Pat Sharp

No, but you know, in 98, Capital kind of did have to start taking itself a bit more seriously.

Because when you actually think of it, Pat Sharp and Kid Jensen left Capital and came over to Hart.

And also from Virgin Radio, John O'Coleman came over.

And I mean, what was that like to have three big, you know...

I still remember that feeling because for about three years it was Jono at breakfast, then me, then Pat Sharp at one and then David Jensen at four.

And I most days I'd be like, how the hell have I somehow inserted myself in these people that I used to listen to? Particularly Pat, I have to say.

And David Jensen as well.

And the reason I mention that is, you know, Ken Bruce I used to listen to as a kid growing up.

He looks the same, just more weathered.

Yeah, because isn't he talking about like the unruly kind of like TV hosts like Pat Sharp and Hugh Edwards? Like the anarchic spirit of...

The new kids.

And of course then the joke is that Hugh Edwards is just a boring newsreader, but that's got an extra layer to it now, that joke.

I was like, they found their sense of fun.

It was like, "Ah, you are now an actual contrast to the rest of this wacky Pat Sharp's fun house, so I welcome you in."

Yes.

Like, they, they, they made sense as characters.

I double dare you, motherfucker." [laughs]

... was that Pat Sharp or something?

I don't think he said, "Double dare you, motherfucker." He did double team the twins.

Um, is it...

Radio X.

Did I tell you? I think I'm having Sunday lunch with Pat Sharp tomorrow.

Yeah, hang on a sec.

Can we get a rewind?

Funhouse, it's a whole lot of fun.

You're having Sunday lunch with Pat Sharp.

It's a real crazy show where anything goes.

That's a cool thing to do, isn't it? What, Funhouse or Sunday lunch with Pat Sharp? Well, having Sunday lunch with Pat Sharp, I was thinking actually.

And that made me think...

Well, lads, what do you remember as a really brilliant TV show or series when you were little and you were kids that you loved? And you can't say Pat Sharpe's Hornhouse

either.

The Singing Ringing Tree, Bottom Moon.

He was, he's-

You know what? I was mentally thinking of Pat Sharp.

[laughs]

Pat Sharp.

Pat Sharp, yeah.

Fun House.

I don't know him.

Pat Sharp must be on Radio 3.

I think it's actually more tragic than anything else.

I'm assuming it's Pat Sharp's son in my head.

And that's it, right? That's just celebrities.

Celebrities.
