Tim Westwood puts boss in the hot seat

Move over Jeremy Paxman, make way for Tim Westwood . The Big Dawg has only gone and quizzed his boss Andy Parfitt in an interview about Radio 1Xtra. Monkey fans will remember Westwood complained last year on-air that the station's audience was so low he had been broadcasting "to absolutely nobody for the last three hours ... It's soul-destroying". So no surprise that Westwood kicks off with a heavy hit, asking Andy straight off whether, bearing in mind 1Xtra's small reach, it "represent value for money". Andy bats it away by saying it reaches more than 800,000 people and that he thinks "in time" it will reach 1 million. Which will be a relief to Westwood. Andy Parfitt's hip-hop past More from Tim Westwood 's interview with Andy Parfitt. His final question was: "What's the most hip-hop thing you've ever done?" Andy replied it was visiting a north London club with Westwood. He walked out of the BBC to find a "row of black limousines" waiting for the pair. When they got to the club, Westwood was so concerned about his boss's welfare he even assigned Andy with his own security. "This rather tall gentleman went with me everywhere I went, even to the men's room. It felt pretty hip-hop at the time." You don't get that on BBC expenses, eh Andy?
