For the next two weeks it's Chappers with Scott Mills Gold.

[Kelly]

Two weeks?! I thought he was only going for a week!

[Jono]

Two weeks?! I thought he was only going for a week!

And that's why I run the website and not you...

[Kelly]

To be fair, you are much geekier than me.

Still, Chappers doing the Wonder Years for two weeks should be interesting.

[Jono]

The Blunder Years and Floor Clearers.

[Danishgirl]

Scott Mills Gold should be good as I am still a quite new listener - haven't even been listen for one year - and there's a lot that I have never heard. Looking forward to it.

Chappers is only sucking up to us 'cos we'll be providing some of the content of his show for the next fortnight. Don't look a gifthorse in the mouth an' all that.

Haha, that's true. There's a reason those clips sound like vinyl. I bet he doesn't have a draw full of DVDs full of shows from the last year.

[Southern Gaelic]

Sounds like something. I only just started listening on Wednesday (thanks Kelly!) so it'll be nice listening to the classic stuff.

[Guest CancerForTheCure]

Is Chappers EVER off. I think he needs to sort out his life. As much as I love him, there's something wrong. Ah well at least we will have one of them on the show. And anyway, why is it the Scott Mills show and not Scott and Chappers - I know he's a sports reader but he contributes to the show just as much. Bet Jono will know

[Jono]

Up until recently there was Laura too, so really it couldn't just be Scott and Chappers.

Chappers has been a busy man recently, but it no doubt means he's entitled to two weeks off sometime soon when Scott returns.

[KingTutsWWH]

Not only is he working really hard at the moment, he's also going to run 26 miles on Sunday for a very good cause. Details about how to donate whatever you can are on the home page.

There needs to be a lead really - just like The Chris Moyles Show.

I love Scott Mills

[Jono]

I love Scott Mills

You've come to the right place then.

[YoppaDo]

'Cry for you' is number 9 on downloads alone. Yay for them!

Very strangely, I've actually enjoyed Fearne and Reggie this week...

[Jono]

That lass that used to do Scott's show, the one that name slips my memory, she's probably been quite good at sorting out the show.

I find it strange they give a patronising "well done" when someone gets to Number 1. As if they're actually listening.

The thing that still annoys me about them is the way that everything is exaggerated.

Reggie: 'H2O, this was number 2 for absolutely aggeeeeeees'

[Jono]

They want that Alan off of the voice of the balls to do it.

"And next up, it's Number 49, it's not been drawn for six weeks."

He just reads it off just like that.

Jono, I've done some searching on the interweb, and I've found this page which you might find helpful.

[Jono]

Ah yes, Laura, that's it. Thank god there's a fansite out there who can keep me informed.

[KingTutsWWH]

Oh b*llocks it's Fearne. Moyles just mentioned her absences. She said she's only missed 3 shows? Eh? Thought they said the BBC doesn't lie.

It's Radio 4 or listen again for the next few hours for me then...

[Jugalug]

Oh b*llocks it's Fearne. Moyles just mentioned her absences. She said she's only missed 3 shows? Eh?

Eh?

[Jono]

Way too enthusiastic on her own. She tries to get so passionate she stops mid-sentence!

[KingTutsWWH]

I can't believe I'm still listening. I must be a masochist! She shouts all the time.
