The official 'Ask Aled' thread (Part Seven)

Aled, why have you forsaken us? Don't you love us any more?

New Question:

Why does Chris, before "let's get ready to ramble" say "it's the half way point of the show..."? This feature is at about 9.00am, and as the show runs from 7.00 to 10.00, it is not half-way through... Am I missing something, or is this an in-joke that I have totally failed to get?

Any ideas?

Yup! I think that was the point - its not halftime.

Where's Aled ?

I found my own answer to the previous-but-two question in http://www.chrismoyles.net/mw/features.shtml

Quote"
============
Half Time (2004-)
The bit of the show at about 9:05 when Chris and Dave “kick back and relax” for 10 minutes by rambling about nothing in particular. And yes, that is two thirds of the way through the show, smart arse. This bit probably infuriates Moyles-haters, but Rajar (the radio listening figures people) once revealed that this hour is the most popular in the show, ...... snip snip
===========

I am still not sure why though. There must be some reason to it. Perhaps the first hour is pre-recorded!

by **Fathomer** » Mon Jan 15, 2007 10:04 pm

first hour is definately not pre-recorded! It takes them a while to wake up, bless 'em.

Baring in mind most of last year Chris got up at 6.52 am

by **Chagas** » Tue Jan 16, 2007 6:01 pm

Yep, the comment about the first hour being recorded was definitely tongue in cheek. It is great radio, but not a pre-record!

Aled,

With winter's icy grip firmly on the country at the moment and the threat of snow all round, would you consider doing an article called 'Aled on a Sled'?

by **Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 6:26 pm

Sounds like a regular feature to me...

What were the results of the trial?

Hopefully, by now, you'll have noticed the trial has been extended. When Chris asks for two callers before the 8:30 news you can also send "Quiz" to 81199 in order to take part and play the quiz on your own mobile.

It's as simple as we feel the opener sounds better off the back of some pips.
