I can't imagine the brash, rude, insulting Moyles at Radio 2. Evans in the morning, Moyles on afternoons? No way -wouldn't happen unless its years later eg Moyles V2.0 like Evans V.2.0 reborn.
Most of his brash, insulting image is from a long time ago but having said that, whilst I absolutely want Moyles on Radio Two, he needs to be able to do it as the Chris Moyles that people knew and loved on breakfast.. One of the reasons I find Chris Evans so unlistenable on R2 breakfast is that he is so dull and safe. Where does this notion that people someone stop wanting edgy, funny presentation just because they're older come from?

Radio 2 tried edgy with Russel Brand with disastouras consequences, they will stay well clear of edgy for Radio 2 after that incident.
If you want edgy try Nick Grimshaw he calls people making out team members have poo'd themselves. Works on Radio 1 breakfast but would not work on Radio 2.

No please - don't do that to Radio 2. I heard a few minutes of that deranged jibbering lunatic around the gym once when they put Moyles on the loudspeaker.
After numerous complaints the radio was re-tuned within 10 minutes thankfully.
Radio 2 is a music station - we do not need that raving ignorant arrogant gobshite on there - Chris Moyles would be ideal for LBC or Talksport - or better still, a talk radio station in the Falkland Islands.

There's edgy and there's stupid. Moyles has been in radio for long enough to know where the line is and how far you can push things. I don't think that putting Moyles onto Radio 2 would risk another Brand incident.
I'll throw this out there - I'd quite like to hear Moyles doing a weekend double header with Sara Cox.

Probably the same people who were up in arms when Chris Evans first joined Radio 2. They remembered the loud mouth from Radio 1, who rather successfully adapted his act for the new gig.
I used to think this when he was banging on about the mighty Leeds. Almost like someone had said "Chris, we have The Sun demographic in the palm of your hand....just need some football banter to keep them'

Motels will do exactly the same.
Like Hotels - only smaller!
Can't believe I read the post as Moyles - only realised when I read THIS /\

No doubt when they were in their prime at Radio 1 10/20/30 years ago people wouldn't have imagined they'd end up at Radio 2.
Radio 2 is constantly evolving, the presenters are 'growing up'. Moyles will probably be on Radio 2, and if he is he will be very good at it.
