Producer Amy moving to Radio 1 Breakfast

[Jono]

They've been rather coy about the actual identity of the Barry Island texter and he's not received a call back yet.

But I'm thinking it could just be a celebrity like someone off of The View, Paolo Nutini or Glasvegas. I imagine them to all speak a lot like him.

But they are all Scottish, and no-one from Scotland would go to Barry Island...

[Jono]

It might be their holiday home! I'd have a holiday home on Barry Island!

[Rob]

Or they might be using Barry Island as a decoy mun!

[Nik B.]

Or they might be using Barry Island as a decoy mun!

Possible Mun. I don't think it is a celeb Doot, but just some randomer or a UMer Mun.

[Craig_D]

I hope they manage to call him one day. I hope he speaks the same way he texts... mun.

[E*F*4L]

you mean you don't know :giggle:

it's Cheggers

[Rob]

I hope they manage to call him one day. I hope he speaks the same way he texts... mun.

I bet they talk really posh in real life

[MissCorsham]

It really sounds like the guys not realising he's texting radio 1, everything sounds like its suposed to go to someone he knows. Either way, a very interesting character, would love to have a conversation with this person

[kitty]

surely he must know it's not a normal text number! also how come only scott gets the texts?

do we know for sure it's a guy, mun?

[Rob]

do we know for sure it's a guy, mun?

I'm not convinced he is real at all. I mean Blodwin? Scott might have made him up for laughs.

[Hugh.]

surely he must know it's not a normal text number! also how come only scott gets the texts?

do we know for sure it's a guy, mun?

I suppose he could be using the longer text number that you can use? And just using the wrong number.

But can those characters really be anything but a joke?

[humbleworth]

Maybe its one of them royal doots getting with the people mun,they own barryisle don't they mun?

[Computer]

I don't think Scott's made him up mun. It's deffo some listener having a laugh!

[Rob]

They can't text him by mistake. Who has a personal number anywhere near 81199?

[Jono]

Call yourself a guru? You can text 07786 201 111 too. I use that number as it counts as a free number for texts on my phone as opposed to 81199 which isn't.

I didn't know that actually. How come that number isn't promoted?

You can?? That means i can text far more often! Have 1000 free texts a month!

[MissCorsham]

Its the "off shore" type number, for those who can't text the short number. They aren't going to promote the freebie one!

And yes Steph! It counts as a normal text number!

:woo::woohoo: This is good news! The amount of times that I have wanted to text Scott/Moyles/Greg and haven't done coz of extra cost! Glad to know this now

[Jono]

Hmmm... 07786 201 111 or 81199. It's a toughie on which one to say on-air.
