AS Chris Moyles prepares to play at Whitehaven Alive in September, he's been given a tour of Whitehaven to get ready for the big night.

Chris's producer on his Radio X show, James, is originally from Whitehaven so gave his expert advice on all the hotspots around town.

The tour begins at the Peddler; James informs Chris it is a new bar and the Peddler received lots of compliments from the team, as Chris says: "Thats lovely, it looks very nice."

The next stop on their trip is to Wetherspoons, the team informing us they will have 'three pints' in there before they carry on.

They walk past Dominoes, and instead head for Akash. James lets Chris know it is a 'great curry house' and Chris is already up to speed, as he announces it is award-winning.

Pippa asks if there are any pictures of celebrities on the wall, and James says 'there will be'. So, if you are heading to Akash after September, hopefully Chris Moyles will greet you on the wall.

James lets Chris know about Opera Bingo and the Gaiety.

They next head to Gallaghers which they may have a hard time going in as it is closed, but they can head to Bubbles later in the night. They are heading for a drink at the Tavern and the Candlestick.

Chris also promises he is going to head to Frasers.

They next take a trip to John Paul Jones, which again is closed so they might struggle for a pint in there.

The Snecklifter is next on the list, but the sign at the front did not particularly invite them in.

Joe Bananas is the next on the list, the bar gets a lot of praise.

Mrs Pizza, which seems to be Chris's favourite place in Whitehaven, is next. James lets him know all about it.
