Another week. Scott is in Greece, so Grimmy will be keeping his seat warm this week!!

Katy Perry will be coming in on Wednesday and The Wanted on Thursday!

[Viv]

OOOooo. The Perry is OK, but the Wanted.... bleuch.

[rosie_posii]

The Wanted are actually really good live, and quite nice as well - this is coming from a non fan here.

[R94N]

I know someone who is a crazy fan of The Wanted. Personally I couldn't care less.

[stircher]

I know this is totally off subject, but have been listening to old podcasts and why oh why is beccy rapping ed sheeran not on the podcast!! or avaiable anywhere!! most frustrating, know she didn't enjoy it in her somerset style but was stilll epic!! grrrr

[rosie_posii]

I wondered that. I think it's because she really didn't like the way that one went so editted it out of the podcast. Trying on youtube cos they've got loads of scott stuff on there.

Anyone else notice Grimmy tends to have a lot more guests in than Scott ever does during the 1-4 shift? Scott gets the odd one every couple weeks, but Grimmy always seems to have big names in when Scott's gone. Scott always used to have a ton in from 4-7 and that ended when he got pushed to an earlier slot.

[Viv]

Yup. Noted as well. managed to tune in for a bit yesterday, and he sounded a lot fresher as well. Quite looking forward to another bit of the show tomorrow.

[Viv]

Today, rather. Not tomorrow! haaa

[Harkinson]

No men's semi joke today!! (Unless Grimmy does it)

Probably because (as Chris Moyles always makes jokes about) he knows them all quite well. He is apparently quite 'showbiz'.

[tvguy101]

Did the "men's semi" joke pop up (no pun intended)? I'd imagine if Chris Smith did the news update he'd throw it in, can't imagine any of the other newsreaders even attempting any sort of humour.

[rosie_posii]

I think it did, cos UM posted about it on Twitter at the weekend. Maybe someone did it then?

[Harkinson]

Think Grimmy said the newsreaders were watching the Men's semis after the 2:30 news!
