Chris Moyles didn’t make it to the Radio X studio for his show this morning after spending the weekend at Glastonbury festival.

Radio X tweeted out a photo of the empty studio saying “the show has started, but where is @ChrisMoyles” after he failed to turn up.

Chris managed to eventually make it to air though, hosting the show from a caravan off-site from Glastonbury where he’d been all weekend. Radio X co-hosts Pippa Taylor and Dominic Byrne held the fort in the Radio X London studios.

Explaining what happened, Chris said: “Here’s the story, James [Robinson] was at Glastonbury on Thursday and we spoke to him on Friday do you remember? In his campervan…with all this equipment so he could be on the air.

“So I said to James “I’m not coming in, I’m not there”, so James said, “I’ve got all this equipment” and I said “stop showing off” and he said “not like that, radio!” so he’s brought his campervan to where I’m staying. We’ve plugged it in, and here we are!”

Chris told his co-hosts that he had his Elton John glasses and they were parked up on the lawn, where he was staying for the weekend, “because I was staying off site as they call it, slumming it,” he joked to them!
