    • Morris got in trouble with Blue Peter after submitting a rap song he had written called "I'd rather be a nigger than a farmer's son" under the assumed name of Tungin' Ceeks - a nice touch given he was only twelve years old. The lyrics were set to a booming backbeat and 'cutting and scratching'.
    • Chris once sent Paul Simon a letter, pertaining to be from Channel 4 boss Michael Grade, wondering if he would care to comment on the fact that Grade had always considered Art Garfunkel to be the superior musical talent.
    • In June 1996 he appeared on the daytime programme 'The Time, The Place', posing as an academic Thurston Lowe, in a discussion entitled "Are British Men Lousy Lovers?" He lasted almost the entire show without being found out.

    • Chris Morris: You can't help but be a cynical twot after that lot, I mean having this much shit-which it all is-written about you, it hurts, what can I say?
    • Chris Morris: I did five ten-minute improvisations with him [Peter Cook] for Radio 3 and was amazed because I expected him to be pickled. He was in fact incredibly lucid and possessed possibly the quickest mind I have ever come across. Just incredible, bursting off in streams of consciousness.
    • Chris Morris: It's a kind of Zen thing, all the different spaces you can fill with a 24 inch TV made up of average density foam rubber – sort of any space smaller than a TV but definitely nothing bigger – fairly self-explanatory really. As a concept it's a good starting point and from then on you just mix it up and play around with inflections. To be honest there's just a lot of arsing about.
