Chris Morris on GLR - in 1994?

Evidently so, if this listing page from that days Daily Mail is correct.  A 2 and half hour Easter Monday morning show. Can anyone with a Radio Times back this up?  One to add to the Holy Grail list, I'd say.  Also found a listing for another 1992 show, on 6th September.

Bloody hell.  Could be a repeat of an old show, or some kind of best-of?  Would make sense given the holiday period.  Then again it's as likely to be another new show, at a point in time when Morris was utterly incomparable on radio.  Wonder if it followed the 93 format with the same people contributing.

I'd bet on it being a new show, he certainly wasn't adverse to popping into GLR and knocking out a one-off show, especially on a bank holiday - he did Easter Monday in 1991, Spring Bank Holiday and Christmas Bank Holiday Monday in 1992.

Someone on the old old forum once swore blind that he'd once heard Baynham on a Morris GLR show, and didn't appear to be making it up or mistaking it for the Radio 1 stuff. This would fit perfectly timewise...

I don't remember doing all those shows for Classic FM...
