The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

Paul Turner did voicers for him pre Capital so its going back 10+ years.

This is brilliant

Best stuff was when Paul did spoof ads and puns at the top of the show. Pity Moyles never does big hallelujah-style intros like that anymore..

Those puns were blatantly a rip off of how David Letterman starts each show (Moyles even used the same music)... still very funny though.

Here's one from 98:

"It's Monday morning at 6:30 and now live from Ascot, it's The Breakfast Bit With Chris Moyles.

Coming up this morning, Julio Iglesias will be riding his motorcycle through our burning hoops of death, in our new feature... hulio hoops.

Plus we meet the Alabama flea who's just received a lottery grant to set up his own circus..

But now please welcome Mr Cutie pie himself ... Mr Chris Moyles!"


now we just get some sh*te music4 jingle.

Yeah, why did he stop doing that? He used to do something different everyday, then suddenly it was London everyday. I always thought they might have had complaints from stupid listeners who thought he really was live from random places, but never heard anything official.

The really long one where they went through a lot of countries, and then suggested buying a book from the book shop... They cut it down now. But it was good originally.

I think he needs some more daring ones like the one mentioned in this topic. Even something like "tune in a chop your knob off"
