Yes, he really is.

Gang members will be climbing a mountain at the weekend as practice for the big one (name undisclosed - oink), and will be testing satellite 'phones. The "donations" website will be launched next Monday.

The climb is for Comic Relief, helping people in the UK and abroad. Red Nose day will be on 13th March 2009 this year, if you wish to take part in something yourself!

Comic Relief is a British Charity created in 1985. One of the fundamental principles behind working at Comic Relief is the 'Golden Pound Principle' where every single donated pound is spent on charitable projects!! So, right there, it just goes to show how every little you can spare is VERY IMPORTANT. If everyone gave just a bit, it would add up to loads of lovely cash which can go to help others less fortunate. :-)

Just one example of a project in the UK is the Merseyside Anti-Bullying Steering Group : Bullying is a big problem for young people and can lead to huge amounts of distress and anxiety. The Merseyside Anti-Bullying Steering Group provides a telephone helpline and support for young people affected by bullying.

Please help, if you can, from next Monday, 2 February 2009.

I think, for this weekend's walk, the Peak District was inadvertently mentioned this morning on the show. Take your pick: http://www.hillwalkersgallery.co.uk/Mountains_-_Peak_District.htm

I actually do have faith in Moyles getting up Kilimanjaro, as I think he's one of those people who once they've set their mind to something, they complete it. The jokes and jibes on the show are merely a way of drumming up sponsorship, or rather 'donations'. I'm certain he's taking his training very seriously. Let's face it, noone would insure him if he weren't.

Good luck to Moyles and team Kili! He said they were off on the 28th Feb.

Re: who is going to be on the Show during Moyles' absence whilst climbing the mountain, Aled has written the following: "I've been working on this for a while. Today we got a presenter / presenters approved. I could tell you - but I should probably let Chris tell you on-air!

It's going to be fun...".

I think it will be Nihal personally.

Think that means they will have a guest takeover? Kind of? Otherwise it's usually Scott!

On Aleds website he added a nice little tease about it:

ALED:

I've been working on this for a while. Today we got a presenter / presenters approved. I could tell you - but I should probably let Chris tell you on-air!

It's going to be fun...

Today sees the launch of the Comic Relief stuff... Red Nose day = March 13th '09.

There is a shop where you can purchase items, or obtain sponsor forms and do something yourself!! www.rednoseday.com/shop. Stuff available includes:

red noses = £1.00, with £0.70 going to Comic Relief. Just 70p could pay for a HIV test for a child in Kenya. An early diagnosis means they can get proper treatment and stay healthy for as long as possible.

Gigglers = balls which laugh = £3.00.

Whopee cushions = £1.00.

Badges = £1.00.

Car noses.

T-shirts, etc., etc.

Alternatively, Sainsburys are also selling items, including red noses and deeley boppers (£2.00), which are hairband type things with red balls at the top of them.

TKMaxx and Oxfam are also involved.

Act now! Do something today!!

No!! Sorry!! I'm just trying to promote the mountain thing! Ha ha!! I've posted it on Nihal's facebook pages as well - see if I can get away with it. I've got the deeley boppers this morning!

Also, if you go to Chris Moyles' home pages, and go to the youtube section, you can see the lovely Aled waving in the background at today's press stuff!!

Chris Moyles is off to do a photoshoot today.

Check the following, btw:

From Wikipedia: The summit of Kilimanjaro is covered by a GSM mobile phone network, and was previously the highest point in the world with mobile phone service. WOW.

Quote from Dave today that he was "required here" during Moyles crime and then after the record Chris had a dig at him saying he was giving stuff away. I do hope it's Chappers and Dave in charge. I like Cheggars and it might be nice for a day, but I most like the idea of guest presenters. I take it he'll be gone for a week so...

Monday: Vernon Kay

Tuesday: Scott Mills

Wednesday: Greg James (Roland Herel could fill in)

Thursday: Chappers (hence forming Chappers and Dave)

Friday: Keith Chegwin.

Yet more interesting stuff from the papers!!

Jo Brand says, "This year Comic Relief are putting a real focus on mental health problems which, as an ex-psychiatric nurse, I'm really glad about".

The Daily Star says: "Top celebrities are out in force to push this year's Red Nose Day. Stars such as Cheryl Cole, Tom Jones and Alesha Dixon are all throwing their weight behind the fundraiser at a time when we are feeling the pinch.

While the downturn is affecting everyone's pockets, let's not forget those even worse off.

The stars of Comic Relief have promised a top night of fun and entertainment in return for a few charity pennies to help the World's needy".

I do hope it's Chappers and Dave in charge. .

Chappers & Dave would be great!!

Yup they've upped the anti with that bunch of celebrities this year. Phew.

Just listened to clips of Moyles on phone, into Greg James' Show.

He sounded really high pitched/like he was looseing his voice!

Some pictures attached (From G.J Blog)

    • I see Katie (and Mairead) were out with Jordan tonight.  I don’t listen to the show any longer, I am shocked they are allowed to mention Jordan.
    • At least I do not ask stupid questions…😂
    • I suggest you follow the other DJs too if so, you will learn the hardest working will go further 🤣
    • A simple check on his instagram would answer all your questions , he’s on tour with his wife and the team behind his podcast. I suggest anyone to follow the radio presenters, you will learn a lot about their other jobs and work commitments. 
    • Where is Jamie? It felt like he was settling in when Vick wasn’t on but he’s not been on since last Tuesday now. They’ve not even mentioned him, in fact they’ve mentioned Jordan more than they’ve mentioned him in the last two days.
    • Scott's show is on the road next week, live from Malmö in Sweden on Wednesday and Friday, ahead of Eurovision. As he's doing the semi final coverage on the TV on Tuesday and Thursday alongside Rylan, Gary Davies sits in for him on those days.
    • I don't feel there's so much overlap between M&M and Scott's shows. M&M is of a similar calibre to Scott & Chris on R1, with genuine laugh out loud moments and usually a show packed full of real interesting content. Scott's R2 show is IMO a shadow of the stuff he did on R1 (not his fault, he's doing exactly what station management want), with music and content to appeal to a much older audience.
    • To be fair, Scott & Chris would've still been fine on Radio 1. It was mentioned at the time that Scott's move was very much on Radio 2's part rather than Radio 1 wanting to move them on. That's the one problem that Radio 2 has, trying to appeal to such a wide demographic.. it's the perfect listen for many, but equally a turn off for many others. I think they have the balance fairly right.     
    • I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
