Chapter 5 by Tyne Tees Books Tyne Tees Books

4Galaxy is now on the air! Wanna see Wriggy and Toesy on their first day?

As Jack would say, "Let's rrrrrun that VT!"

As the start-up ident began to play, Jack could hear the ident music through his earpiece. The jingle sounded a remixed version of the Channel 4 jingle (which for those who don't know, it's actual name is Fourscore by Lord David Dundas and the London Airwave Orchestra), followed by a motif which had been used by the channel since Late 2020. "We're still having fun, cause we're still the one!" Jack mumbled to himself as he sang along with the music. Just then, the red "on air" light lit up on the top of the camera, Jack was on air.

What followed after the ident was a kind of montage of the evolution of Jack welcoming the viewers throughout the years. After that, Claire pointed at him. "Hello!" Jack shouted excitedly, "It's Friday the 24th of September and you're tuned in to 4Galaxy with me, Jack. Now, please don't be alarmed because yes, I am barefoot. And there is a reason for that." He then pointed to his feet as the camera panned over to them. As soon as the camera lens locked onto them, Wriggy and Toesy were suddenly hit with a lot of nerves.

"These are Wriggy and Toesy." Jack explained, "They will be co-hosting with me today." The two feet looked at each other as if they wanted the other one to speak first. But neither of them did. "But enough about them, back to me." Jack said as the camera panned back over to him. As Jack continued chatting to the TV audience as if the camera was a close friend, Wriggy and Toesy breathed a sigh of relief.

"How does he do it?" Toesy asked as he watched Jack talking directly into the camera. "I don't know..." Wriggy replied, "He's so calm when there is literally a giant TV camera perched right in front of his face...". Jack continued chatting about the day's schedule. "And also, make sure you don't miss the 4Galaxy Cinema Club later at 3:30, as the Carry On-athon continues with Carry On Camping, Carry On Doctor and Carry On Screaming. But back to this morning on 4Galaxy where we're off to Rotherham for our ChuckleVision double bill, and in the first of our two chuckles, the brothers find themselves Rich...For A Day." And with that, the first link of the day was done.

So...what now?
