DarkAngelMJH]

Scott will be there, just with Chris and Dave also. Will be quite good for one show I expect, if only Chappers was there too...

[John]

Well I think this is brilliant. As a Moyles fan i'll try and listen to as much as I possibly can of this! This will be as tough as hell for them, even with the 5 min breaks. You cant really sleep in that time, so its probably wise to use it as a fag break! As someone who does regular nights, I can imagine how tough this will be. When I'm on nights, I'm often awake at about 6.30am that morning sorting Alfie for school, then Uni and studying all day often until 4pm. Then home to do family things before starting work at 20.30 through til 07.30. Then its probably a couple of hours after that before I get to sleep. So I'm often up about 30 hours. Going an extra 7 hours would be unimaginable for me, so I have no idea how they'll cope! And there really is little you can do in preperation for something like this!

I think this could be very very entertaining, their regular show through till the end of Scott's show shouldn't be too bad for them, but I think once the evening schedule kicks in they'll be feeling very bored. Shame I'll be having to sleep to get up for work the next day cos I think once tiredness sets in properly during the overnight shows thats when the hilarious nonsense will begin to kick in. Hopefully there will be a special podcast(s) with the highlights of it. Anyone know what the plan is for their show on the Friday, as I'd imagine they'd be in absolutely no fit state to get to work? I'm hoping for Vernon in with Dom and Tina, but I'm also wondering if we'll be having Scott on breakfast and Dev/Greg on drive.

Talking of Dev, I wonder if he'll bother coming in for his show if Chris and Dave are already gonna be in

[DC]

Didn't Simon Mayo do this?

yes he did, in 1999. i remember there being a big fuss about it at the time.

i know a lot of the people who haven't been listening to radio 1 very long will disagree. but it would be a nice touch to get simon mayo on the show, maybe giving chris a few tips.

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

I reckon when they get bored, they'll probably start doing more audience interaction stuffs, text in on random subjects, maybe even bring back some old phone-in game features?

[Viv]

Actually, bizarrely enough, when this starts, I think they definitely will.

[E*F*4L]

i remember the Mayo one before

i wonder what that dumb bitch who hates Moyles on twitter thinks of this :hahaha:

[cxx666]

Well, seeing as you mentioned it.....

SackMoylesNow Cecilia Bartholemew

Someone has just informed me that @chrisdjmoyles is to broadcast a 37 hour show for Comic Relief. This is some kind of sick joke surely?

28 Feb

Seems the silly old bitch fell for a bit of Toby Larone on Feb 5th as well actually. That brought a smile to my face.

[DarkAngelMJH]

I can't wait to hear this, will be downloading all 37 hours to keep too

[KingTutsWWH]

Much as I like Moyles, I'm pretty glad I'll be in Spain whilst this is going on. Timsk is gonna be tearing his hair out, or will probably be tuning in elsewhere - he's not as much of a fan.

As others have mentioned above, I too have already become quite literally weary of this endeavour. I have been yawning and feeling like going back to bed every time they go on and on about it. Clearly this is the point - to make us suffer in the same way that they are going to - Sorry, but I don't need that sort of 'mind trickery' to force me to donate. If I want to, I will.

Still, I'd like to send lots of good luck though to Chris and Dave (and the listeners).

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

To be honest I'm glad it IS Moyles and not anyone else doing this. At least it's not that insufferable and inexplicably popular bint from Bolton...

[Viv]

here's the hashtag #R1MoreMoyles - recently confirmed by Aled face.

[John]

The Boy Band more than likely will be The Wanted. (Just guessing here)

[R94N]

The Twitter hashtag for the event is #R1MoreMoyles, apparently, according to Aled. So use that when you're talking about it on Twitter Apparently there's going to be some kind of way that Chris and Dave will be able to see all the Facebook, Twitter and text messages in the studio.

[James R]

I think you may be correct as Reggie said they were 1 of the confirmed guests earlier on the chart show yet they were not mentioned directly by Aled

[Jugalug]

A computer?

[R94N]

A computer?

Haha yeah probably, I think Aled meant like some kind of software or something to collate them and put them all on one screen.
