Britain does not want to socialise with Moyles
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 9 November 2010
Well, kicking Chris Moyles is very much in fashion, so let’s do it some more. The over-paid, increasingly-tired-sounding, out-of-a-job-within-a-year Radio 1 deejay (not necessarily my opinions I should stress, I’m just going with the kicking theme) has topped a poll of the British radio presenters people would least like to have a night out with.
Actually, say what you like about Moyles, but I reckon a night at the pub with him would be rather fun, likewise Chris Evans – at number two in this poll – and even more so Tim Westwood, at number three. How Fearne Cotton is only fourth is a mystery to me. Presumably most respondents to the survey by social networking site CitySocialising were so traumatised by the thought of a night out with the Cotton they just blocked her out from their minds entirely.
It should be noted that 22% of women surveyed actually named Moyles as the DJ they’d most like to have a night out with. Jonny Vaughan and Zane Lowe were also rated high in that regard. As for the blokes, the DJs they’d most like to spend a night at the pub with were Frank Skinner and Lisa Snowdon. For different reasons I’d imagine. Lisa for her crazy jokes, obviously.
But enough of the positive, here’s the list of DJs the British population would least like to socialise with…
1. Chris Moyles
2. Chris Evans
3. Westwood
4. Fearne Cotton
5. Sara Cox
6. Vernon Kay
7. Lisa Snowdon
8. Frank Skinner
9. Edith Bowman
10. Jo Wiley
