😆
Meh, I quite liked him on R1, although admittedly I liked the 'show', rather than him specifically. He was quick witted for sure, and did well when he had cohorts to bounce off. On scripted stuff and television and what not he just wasn't funny.
A vile, nasty, witless, bullying moron, who's every inane utterance was a celebration of his own idiocy.
Until this thread I'd forgotten he even existed. Looks like everyone else has too. Hey ho.
[i]I quite liked him on R1[/i]
It's beyond my comprehension how this is even possible. Each to their own eh 😉
vile, nasty, witless, bullying moron
Couldn't have put it better myself.
It's clear he hasn't lost his touch for compelling content.
His R1 show was all scripted. He's a (insert what binners said) and the sycophants were there just to make him seem funny. His appearanceon the Buzzcocks showed him for what he really is.
I'm not sure this is anything to feel good about. He was/is a complete twunt, but watching the decline of another just makes me feel a bit depressed.
It's like those episodes of The Office when Brent works as a traveling rep and goes back to the office with his dog. 🙁
G
Yup,what Binners said .
[b]You what![/b] 🙄The creative, anarchic spirit that once characterised his well-defined radio features has evaporated
Oh ,and Leigh Francis (Keith Lemon) stole all his potential TV work .
With the amount of time on his hands now and the ability of STW to get high on Google there's a fair chance he will read this thread so in that case:-
Moyles you're a talent less dickwad who should just fade away and accept the life of a nobody and has-been you are.
*this* is the Feelgood story of the week!

(can you see what I did there...)
I thought he was an unpleasant bigot. I am not sure that I feel comfortable celebrating his, or anyone else's, decline though.

Man alive there's always one...what about Nick Griffin's decline he's an unpleasant bigot is he not? Why would you not want to see an unpleasant bigot decline?
I agree with Edd. Whilst I don't like Moyles either I take no pleasure in another persons pain. This is the whole problem with modern society. We should all be helping each other. Kindness goes a long way.

Things like this make me feel all warm and fuzzy towards him
He's a knob

Sod off
Anyway, he's not bloody DYING is he? He's just going from undeserved fame to obscurity ffs.

That one's already been done by Binners.

Indeed. But one of the things about Moyles that made him particularly loathsome was that, like all bully's, he seemed to revel in being thoroughly obnoxious towards people, happily holding them up for ridicule for cheap laughs
So its hardly surprising that he doesn't elicit much sympathy
Not exactly sure this is a very nice thread, or really there a need for it. He was a very famous entertainer, and like all entertainers he evoked wildly differing views from love to hate. I used to enjoy his radio shows but got bored of the same old same old year on year, so moved on but don't hate him for it. That said I doubt he's very worried about our views, when hopefully (as in I hope he not pee'd it all up the wall) he's got more money in his bank account than most ppl will make all their whole lives. Money might not bring happiness but I bet it helps.
PS: I alway see him now and think fair play to him for getting his weight down and hopefully under control.
binners I agree, and I am not suprised that there is little sympathy, just saddened. If you don't like his behaviour, surely the last thing you should do is mimic it, otherwise you lose your moral stance right?
Be the change you want to see.
dezb. I love you.xx

Very good.

I'm sure the millions he earned spouting drivel on Radio 1 will keep him cosy while he sobs himself to sleep in front of his paltry 10,000 viewers on Youtube.
When his ego shrinks he will like all other DJ's end up on Capitol or Heart etc dont think he will be on Radio 2 anytime soon
He seems to think he is going to be a big TV host and I can't see it happening, his act is to confrontational with out the depreciating humour or intelligence of say a Graham Norton.
Maybe UKIP will take him.
(sic)his act is to confrontational with out the depreciating humour or intelligence of say a Graham Norton.
I think it was his depreciating humour that got him in this mess! 😆
