I was travelling home in the car listening to DLT on the radio & he asked a man a question. It was name the 4 Marx Brothers. Groucho, Chico, Harpo & Karl replies the man. DLT just burst out laughing & colud not stop. I was trying to drive tears rolling down my face my mate was in tears aswell. The 4th Mark Brother was Zeppo. Wish icould hear it again.
This was on a Saturday Morning, on the "double top" feature!! I was listening to this, totally cracked me up!!- brill show, and I can understand why he left Radio 1 !
I remember hearing this while having breakfast on my boat in Liverpool Marina. I was with a great frIend who, shortly afterwards fell overboard and was never found.. So it meant a lot to hear it again and remember how much we laughed that day. Thank YOU
I remember hearing this when I was driving my car and had to stop because the tears were pouring down my face through laughter. A true classic, thanks for posting it. Made my day....again!
DLT said, in all seriousness, that one of the reasons he left radio 1 was because he wasnt prepared to watch his co workers get trodden on by the management any longer. and get this, he said "it just was'nt funny anymore"!!!
@KayMcQue ah no,its not the our tune music,he used to play it on a saturday morning if i remember right. definetley not our tune though thats a shame.
dave used to do a story on his show in the early eighties the music he used to play in the background was one of the lovliest tunes i have ever heard i always thought it was called haylies theme from the worriors movie. ive tried to find it for years no luck can any one remember the clip he used to do? i wonder if it was something else?
I remember listening to Dave Lee Travis on Radio 1 with this Quiz in the early 1990's. I think this was around about 1991, on Dave Lee Travis Satursday Radio 1 Show. I started laughing when i heard the caller answer, It was so funny.
@UKPatriotsFan I have it on an old cassette somewhere in the loft burried somewhere. I shall have to find it as this is an edited version. Basically DLT loses it so much he asks his producer Mick to take over who starts of saying "are we on?".
I missed this when it was first aired, but due to listeners liking it so much DLT discussed it on his next show and for the benefit of those who missed it replayed the whole thing (which is what I recorded)
@UKPatriotsFan I recorded it from the radio live, like I did a lot of other stuff. I didn't know radio 1 released a tape of bloopers. I have a lot of clips from old shows from radio 1 on cassette in a bag somewhere. I used to be a massive radio 1 listener before Bannister screwed it up.
@Andrewjk73 I think the casette was called radio one bloopers and there was a whole load of stuff on it including the top 40 run down with DLT trying to put Alan Freeman(i think it was)
@UKPatriotsFan In fact because I listened to it so much I can tell you what he said on his next show whilst discussing it. He joked his throat was hurting, he lost a lot of credibility and explained why he found the baton comment funny. He thanked listeners who called in saying it cheered them up and before playing the clip again he said "are you ready for this..?" I already had my tape recorder running
@UKPatriotsFan It was given away free with the 25 years of Radio One Magazine. In 1992. I lost my copy, but it had a purple cover. I've never seen another one, but the magazine is quite common. It lasted about 10 mins per side.

Oh I remember hearing this live. It was hilarious and still is. For several weeks after this when they had trailers for the DLT show they just played this clip of him laughing!!
man saturday mornings back in the day with this guy.. ya always needed tissues..im looking for the snooker game laughing session.. now thats funny..nice upload:):)
dave lee travis was prime time radio one along with jimmy saville and david hamilton and tony blackburn,radio one is shit now because of banister,push the bugger down it
DLT resigned live on air, as if he was making a protest against the new Matthew Bannister regime.He would have got sacked anyway and saved Bannister the job.. That generation of daytime Radio 1 DJ have got to be the most arrogant bunch of tossers in the history of entertainment.. He once thought it would be a good idea that since he was cleaning out his garage he would give his crap away as prizes, how lucky, the British public could actually own a genuine piece of DLT rubbish.
how man!! radio 1 is total shite now. I heard Dave throwing the towl in LIVE on air!! and we now have him up here in Geordie land working for "Magic" in Newcastle...and were fucking keeping him!!
The people today on R1 are a bunch of tits the people that were there before Bannister ruined the station in 93 were better than the faceless misfits we have now.
you people are mental, the day moyles leaves radio 1 is a sad day, good radio is about people keeping you hooked with out music, jingles etc etc . and there are still a few capable of it in the uk.........ian collins and chris moyles are head and shoulders above tho .
agreed chris moyles is good at what chris moyles does and that is talk utter wank and big himself up all the time and if people arnet talking about him will steer the conversation to him the big fat cunty cunting cunt bucket
the hairy cornflake (dlt) was the best , steve wright & simon bates made radio 1, radio 1 i all full of wanker presenters now .... half you twats didnt know what the best years were .... so shut the fuck up
What the hell is WRONG with some of you people? Who cares about all that? How about removing the sticks from your asses and recognising that that is the funniest laugh EVER. I'm thinking none of you have ever got the uncontrollable giggles if you don't get this.
I remember listening to the radio when this was on. I laughed so hard that stomach hurt and he had to go off air for 1/2 hour. Sunday, people were asking for it to be aired again and it was. Thanks for the good memories. lol
Anybody interested to know where DLT is now he's at Magic 1152 North East, Saturday's & Sundays, I love it when he says its gonna go down in my book....lol when will that be written then Dave, anyone who doesn't like DLT should fuck off n fuckin open their ears to some decent broadcasters like Dave, Dave was a genius a natural talent on Radio 1 many years ago...... I love him on Magic 1152... he's well class

What's he laughing at? The gullibility of the British public & the fact he wasn't stoned to death?

Thank God this egomaniac deluded creepy cunt is no longer inflicted on our eyes or ears.
Greetings Earthlings! Is the previous comment really from a human being? Weird! But how hilarious was DLT? This is a fantastic post. Has anyone got the recording of the Sat am show where the question was 'What kind of animal is a coyote?' That one was my absolute favourite - he totally disintegrated. Upon trawling my memory banks,I have a feeling that it was also filmed, so if anyone has a copy, please post. And, of course BRING BACK DLT, THE HAIRY MONSTER RULES OK!
this is the funniest thing i've heard in ages, i was listening to this when it happened, they had to cut to a record so he could compose himself. we need more D,L,T
