I haven't heard anything. Mind you they have been on air forever, traditionally shows don't last more than about 2 years, so in radio terms, it's well overdue. I actually thought Tom, Dan and Lisa might have been moving into that slot. g0d i hope not :-/ Me too! Plus I thought Dan or Tom was leaving and going back to the UK and instead seem to have drafted in an old UK has been pop star! WTF?? Couldnt agree more Polly ;-) I don't even see what the point is of having Lisa in for part of the show..? Awful show...

Chdp, you'll just have to move back ;) Is Chris Moyles still on Radio1? He used to be really funny - but last time I listed there was too just too much going on in the room and it wasn't funny anymore. I think you have to be quick switched on to catch a lot of the banter between CB/GB, it's quite fast and you have to pay attention. lol. I think they are hilarious. I'm back for a girlie long weekend for duran duran and snow patrol and back for easter - will be staying near you....... must meet up I'll be there on my own with the kids just before easter and then after easter so let's catch a coffee or a wine together!

How sad am I? I really miss CB and GB - so much so that my husband downloads their podcasts and I listen to them in the car on the school run - just like I did when I was in Dubai!!!!!! LOL !!! you can also listen to them on the internet anytime... I was just loving being back in the UK with Johnny Vaughan on the radio and within a couple of months he left........I still can't find a station that makes me chuckle in the mornings like CB and GB do so am enjoying catching up with them! what channel was Johnny Vaughan on ? we like Chris Evans on Radio 2 - listen here quite often... Virgin or capital I think - can't remember but he was absolutely hilarious - there were mornings when I had tears of laughter rolling down my cheeks - the best way to start your day.

We always used to listen to CB and GB. Then it got a bit boring, same old, same old. They still bicker like an old married couple, well, ex-married couple. He's a bit more cutting with her now though. We've now switched to Virgin in the mornings - it's just a bit different. Hate it in the afternoons on the way home though - Ryan "the runtling" Seacrest is really irritating...

I actually thought Tom, Dan and Lisa might have been moving into that slot. Dont' listen to C&GB anymore, I can of moved on but he can be very funny. Tom, Dan are useless, BORING-BORING so I quickly change it if they are on

Yes I definitely heard that link and assumed they were being sarcastic about possible content of tomo show. I really like them and enjoy the show but I know its each to their own and if I didnt like them I would change channels - as I do when they are on holiday esp if Tom and Dan are on, I find them soooo irritating!

I think it was just CB making a joke regarding their show's content tomorrow. As in: GB: Tomorrow we'll be talking about what you get up to in bed. CB: For our final Dubai show ever... I was listening at the time GB made that comment and I came to the same conclusion as you.
