Chris Moyles and Comedy Dave have been on air for over 50 hours straight so far, they'll be off at around 52 hours. so far they've raised over £1.8 million in donations for Comic Relief.

they thought they would only make about £100,000 lol, good on them, seriously. they haven't slept, their broadcast has been live on tv, radio, internet, with webcams etc to see them going for it.

amazing show of endurance.

    Watched a lot of this whilst working on my computer. I can find Chris Moyles a bit tedious sometimes but it was a lot of fun. I honestly expected them to go nuts by the end but they kept the show together surprisingly well.

    Good to hear I wasn't the only Polycounter checking it out :D.

    Yep, been following this now and again, mostly on the drive to work. It was odd hearing him on Wednesday morning, then this morning too and thinking 'this guy hasn't been to sleep between these shows'.

    Really admirable though, and they raised so much!
