Chantal : Hi I'm online if you want to ask me any questions I'm available.
Glenn : Hi, it's Glenn and I didn't do it!
Chantal : You did!
Chat Ed : Heheh. Right, first question:
fraggle : has glenn got a girlfriend??? hubba hubba!!
Glenn laughs
Glenn : No, I'm still single at the moment, but no success so far. Any offers?
Eden_G : Chantel it must have got pretty heated on the bus, being friends with both cheryl and Bex. Did you have to break up many fights?
Chantal : No, I tried to keep it on an even level, I didn't want to be piggy in the middle, so I tried not to get in between that. I was there for everybody on the bus. I'm happy being friends with both because they are my friends and that's what we do. We help each other out in times of a crisis.
grebble : if you could relive one event from the trip and change what happened, what would it be?
red or dead : what regrets, if any, do you have about the trip?
Chantal : I don't think I have any regrets. The whole thing was fantastic. To be there you just wanted to absorb everything. The arguments and having fun was all part of it.
Glenn : I wouldn't change a thing as it was a trip of a lifetime. To change anything would be wrong.
Chantal : It's a memory that you can carry through your life forever and there's not a lot of people who get to live their dreams. We were so happy that we did it and we will never ever forget it. Watching it this evening all the memories came flooding back and it was brilliant. Meeting different people and just making friends it was so nice, not like being at home and going to work, going up the pub etc. We experienced so much.
VeniceSurfer : Does the series depict accurately what happened? Are you happy with the televised product?
Glenn : Mostly it was true to it. There was a few occasions where it was mixed around. The camera angle on me and Boppa kissing the same woman was not very true.
Chantal : The TV version showed all the fun that we had but there was more to it, there were 1500 hours of film which had to be cut down.
Glenn : It would have been nice to have some of the nights that didn't get shown.
Chantal : At the end of the day sex sells and that's what people enjoy watching and want to see. If I was at home I would want to go and do all this. There were a few cuts here, there and everywhere. When we went to the pornstar festival, the whole audience was asked the question who lives the furthest away. So I said England! And when I got up to get my T shirt she said I couldn't receive it because I didn't have any ID. That was made out to look like I was taking part in a wet T-shirt competition when I wasn't.
rupertj : Did you get any time to yourself on the trip?
Glenn : There were a few days each week that we filmed, because obviously the crew needed time off too.
Chantal : We were constantly partying for a whole eight weeks. We had four days off in Vegas which we had for ourselves. But we still had to go to the MOBO Awards and have interviews with certain people.
Glenn : We didn't want to waste any time either by having days off.
Chantal : We didn't want to stay in, we were there to have fun.
kellie : did ch4 pay for the whole trip - party money and all?
daniel : Who paid for it all? You or Channel 4? How did you ever get Channel 4 interested?
Glenn : We got in touch with a load of Production Companies and Rapido, who we finally went with, already had a show lined up like this and had the money, so we got off our arses and tried to get a free holiday!
Chantal : They paid for it all. And we got a weekly wage, but all we had to do if we ran out was clean the bus for the driver. It was a case of who was going to clean it. It was pretty bad on that bus.
atomic : how much was the wage?
Glenn : Twenty-five dollars a day for food and drinks.
red or dead : Are the any plans for a second series, maybe going around Asia or Australia?
Glenn : Yeah, we went down to Rapido the other day who are writing a second series and we don't know yet if we will be the ones who are doing it, we hope we will though.
Chantal : Normally for a second series they like to use other people, but as we thought up the ideas and everything we are hoping that they will choose us again. To pass it on though and let someone else have the experience would be inspiring.
Glenn : Plus they won't have to waste a first episode of the series by introducing us.
feelypantie : How many film crew people did you have with you?
Glenn : We had a cameraman, a director, an assistant a floor manager and a sound manager.
Luke largin it : what's all this about wanky panky on the bus?????
Eden_G : Bex and Joel were on here last week. Did you read the chat script?, if you didn't somebody asked if it was true that everyone masturbated on the bus, to which they replied ' only Chantel and Glenn'. So were you the only two or are you going to dish the dirt on the others?
Chantal laughs
Chantal : The thing about this is that everybody I know should be able to enjoy themselves and so all this thing about me saying stuff about masturbation is just me saying that it's a natural thing. Which it is. Not having sex for eight weeks is really frustrating. Enjoy yourself that's what I say!
Glenn remains silent
Glenn laughs
Glenn : I did. Chantal did. Don't know about Boppa.
Chantal : If people want to deny it then good luck to them. I also knew that Cheryl was a naughty girl like me.
hayward007 : Hey what was the funniest moment on the trip?
Glenn : Hmm. Probably going out dressed as a woman, we couldn't stop laughing. I don't know if that was the wine or being dressed as a woman.
Chantal : You were well up for it and he pulled on that night. Maybe if you dressed up as a woman again you might get lucky again!
virgin : DID ANYONE SHAG THE DRIVER???
Chat Ed chuckles
Glenn : Err... no.
Chantal : Definitely not. He was really funny, but no, oh man.
Glenn : He was a good bloke to talk to.
Chantal : It's a shame they didn't show a bit more of him in the programme.
onelung : have you all got jobs now - or did you find it hard settling back into life back here?
andy99 : what are you all doing now?
Glenn : I found it very hard and I've not got a proper job at all yet, I'm just doing bits and bobs to earn some cash.
Chantal : It was like a culture shock coming back. I think we were all lethargic and nostalgic about the whole experience. I go back to Uni in October.
Chat Ed : OK y'all - our half hour is up now, so last three questions now, thanks!
Jeff : which city would you go to again if you had to chose from only one?
Glenn : New York or San Diego.
Chantal : I don't think I can choose one really. But the Burning Man was fantastic. You can look it up on the net actually. Not many people can say they have been to a festival in the middle of the desert!
aimz : What was it that was so secretive about the fraternity initiation that meant we couldn't see what was going on?
Glenn : Hi Bushy by the way! There wasn't really anything, it was all done for the cameras. Just teaching us secret handshakes and teaching us the chants.
Chantal : I thought it was pathetic. If you ever meet anybody in your life and you've got this secret handshake then you know you were part of a fraternity and I don't regard that as something really special.
Stephen A : Pick five words that summed up your state of mind during the travels?
Chantal : Spaced out. Intrigued, excited, memories and fun!
Glenn : Yeah, all of them really. That about sums it up.
Shay : smashed is a word that springs to mind.
neil : horny springs to mind too.
Glenn : Most of the trip we had copious amounts of alcohol to make us do the things that we did. I don't know about that, neil!
Chantal : Glenn's a good boy.
greeneyes_liz : lucky bast**ds springs to mind
Chat Ed : And lastly...
JameyLeicester : that jerry springer song rules! what did jerry think of it?
Glenn : He was quite impressed I think.
Chantal : I think if it wasn't televised Joel and Boppa would have been up there for the whole entire song!
Glenn : The crowd loved it though.
Chantal : They couldn't have all of it on air though because some of it was quite rude.
Chat Ed : That's it! Thanks for coming Glenn and Chantal, that was fantastic. And thanks for all your questions, folks! Hope you all enjoyed it!
