Chris body language looked like he was a little nervous. I think everyone knows by now his Radio 1 and Virgin. Ross never mentioned his marriages to Carol McGriffin and Billie piper , plus all his affairs. He seemed to talk about how much money he made and how bad boy he was. I didn't realise he just played one record on one of his Radio 1 breakfast shows. Ross challenged him to play a Sex Pistols song, as is first song on his first breakfast show which starts on 11th January.

I can imagine very little worse on a tv show than Ross and Evans together. Why would he talk about his failed marriages Mark?

Yes, i thought Chris appeared very nervous. Maybe it is to do with wossy.
I think it extraordinary that Chris' boss did not say anything to him about playing just one record during a whole breakfast show! Wasn't it mathew bannister in charge at Radio 1 then?
In fact, i would have thought alarm bells would have been ringing during the show when he was going on & on without playing a disc. Why did no one intervene? that's radio one for you. as Chris said he got to a point where he wasn't delivering.

He has proved over the past four years on drivetime that he is alot more reliable now. I still would prefer someone like sarah kennedy for breakfast- wake up gently.
The idea for breakfast shows seems to be hyper- even Magic gets a bit manic at breakfast.
I was relieved that Chris said "No chance!" of him kicking off his breakfast show with the Sex Pistols.

Another interesting thing i found was that Chris said research had shown the average age of Wogans' audience is 54 & the average age of his Drivetime audience was 51. I thought the latter average would be slightly younger. Anyway, that makes me Mr Average Age for a Radio 2 Listener
