I only listen to Radio1 on infrequent occasions but he can be funny, occasionaly somewhat rude I think. not love and not hate IMO

xb8browney · 5 Aug 2008 at 16:49

I listen to him every morning he is definitely a love or hate person

Karl · 5 Aug 2008 at 16:49

I like him. Most of the time he's amusing and makes me zone out from the daily drive to work, and he doesn't play rubbish R&B that Jo Whiley and Scott Mills does.

Music aside, I like Scott Mills too.

can't stand him. i listen to radio 2 until he's finished.

He's rubbish and spoils a good radio station. Kerrang is/was good when a bloke kept singing the traffic news, funny stuff. Best ones are when he did it in a football commentator voice.

I miss Mark and Lard

I'm a fan of Moyles and Marmite. I'm not a fan of Mills. But yeah, I do miss Mark and Lard.

He used to be funny, I listen to him purely as there's nothing else on worth listening too.

I hate Mills, and detest "Chappers"

CliffyBiro · 5 Aug 2008 at 16:53

I like him. He's not as funny as Dom though. His comic timing is superb.

A mate was talking about him at the weekend, he knows a security guard that met him at an event recently. He said Moyles was a complete ****, had a massive ego and was completely obsessed with jingles - he kept shouting at everyone saying he needed his jingles in place and working or he wasn't going on.

I like him, my kind of humour.

Whats wrong with that? He's a professional, its like a footballer not having his favourite boots.

I could almost swear that Chris Moyles and Scott Mills have a running competition to see who can be the most unfunny man on radio - at the moment I think Mills may just be edging it but it is close. Unfortunately all the commercial stations round here are even worse so my options for driving to and from work are no radio, Moyles and Mills or the local commercial stations which have lots of adverts but marginally less unfunny presenters so sadly that means Radio 1 wins.

Chris Moyles MADE the BBC.

Most radio presenters are like that though.

Ever heard Russell Brand's excellent show on Radio 2? He makes some ludicrous demands at times.

Matthew.M · 5 Aug 2008 at 16:59

Hate him. I keep a music CD in the car for whenever he's on, and switch back to the radio when he isn't.

Karl · 5 Aug 2008 at 17:01

It's funny because there's a hell of a backlash against Moyles, and a very vocal one at that. There wasn't really one against Zoe Ball or Sara Cox, probably because it didn't need saying because they didn't have any listeners.
