Rachel| 10:29 UK time, Wednesday, 26 November 2008
Chris is going for a posh lunch with the man he's is making his TV series with Dave is going for an average lunch, a boring meeting and then looking after his daughter Rachel is going to the gym and then packing for Sweden Carrie was going to go to "hot yoga" but won't now as she's feeling too ill Dom will be writing the OddBox and then self-medicating by going to bed. Aled will be going to playlist today and having a very important meeting
Good morning to one and all, as Aled said in the previous blog, it's Tuesday so it's my turn to write the blog. So, here are my thoughts of the day.
Did you hear the show today? Dave & Chris have crafted a new parody and I think it's genius. It's based on Britney Spears 'Womanizer' and is called Lorry Driver. Go to the IPlayer and listen to the start of the show. It was first track that Chris played today. Warning though....it will go round and round your head ALL DAY!
Today your showbiz Radio 1 team are doing these showbiz things:
Chris is going to test drive his new XBox Rachel is going to pull in her core for pilates (after a little sleep) Carrie is on the hunt for some drugs to combat her oncoming cold David says today is "free love free Dave his choosing Tuesday" which we think means Nicole and Jayne are out Dom is writing four festive Oddboxes today Aled is doing his record company meetings and planning a show from outside of London!
Good morning bloggers! Its a very cold Monday - you definitely really need hats, gloves, scarves everything today. Brrrr..And today have chosen to do some christmas shopping - I was thinking once you're married its supposed to be easier but not really - probably worse - double the pressies then do you do one seperately or one from both of you? And is it me or are men just totally rubbish about christmas cards? Do blokes just not bother? Do you know of a man who does? Honestly been like trying to get blood from a stone with Tom!
On that note Christmas is a month away tomorrow! Thats proper scary. I have tried to be ahead of the game but so far I just keep getting presents for Tom. At least he'll do well on the day then!
This is what the Chris Moyles Show team are doing today now that the show is finished
Chris has a lot of curry and cheescake to get through following Friday's successful cooking - he'll then try and get Vernon to play Call Of Duty 5 (and the countdown to training starts - 4 days to go) Dave has another day of doing assorted boring job Dom is going to go home and check the family are over the flu Rachel is going to spinning and then meeting up with her friend Caroline Carrie is doing some more Christmas shopping Aled is going to work on what tracks to put on Chris' cd - as Chris and Aled are swapping tracks they like
Chris is having a rest before taking part in Gordon Ramsay's Cookalong (tonight at 9 on Channel 4 - and Louis is invited) Dave is having a quiet Friday and then watching Chris on Channel 4 Dom has no plans other than watching TV Rach is going home to clean the flat - as Rach' mum and dad are arriving and they're going to see Strictly Come Dancing tomorrow! Carrie is going to spend some quality time with her husband up North Aled is doing the Surgery which this week is all about careers!
What showbiz antics are the team getting up to today?
Chris is going to the dentist and then spending the afternoon eating a cheescake that he made yesterday Carrie is going to the ballet Dom is looking after his sick family Dave is doing an assortment of things Rachel is starting her Christmas shopping Aled is working on the 12 hour birthday show ready for January the 1st!
Sorry this is late. Everyone in my house is ill. My son has had a vomiting thing, my little girl has had the world's worst cold and now my wife's gone down with that too. I - being a man - just get on with things and make sure they're fully dosed up with medicine.
Rachel| 10:07 UK time, Wednesday, 19 November 2008
Chris is making some beef in black bean sauce for his girlfriend and his mum, but won't be there to eat it as he's going out for a drink with the boss. Dave is looking after his daughter then going to a pub to watch the England game Dom is doing a secret thing with Hoop Dog Carrie is going running with Rachel and then watching the football Rachel is going running with Carrie and then visiting her friend Rachel Aled will not be watching the football he will instead be having a hair cut
Good aaffffternoon fans of the blog, hope you're having a fine Tuesday. Blimey it's cold outside. 4:30am starts are pretty chilly at the mo. Anyway, enough of the me talking about the weather...
We've just finished the show. It was such a laugh today. A combination of the Missing Word Game (the answer was 'Best' if you missed it), Dom was on the search for Chico (there's a lot of imposters out there), plus it's Tuesday so we had Rob DJ's pub quiz.
I often get emails from people saying that they missed the quiz, so here's the questions from today with a bonus. The answers are at the bottom of the blog.
1. NAME THE ARTIST - TORN - 1997 2. WhICH MEMBER OF THE ROYAL FAMILY CELEBRATED HIS 60TH BIRTHDAY LAST FRIDAY 3. WHAT FLOWS INTO YOUR HOUSE AT A RATE OF 50 CYCLES PER SECOND
4. WHICH FILM HERO WAS NAMED AFTER GEORGE LUCAS PET DOG
5. Cute, elite, bit eager for my home IS AN ANAGRAM OF THIS TV PROGRAMME (8 WORDS)
Chris is being dragged around the shops with his girlfriend which he's more than happy to do (!) Dom is being a professional parent because his son is now sick Rach is going to get her hair done and then she's going to pilates Carrie is going to attempt a bit of a clear out Dave is going to attempt something he's never tried before - it involves hot water a tube and one of his orifices (find out tomorrow) Aled is hoping to also have his hair cut today
Good Morning to one and all! Its all a bit Monday today..Tired, cold and not feeling like there's much to look forward to. But the perfect tonic to Monday Blues....yes Phil and Kirsty from Location, Location, Location and other such offshoots!
Such lovely lovely people..Definitely cheered me up this morning - absolute legends of the property world. If you missed the show and need some advice then listen again - they talk buy to let, first time buying and trying to get a bargain. And of course all about careers in the housing world. There's loads more information at Radio Online too.
Apart from all that chat it turns out we all love them. Dave a bit more than the rest of the team and I can safely say I wasn't the only one feeling slightly uncomfortable with his obsession.
Here's what the team are doing today - now that their day jobs are done for the day
Chris is going to watch Leeds Utd play tonight (once he finds an establishment that is showing said game) Dave has gone up North but will be back later Dom will be buying more medicine for his daughter who has some kind of fever! Carrie 's got LOADS of washing today - she's already done a white wash and today it's the turn of the colours Rach is starting her week with lots of excercise - today spinning, pilates and swimming! Aled is working on a secrect project involving our very own Dominic Byrne!
Hello bloggers - it's Aled here today writing the team behind the scenes blog.
I wrote the post, ran upstairs with my laptop and tried to publish it while in a meeting - unfortunately the computer wasn't connected so I lost it all.
This therefore is what the team are doing this weekend - from the best of my memory!
Chris is learning a new dish this weekend - find out what he cooks on Monday
Dave is going to be recovering from his hectic night last night, he'll also be watching his wife Jayne on that ITV Bingo show tomorrow night.
Dom is going out with friends for a late birthday dinner
Carrie is going up North this weekend to do some "outdoor pursuits" (whatever that means)
Rachel is getting to spend some time with her other half - they're going to visit family and friends
I'm going to gem up on advice on bullying for this Sunday's Bullying Special on the Surgery to get distract from the fact that my other half has left for Singapore for a whole month
Chris was supposed to be blogging later - in the event that he doesn't, I'm editing the video of "When Dave was surprised by Steve Guttenberg" while I'll post instead.
Chris will be getting the Golden Hour ready and tonight is Thirsty Thursday (we don't know what that means either but Chris says he'll explain it tomorrow on the show) Rach is meeting her friend Dana for lunch Dave will be working on a secret project Dom will be recording this week's OddBox Carrie will be picking Tom up tonight from a "railway station" Aled will be working on the show's next Outside Broadcast :)
Just posting a quick blog to say that I'm afraid, but Dom is too poorly to write his blog today.
I'll use our blog space to say that tomorrow we've got Jimmy Carr in tomorrow (great standup - I just think the jokes are too clever for me!), we then have a little surprise for one of the team members on Friday. (Well, you would have guessed that it's not for me!).
Hey, while I'm here, this Sunday, Radio 1's Surgery is about Bullying. A huge subject for so many people so this Sunday from 10pm on Radio 1.
Rachel| 09:55 UK time, Wednesday, 12 November 2008
Chris has a very busy day of highs and lows - starting off with Call Of Duty 5 and then onto the dentist for an hour of Hell Rachel is having a day of sleeping, excercising and hopefully seeing her friend Dana Dom is going to go home and rest Dave is making the most of an empty house and will be having "a kip" Carrie is going on a bulb run as many of her light bulbs have gone around her house Aled is going to sit in the audience for tonight's final of Scissorhands.
Chris is clearing up some home things and getting ready for his trip to the dentist tomorrow Carrie is doing some washing and having a little sleep Dom is having a power nap ("like most American women" - whatever that means) Dave is doing some Scandanavian furniture torture today Rach is back doing the pilates today! Aled is trying to work out how on YouTube and is having his Record company appointments.
Its a truly stinky Monday - cold and pouring with rain! But at least we have a team birthday to cheer us all up! Its the lovely dog blanket shirt wearing main man himself Dominic Byrne's today! So that gave us all an excuse to dress up as Bono and do a birthday message - with hilarious and not so funny consequences - hats off to Andy P's black Bono. Very good! We so nearly got him this year as well - truly honestly came so close...Rach even had to leave a hilarious answerphone message - if that is Bono calling speak after the beep and leave a gap so we can edit it!! Priceless.
Chris has got a meeting at his house at lunchtime and then he's cooking for his good friend Sandy this evening Dave is going back to see Andrew Lloyd Webber for a callback * Dom is going back to see Andrew Lloyd Webber for a callback * (he'll then be celebrating his birthday) Carrie has loads of washing to do Rachel is going to the gym and sleep (although not IN the gym) Aled didn't get much sleep inbetween last night's Surgery show and being in early this morning to help organise Dom's birthday
Comedy Dave| 16:56 UK time, Thursday, 6 November 2008
Hi Thursday fans. It's Dave here back from the near death experience that saw my insides forcibly evacuated by some horrible bug that was hiding inside my shepherd's pie or somewhere else maybe.
Anyway, the good news is that I'm still here, although I'm not fully up to speed with my eating, which is a shame because tonight I'm giving out an award at the Student Radio Awards thingies with Chappers where there will be free scran on offer.
Whether I will be able to eat any of it remains to be seen, but I'll see how I get on. That's probably not the most important part of the evening, but I like to try and see things from my own personal perspective.
Chris is doing the Golden Hour for tomorrow and is tempted to go for a drink this evening (the whole team told him not to!) Dave will be trying to eat today and then tidying the house before 'the wife' comes back from Manchester Dom will be recording the new Oddbox Rachel is going ice skating with Carrie this evening Carrie is going ice skating with Rachel this evening Aled is working on a very special Chris Moyles Show for January the 1st!
It's Wednesday which means it's my turn to say hi and write stuff and generally go on a bit! So, sadly Comedy Dave is still of sick (how sick is he? very sick - he's in bed with his si......etc). He managed to have some soup yesterday but it seems that was too much for his stomach and up it came again. Not nice and get well soon!
Chris is going to the dentist (oh no!)
Dave.. Comedy Cheggers is hosting the Children's BAFTAs Dom is going to have a few beers with a mate who's just had a baby girl! Rachel was going to go for a run but might postpone it as it's raining Carrie has gone to a Lewis Hamilton press conference where she may interview a celebrity - tune in tomorrow to find out who Aled is meeting the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Trust who are having a tour of Radio 1 today.
Morning everyone, we've just finished the show meeting so I thought I should post my blog now. After 3 and a half hours of madness, I'm now the only person sat in the studio typing away. It's quite nice.
Thought I'd give you a quick update on Dave. He's been off sick for the last few days with a really nasty sickness bug. He called into the show at 9:30am and in a very weak voice said that he hopes to be back tomorrow. It's been strange without Dave. It's always weird when one of the team members is away. I think we get so used to everyone being around that you don't realise what a big contribution they make until they're off. Both Dom and Aled have attempted tedious link and not been massively successful! Go to about 9:20am on listen again and hear Aled trying it. It's pretty funny in a carcrash radio kind of way.
Chris is seeing his mum, and then tonight is Burger and Bond night. Dave is getting better and will hopefully be in tomorrow. Dom is celebrating his daughter's 3rd birthday today Rachel is attending her pilates class tonight. Carrie was supposed to be interviewing a hot rugby player but it's not happening now and will be watching football instead Aled is very excited about tonight's US election so will be staying up to watch the results coming in.
I don't have any nails left! Thanks to a certain lewis hamilton. Can't believe he made it soooo stressful for everyone! Really thought he'd messed up - then omg - in the last 2 corners he got it! The pictures from the Ferrari camp were just priceless. They thought it was in the bag then our Lewis nipped in to steal it - Awesome - although is he seriously going out with Lisa Simpson? I mean Nicole looks great and she can sing but her normal speaking voice - very weird!
Chris is having a meeting with Sandy who makes the show's jingles and it's Day 1 of his month off the booze and going to The Killers Dave is going to spend the day in bed getting better Rachel is having a meeting with Sandy and then having some excercise Carrie is tidying her flat and circuit training Dom is preparing for his lovely daughter's birthday which is tomorrow Aled is having a meeting with Sandy and then he's going to get his cuts on his legs looked at
