Scott is booked to play darts at Lakeside with Bobby George, and the team discuss embarrassing airplane songs, Britney Spears’ health scare, and a bizarre Hannah Montana concert moment that’s gone viral on YouTube.
The show opens with discussion of the team’s darts coverage over the weekend — Kelvin, Joe, Kurt, Louise, Paul, and Antim all attended the Lakeside and made Scott Mills masks for pictures. Scott reveals he’s been lined up to play a leg of darts with Bobby George on Thursday, complete with a special costume. The team jokes about Scott’s darts ability and Bobby George’s famous bling (multiple watches and gold chains), with suggestions that Scott should dress up in a matching outfit to compete with him.
The main feature focuses on embarrassing songs that have played on planes as they’re taking off. Listener Chloe emails in after a New Year snowboarding trip to France, where the airline played Westlife’s “Flying Without Wings” as the plane was about to take off — hardly reassuring for a nervous flyer. Other listeners contribute their own horror stories, including a plane that played “Crashing Down” and a ferry that repeatedly played the Titanic theme.
A separate email from Daniel in Stoke-on-Trent raises an awkward relationship question: his girlfriend refuses to remove her dog from the room during intimate moments, and the dog’s head-tilting behavior is putting him off. The team discusses whether it’s acceptable to have pets in the room during sex, with consensus that dogs and cats should be asked to leave, though fish apparently get a pass due to their eight-second memory.
The episode closes with discussion of Hannah Montana’s tour, where a YouTube video captures the young star being covered with a blanket mid-performance and replaced by a noticeably larger person in a wig and pink coat — clearly a stand-in for a costume change, but hilariously obvious to anyone watching.
