Interactive micky taking with the DJs at Radio One

My name’s Snowball. I’ve been joking around with the DJs at BBC Radio One in London, England, for a couple of years now.

This is footage taken of a previous micky taking session. On this occasion, the Scott Mills Show.

So who wants to see it on the Internet where you can all see the jokes, instead of texting it into the studio? You’ll need to be listening to Radio One to get the jokes, or you could listen again, going back a week. Bookmark this blog and keep an eye on it.

0:21 Scott Mills reading text messages on the screen.

0:33 Scott’s distracted by another text message.

0:40 Scott reading a message on screen again.

0:49 Mark Chapman is directed to a screen, to see what the others are laughing at.

1:11 Amid more laughter in the background, Scott’s distracted by another one.

1:21 The guest called Adam realises he’s being filmed and suddenly stops smiling about yet another joke.

1:41 Adam reads another one off the screen in front of him. As everyone laughs, Scott tells Brett not to laugh because he’s supposed to be crying. Mark points to Laura, who’s also laughing.

2.48 Amid more laughter, Scott clearly repeats the joke they are laughing at, at that point. "He’s got one" abbreviated to "‘scott won." The joke being that Scott wasn’t taking part in the competition.

2:58 Scott gets distracted again.

3:05 Scott’s briefly seen waving off the others in the studio behind him for laughing and distracting everyone again.

Mark was weeping with laughter, and would've won the competition hands down.


Typical micky taking streamed into the studio

Comedy Dave, of the Chris Moyles Show

Dave complained to Mark Chapman one Sunday morning, that a Robin keeps pooing on his car. He explained he'd found out male Robins mark their territory this way and it wouldn't stop doing it. Loosely, the text messages into the studio included:

How does it feel to be emasculated by a tiny little male Robin as he constantly shows you who's the boss every time you turn your back and go inside Dave?

Count yourself lucky it wasn't a peacock.

One day you'll look back and laugh.

Come on Dave.


(At this point, amid laughter in the studio, Dave asked people to stop texting in about the Robin problem.)

Mark Chapman (Chappers or Chopper) ace sports news reader and micky taker on the Scott Mills Show

Chappers said he couldn't bare to sit down on public lavatory toilet seats. Among the micky taking was:

Chappers stands up to poo.

He's such a man.
