Kelly, I think it's actually on Channel 5 TV with Evans producing and Moylesey presenting. It will go out not long after he finishes his show on R1.

That'll be hard on Chris Moyles, as he often boasts about going to the pub afterwards for a few swift halves!!.
One good point though, he's got a good drinking partner now Chris Evans.
Unsure about the TV thing though.
You may sound good on radio but may not look so good on TV.

I'd say it wiil work.

The traditional values are now gone.

Moylesey has a huge following now and that coupled with Evans' innovative nature when it comes to the square box in the corner(the man's a Televisual genius at the best of times)

By "traditional values" I mean that with TV these days you dont have to look like a male model to get an audience.

Plus Chris Moyles has also already narrated Sky's hugely popular "The Villa/Uncut"

Blah... Blah.. Blah....

Moylesey has appeared daily on UK Play for a few years now. I think daily is too much personally, his humour is essentially radio-based and works incredibly well there. A lot of the time on tv he struggles, but he can still produce the odd gem that makes it worth a go.
Hopefully the increased terrestrial audience for C5 will give him a boost, it's hard to be motivated when you have an audience measured in hundreds.
Hopefully too, we'll get to see it in Ireland some day!

Didn't realise he appeared on tv before for years as claimed.

IF I had any influence over the situation (which I don't), I would maybe allow TV for the 2 Chris' once a week.

I used to be a great fan of Graham Norton, and looked forward to his weekly broadcasts, but now with him 5 days, I have lost interest and think he is struggling for material.
