Brilliantly done for GLR (Greater London Radio) by Chris Morris.

The GLR show saw him take ever greater risks. He was suspended by the station after playing a re-edited version of the Queen's Christmas speech which made obscenities and profanities appear to be issuing from the Monarch's mouth, and Morris himself has also claimed that he once wrote a fake letter of complaint about his own show that was so effective that he was taken off air!

Other added ingredients to the psychotic recipe included the 'Sock Quiz', in which children with socks stuffed in their mouths were encouraged to give answers that sounded alarmingly like obscenities, an obsession with playing pop singles backwards to discover the drug invocations and satanic messages hidden within the lyrics, suggestions for ways to change the world (read by Michael Alexander St. John), and persistent lampooning of the BBC's 'Children In Need' charity broadcasts.

Morris apparently left this show voluntarily to concentrate on the making of "On The Hour", although mysterious and tantalising hints have recently slipped out that he in some way "upset Marmaduke Hussey" (i.e. the man at the very head of the BBC empire at that time!).

GLR still hold the master tapes of about twenty original Chris Morris shows, and there are also several complete shows and extracts circulating among private collectors. It is entirely possible that Morris owns copies of many of the shows himself.
