What is Chris' favourite joke he sometime refuses to tell?
It's a variation of this:
I was walking past a suit shop when I saw a suit that I really liked - I went in to try it on but wasn't really sure.
I went back the next day, taking Comedy Dave with me to see what he thought of the suit. As I stood outside and pointed at the suit I said "That's the one I'd get" - and Gabrielle (who was walking past) came over and hit me.
(that's the one-eyed git)

Chris used to be managed by BBME (Bruno Brookes Media and Entertainment) - the old 'Official Chris Moyles Site' was operated by them. Chris changed management companies (to The Richard Stone Partnership) and the site was closed.

I want a request, shall I email chris@chrismoyles.net?
If you email chris@chrismoyles.net it goes to Chris Harris the owner of MoylesWorld (and the chrismoyles.net domain). It does not go to Chris Moyles.
Several times a week I get requests for songs, 'shouts' for peoples friends, pervy emails from desperate women and abuse from geeky kiddies.
Listen carefully - to email Chris Moyles, use chris.moyles@bbc.co.uk.
