When Chris Moyles announced he was leaving his breakfast show at the BBC in 2012 there was one phrase he kept repeating.
‘We have had the best time ever.’
But who did he mean by ‘we’? Having hailed himself as the ‘Saviour of Radio 1’, he no doubt imagined he was speaking for a vast team of producers, runners, researchers and execs at the station and the wider Beeb.
But that was a matter of opinion because in reality, I am told, by the end of his eight years at the helm the only people still thinking they were having a good time were Moyles himself and a small circle around him who worked overtime to keep a lid on his ‘tw**ish’ and ‘entitled’ behaviour.
‘It was like he got a kick out of making people uncomfortable,’ a former BBC employee told me last night.
While his critics are certainly not making the kind of allegations levelled at his ex-colleague Scott Mills – which have led to Mills being sacked from his plum job as the Radio 2 Breakfast show host – questions are arising as to why the BBC allowed Moyles to spend years behaving in a ‘laddish’ and ‘nasty’ manner.
Some will recall, for example, his endless on-air attacks on the Girls Aloud singer, Nicola Roberts. For six years he called her vile names such as ‘horsey chops’ and a ‘sour-faced old cow’.
