Ooh yes :D I will also be showing this to my sister's hubby (who is from the Perth/Dundee area).

I swear there is a point before the bus bit where he actually Moos? Love the way he just sort of gives up when the bus has lured him out of the way with the bright lights and moving doors :P

Professional eater of puppy dogs, baby heads and killer of grannies...

Will have to listen again.... Sounds like the driver is saying he could have him arrested, before opening the doors, then closing them in the guy's face again. Quick thinking though !!

Nope, he's saying "YOU"... it's just said in that awful Scottish way that somehow manages to sound threatening.

I think CXX666 will like this, as he will know what to do if anyone tries this on now!!

If that was me I wouldn't have bothered braking ;)

Seriously though, thats almost certainly a weekly occurance in any city. Fortunately I've not had to deal with any full on fuckwit like that yet, but the time will come. Fortunately for the driver its not really identifyable when it happened or what bus it was, otherwise he would probably have been the 1 getting in trouble for rolling forward to intimidate the guy :(

Yep. Really think it is. i am actually surprised "dealing with obnoxious passengers" is not part of your training..... also, some time back i was on a bus, and a guy held us up... He said the bus had almost knocked him off his bike. the driver rang the depot and asked someone to get the police. then this guy ran off.

Fortunately the ones I drive are fitted with at least half a dozen CCTV cameras so if someone accuses me of hitting them then the tapes will prove them right or wrong.

We got the obnoxious passengers bit during the training. If someone is having a rant about something just let them, don't take it personally and let it go straight over your head. Assaults, threating behaviour etc we get on the radio to control and they'll respond almost immediately and get another member of staff and/or the police out to where you are to help.

Mum my and dad were on a bus last Friday, when a guy randomly started to put his hood up, then got out the biggest block of binoculars in the World. Then he went down to tell the driver he had to let him off at a non-bus stop. The driver actually agreed to do so, but the guy still went on shouting "I ALWAYS GET OFF HERE!! THE DRIVERS ALWAYS LET ME OFF HERE!!"

Then he got off near a rock near the sea. On the rock was written "Please taken your litter home", even though it was out at sea.

Welcome to Ayrshire.

    • The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right 
    • I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes 
    • What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
    • He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band 🤣 how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio 
    • Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom. We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show. Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
    • As positives go, at least Danny said what the last song played was and upcoming song played was. Plus I guess in that link are perhaps ideas for content (asking listeners to come up with bands from things around them, things that have happened to them this week). That's where's the positives end. It comes across as no thought has gone into what Danny will say next. It gives me proper flashbacks to some Jamie Laing links (especially that one show where he was unexpectedly solo). It's ironic that for all the duos and trios on the station - the one show and DJ that is positively crying out for another DJ to help show them the ropes is left all solo. At least with Jamie Laing they learnt their lesson and he's not been left solo since.
    • How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out 
    • RPReplay_Final1713612277.mp4   You’re welcome
    • At a time when Radio 1 has surely lost listeners to Capital at Breaktast you’d be trying to protect the station so people switch back.  Certainly yesterday I didn’t switch back to Radio 1 at all.
    • Was abysmal…Surely Danny can’t be a contender for anything permanent when the new schedules are locked in I.e Matt and Mollies slot 
    • Alexandra Burke creating the phrase 'Elephant In The Room' whooooooooo
    • Zane Versus.... Whooooooooo. Do You Do Fridays? WhooOOOooo.  
    • The Capital Breakfast show is right up my street so far - such a fun listen. You've both been great on Radio 1 and are sounding excellent again on Capital A few quickfire questions: You've both been part of some great pairings on radio and on podcast - what goes into making a duo or trio work and sound great on air? Also, Chris - were there ever any discussions about you moving over to Radio 2 with Scott or had the Global offer already come first? Also how do you both go about managing that split between your radio 'you' and the private 'you'? You share a lot on air but also there's some understandably some stuff you keep private (famously Jordan doesn't 'talk about those things'). And how do you make sure if you're having a miserable day or are a bit low that it doesn't come across too much on air?    
    • What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
    • Have been reading this all week. She's such a brave woman. Just got to the chapter where she explains why she missed Scott's leaving event at Radio 1. She talks about leaving Radio 1 because her mum's health got worse, and wanting to quietly leave radio at 44 just how she first arrived on the airwaves at 18. Worth a read!
