Hello you! It's the God-like genius Chris Morris here, taking time out from my busy schedule to answer your questions. So sit back with a cup of tea (or a slice of 'cake'!) and let me put you in the picture...

CHALLENGE CHRIS!

Q. How did you get the idea for Blue Jam?

A. Well, it's a long story! Suffice to say, I liked the idea of doing funny little sketches and playing my favourite records in between . The 'scary' sound was infuenced a lot by the Michael Jackson record Thriller, which I think is a classic. But everyone's been really supportive at Radio 1, and I hope you'll be buying the CD when it comes out (plug plug!).

Q. When is Brass Eye being repeated?

A. I don't know - have you tried looking in the Radio Times?

Q. If it is repeated, will you be reinstating all the cut material?

What cut material? Generally, if we cut sketches, it was for a good reason - because they were rubbish! So I'll be keeping that stuff safely under wraps!

Q. Have you ever regretted any of your hoaxes?

A. Well I thought the Noel Edmonds one went a bit far. And I've spoken to Carla Lane since - she's been very good about it. I do apologise to everyone I 'do' - I think it's only fair.

Q. I've done a feeble parody of nothing, vaguely written in your style - what should I do with it?

A. I'd send it off if I were you! Or better still, send it to me - because, rather than protect myself from being seduced by my fans and their sycophancy, I'm totally blinded by them.

Q. Isn't that the kind of thing you used to fight against - the very thing that made On The Hour and The Chris Morris Music Show so fantastic?

A. Well. I think a lot of that stuff's pretty dated now. But there's one consolation - at least they didn't use canned laughter!

Q. What's your favourite comedy show at the moment?

A. Dead Ringers. It really takes it to the limit.
