What age r u Andy B?? If u don't mind me asking, just wondered if I was younger than u..

Everyone on here is 'unofficially' younger than Andy! :rolleyes:

He can still recall the days dinosaurs had feathers, he has had breakfast with a dodo and survived the sinking of the Titanic! He just stood on Leonardo DC's head!

He loves us really - what's not to love?

Jono probably helps to generate at least a quarter of his material for the show.

Don't like Chopper anyway, he smells.... :bah:

Chappers is just jealous because it's named after Scott, perhaps if it was unofficialchappers he may be more interested?, well perhaps not!

It's just different strokes for different folks I guess. I'm not a particular far of World of Warcraft and I think people who play that are a bit geeky and sad. Yet I spend my days checking out UM CM.net, facebook, stuff to do with my iPhone and a website devoted to my fav tv show.

Everyone has to draw the line somewhere but I suspect half of it is put on and the other half not understanding the "community" feel these sites have.

It's like a soap opera this place at times!

Sometimes here, sometimes not.

It generates publicity for the site though. Scott can hardly go on about it all the time else the BBC is showing favouritism "other fan sites are also available" but by Chopper having a moan they can get around that because Jono's hardly likely to sue is he?

Well maybe when he goes to uni and is a bit strapped for cash!

Any team member is welcome to hate the website, it's not in their job description to like it. I never had any intentions to build a website for more than ten people or even think I'd have any communication with the team, so I see it as a bonus. That said the love and mentions keep my motivation going on what is now a much tougher job (and more of a duty!) compared to four years ago.

Anyway, you'd all have hearts attack if Chopper was nice about us. Probably best for your health he's mean!

I find Chappers hilarious. Him and Scott complement one another perfectly.

This website is just a source of amusement (and gags) for him. That's fine by me.

We don't talk about the Scott Mills show ALL the time for God's sake.

I can exclusively reveal that foir many years Chappers has been battling a rare addiction to internet chat forums.Up until a couple of years ago he wa sin fact himself a fully certified 'geek' and has had profesional treatment to get it sorted out.He is naturally desperate to avoid being tempted ino his internet obsessed world again so forces himself to pretend he hates anything related to th enet.

i know that chopper talking about us gets the site more noticed which is obviously good for the site.

... and im not bothered if he thinks we are geeks, i still like him & think he is funny, even if he isn't so keen on us or says he isn't, i bet he is on here all the time, scheming ways to take us down ;)

This is why we should always trust him.

    • OJ Borg is in for Trevor Nelson on the Rhythm Nation tonight (with Phill Williams on overnight). He's also in for Michael Ball for the next two Sundays (12th and 19th May). Ros Atkins (BBC's Analysis editior) is in for Jeremy Vine on Thursday. Another new name to Radio 2 is Oliver Hides from BBC Radio Wales. He sat in for Owain Wynn Evans yesterday and he's in again this Thursday (9th May) and Bank Holiday Monday (27th) Spoony in for Scott Mills from Tuesday 28th till Friday 31st May.  
    • Thought they would make it easier to get to this event. There's been no communication from the council or organisers about travel, even though there's talk of train strikes. Smaller councils have done a better job. 
    • They do sound good together, but I'm not sure Rylan will want the extra commitments. 
    • I have accepted Chris is unlikely to join Scott's show, and that Chappers has moved on, but I still think he could do with a co-host. The most logical solution, I think, is Rylan. He appears more often on his show than not, and they are great together. Radio 2 could lose Rylan's Saturday show and extend his reach by appearing during the week. I think they'd be great!
    • Tattoo took a while to grow on me. I couldn't see the fuss until weeks after. We have a split household here where the war on Gaza is overshadowing an enjoyment. I'm hoping for a protest of some sort. 
    • I've heard that the staging is very impressive.  That and him being "known" might prevent an embarrassing result.  I'm a terrible judge of Eurovision though as Tattoo is still so very meh to me.
    • Feels like after the success of Sam Ryder we are going back to our old ways. Olly Alexander's song is pretty weak. Anyone fancy our chances this year? 
    • The more time goes on the more you think if they'd actually put some thought into it it should've been Vick & Katie from the start. A proven pairing and Katie ended up on the show anyway - whereas Katie's even mentioned she was only asked to join after the Jamie announcement And even by Going Home standards on time off, it's quite funny that a few months in we still haven't had a full week of the supposed line-up - and that's with a 4-day week.  
    • I heard something about what is your favourite wood? Wtf 😂
    • Was the same vibe on the Easter Monday show they did too. Just random questions and the like…. Katie is definitely the glue around making the show listenable. 
    • Vick and Jamie together are quite… awkward. Random discussion seems to be at an all time high without Katie. Maybe it’s just that there’s a lack of features today.
    • Jamie not even knowing about the big weekend day and the fact he starts the show at 14:00 just says everything.
    • I still haven’t forgiven Radio 1 for signing Laing. Vick and Jordan was good, you could hear the chemistry on air 
    • I just want to add though that I am beginning to enjoy the show a bit more now that it’s settled in - I think Jamie (when he’s there) has calmed down a bit and then the new features that have been progressively added over the last couple of weeks have been good too.    I still don’t think it’s a patch on Vick and Jordan together, but it is now a show that seems like it could have legs into the future and once Matt and Mollie start in July, I could see myself sticking with R1 all afternoon.
    • I think it’s a slimmer line-up and seems to fall short in previous years where it seemed almost double that I know Raye is booked to perform and is a headline name. I think the issue with a station like capital they are dealing with a rather lacklustre year for pop and theres no real big pulls for pop festivals that are an easy sell out right now. I think Capital has had seen it’s Capital Ball’s as for any generic pop music listener I don’t know whether Bradley Simpson, Aitch and Paul Russel have the universality to play in a stadium even Sugababes think it would be better if they chosen a smaller outdoor location or Wembley arena.
