The Shed of Dread

"Only Slightly similar to One Man and His Dog. A frog handler demonstrates his frog's abilities around an obstacle course while Mark narrates. Frogging expert Scroff Crudle is there to give his expert opinion on the events. Frogging used to be a male only event, but at this years Annussol it has been made into a mixed event. The Annussol is the most important event in the frogging calender, followed closely by the Pepto-Bismol."

Geez, those guys were geniuses.
Radio 1 breakfast show's glory days (literally days) for sure!
Lucky enough to have a driving job where I was always on the drive home when they were on in the afternoon too.

I still can't hear the word "flinty" withought imagining spewing noises.

Oooh - one out.

Bit of poo on its bottom.

Pooey anus, I think you'll find.

..and we have Britney Spears on the line.

"HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOO MAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKK"

class!!

Best thing Radio 1 ever did.

...was get rid of them! Deeply unfunny.

I'm guessing it went over your head Barney. Never mind, eh?

I have bookmarked various M+L links i have found. Should keep you going....

I'm guessing it went over your head Barney. Never mind, eh?

If so, it's only because I ducked out the way to avoid it. 😀

Brilliant I thought funny as hell.

Use to piss myself when Lard had his piano and he'd play along to Robert Miles' Children.

anyone got a clip of that?

😆

The graveyard shift was formative.

Lard - "Is it Naterly Ambruglia, Naterly Umbruglia, Naterly Embruglia.....Is it Billy Mark?"

What you really need is a bit of Butch Schlong and Snatch Friggit 😀

Skinning the Competition......ALIVE.
I still look back on M+L as probably the best radio ive ever heard. A very 'Northern' sense of humour, utterly lost on anyone south of the Peak District. Quite how they got away with the sheer filth that was Fat Harry, and his Bedford Rascal i'll never know....
When you think of the talentless guff on Radio One these days (thats you Fearne Cotton, Greg James, Matt Edmondson, Dev, etc) it makes you realise just how good, but misunderstood they were. Genius.

STOP. Carry On.

off to London Village.........

Soft Top Bedford Rascal hhhhmmm mmmmmmmmmm.

Pure Genius.

"So what will you be feeding this abandoned giraffe on then, Lard?"

"Fish Fingers"

I still look back on M+L as probably the best radio ive ever heard. A very 'Northern' sense of humour, utterly lost on anyone south of the Peak District.

Moyles- what a fat 'kin waster with his little band of simpering puffs.

Mark and Lard were wasted on radio 1. To get Harry White broadcast at peak times was simply genius.

What about me braiiiins?
And rare appearances by the mighty Bolton Bullfrog. Happy days.

A very 'Northern' sense of humour, utterly lost on anyone south of the Peak District.

Oh here we go...

Utter bollocks. M+L's humour was very [i]British[/i], with 'Northern' colloquialisms. I've never ventured byond the M25*, and I got it. 😀

*No need!

Moyles- what a fat 'kin waster

Ah Moyles, used to follow M+L. After listening a couple of times, the radio would get switched over as soon as M+L's show ended. Chris Moyles' show was just completely shit.

fat harry "...pulled out prematurely and left me completely unsatisfied"

anecdotal really 😆

ps countzero's right, moyles is from leeds and it doesn't stop him being s**t

WWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?

Single Bloke, I don't wanna be a single bloke
I'm so desperate I could do it with an artichoke

I can remember them doing it to the band who did the original when they were in session and the band struggled to start the next tune from laughing

Is it Sheena Easton Mark???

Elfin - I think you've been trolled there!
I almost bit too....

"Thats the badger" being a common phrase in the OAB household (including 5 year old).

My favourite Fat Harry White quote, while reading a woman's fortune

"You will be spied on through the window by a coal-man from Clegheaton, who will inadvertently empty his sack up your back passage"

I thought I was going to have a coronary I was laughing that much

Work stopped for mark n lard, nuff said, genius, sadly the loss means work gets done 🙁

'must get some oil for that door....'

and, yes, how they powers that be let Fat Harry run so long is beyond me. Priceless 😀

Fat Harry White helping the Plumber: I walked in the door and saw the old boiler with her crack dripping.

This on the radio in the afternoon.

Brilliant.

Those were the days. I remember the time Lard had a slug in his animal sanctuary. 😆

Brilliant, you guys have made my night. I am crying with laughter listening to thoe old clips. Space oddity was absolutely fabulous!
😆
CAN YOU BACK OFF THE MIC A BIT.

Kev

utterly lost on anyone south of the Peak District.

Of course it was. 🙄

Slipknots army the rabbi Lionel blair and that there shed of dread...superb.

It's 😉 at me.

"Live from the Glittering Palace of Delights.."

****in awesome, kept me going at Uni..

Loved listening to these guys.

Laughed until I cried many a time.

I stopped listening to R1 as much when they left, now I just dont bother with it at all. 24hr shite on there now

it's not all shite on R1 now, some of it's bollocks.

Elfin - I think you've been trolled there!

C'est ne possible pas.

musn't geeeerrrrrrrruuummmmmble

I'm not gay or owt

I was late for work every morning when they were doing the breakfast show. I got to site on time, but just had to stay in the car till they finished 😉

Has nobody mentioned that actually knew a bit (and cared) about music too? [b]That's[/b] the big difference to me.

I worked shifts many years ago 🙂 and had the joy to finish at 2200 in the evening & could listen to them on the way home each day. What a great way to pass the time on the motorway.
After some promotion at work & their move to breakfast I was able to listen once more.
Always thought I was a bit odd for enjoying it as most folks I knew then thought it was tosh (I'm a midlander by the way)
Still have my treasured Shirehorses CD in the car. Franny Lee indeed....

Just for the record I also recall Chris Moyles being on before the breakfast show during my shiftworking days & he was actually good to listen to then. His arrogance seemed ironic at the time but as time passed by it became clear he really was a to$$er...

I miss that show so much! 😆

I used to love their show. As people have already said - work stopped for some of their regular items.
It was also great to hear Radio 1 DJs who actually admitted to not liking some of the crap they were forced to play!

The only time I've had to pull over & stop driving for laughing was listening on the way home one xmas - 'Rev. Ian Paisley sings the Beatles Greatest Hits'. Any passers-by probably thought I'd been through a messy break-up, with tears streaming down my face...

+ they always played 'Xmas Wrapping' by The Waitresses...

I really couldn't stand it. I got it, just didn't like it.

I did a 60min tape of Fat Harry White's.
I remember the plumber one above.
Amazed that they got away with it in the afternoon.
Bloody brilliant. Was working shifts at the time & always home to listen.
Must look for the tape.

But some folk have no sense of humour.

robgarrioch - I distinctly remember the Ian Paisley feature. I was crying with laughter at that one too. Utter genius!!!

If only podcast's had been available back then, missed almost all their stuff due to work but everything I ever heard was sheer brilliance, and as said above, they knew their onions when talking about music, not sucking up to the latest wannabes as per Jo Whiley etc.

Will be researching those links when I get home tonight.

got a cassette of their last show, must digitise it...

I am listening to them now, on a made up afternoon show by me.I downloaded lots of their stuff just after they packed it all in., most of its been taken down now. Now how lucky was that.

I fell out with Radcliffe's Dad years ago. I delivered Sunday papers to their house but always shoved em down a grid cause there was a ****in massive wasps nest right at their front door.

They were dead funny though. How they got away with half the stuff Fat Harry came out with was beyond me.

do you think there is a direct correlation between lovers of mark and lard and haters of that twont moyles?
