it was a particular sense of humour... it wouldnt work with the way the timings are now. mark and lard was for an older audience.

To Mark and Lard????

much as Ive found a liking for Scott, I wouldn't quite go that far, seeing as he doesnt really replace them anyways, Colin and Edith do, and funny as they also are at times, they are also no Mark and Lard.

It's wierd, never thought of them as comedy (Colin & Edith that is) but they are always under the upcoming radio listings on the bbc comedy website - http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/ . Moyles however never seems to be listed - now I know his show has slipped a bit, but it'd still say it was worthy of the "comedy" tag more than C&E

Mark and Lard were crap.Shows like theirs were the reason why i never used to listen to radio 1. Colin and Edith and Scot Mills are far better than Mark and Lard.

anyone who thinks colin and edith are better than mark and lard are complete idiots. all colin and edith do is get excited about things that arebt exciting! oh star wars lets go mad. play old songs that they think are "retro" and therefore cool and thet get over excited about it "oh my god thats brilliant" and how many times does edith say "genius" in one show?! thats so big breakfast circa 1997

same goes for Mills, and at the moment, I would say Moyles too.

next C&E or Mills will be doing a Cheesily Cheerful Chart Challenge type thing (like Moyles has already done before, except they'll actually be serious about it).

Posts like this just go to show why Mark and Lard shouldn't be on Radio 1. I wish their show had been moved to a different station, rather than splitting them up completely.

What a trade off, we've lost a blinding radio double act from the station but have a gained an extra listener called travis.


Colin and Edith and Scot Mills are far better than Mark and Lard.


Colin and Edith is a poor tribute act to mark and lard. Both are good presenters and would be good doing more of a jo whiley music orientated show as opposed to their current cannon and ball routine.

Exactly, do not mistake occasional actually funny moments like Colin and Edith have with Mark and Lard style genius.

also, lets touch upon a point made earlier about certain radio and tv presenters using the word 'genius' in every sentance.

worst offender has to be the arrogant and prissy fern cotton. The way she throws the word around with such gusto towards mediocrity as if she invented the phrase.

I'd like to take her to one side, explain what genius really means, who Issac Newton was, then proceed to recreate his 'light bulb' moment by dropping her out of a tree.

Wouldn't know as not seen her presenting anything, only heard her on Moyles when she's been a guest. She didn't really come across as arrogant on Moyles show tho... maybe a little bossy madame type tho.

I dunno about good presenter but she has always been a good guest on Chris's show.

I do think she is fit too... although it seems like I'm in the minority.

Nah Quincy had that one the right way round.... though their humour has a kind of intellectualism(sp?) to it that you probably dont see or understand.
