Trying to steal from the BRITs
After the ceremony, members of the team attempted to remove a large piece of BRIT Awards scenery or branding from Earls Court.
They almost reached the exit, and one security guard initially held a door open while they carried it.
The plan failed when somebody realised the object was not theirs and told them they could not take it. The attempt had been filmed, allowing the programme to replay the sequence.
Dear Scott
In Dear Scott, listeners wrote about the previous evening’s ceremony and the programme’s backstage coverage.
The letters included comments on interviews, outfits, performances and the team’s unsuccessful attempt to acquire BRITs property.
The big-ears correspondent
Scott received another email from José Miguel Villouta, the Chilean radio and television presenter who had previously compared his prominent ears with Scott’s.
Villouta insisted that his ears were larger and suggested that people with big ears belonged to an attractive elite. He linked the feature to Barack Obama, another public figure with prominent ears.
Scott enjoyed the correspondence but observed that it was becoming a surprisingly regular and largely one-sided relationship.
Oh, What’s Occurring?
The game included Scott’s BRIT Awards version of Smell My Cheese.
Five celebrities were asked to sniff a piece of cheese that had been left unrefrigerated backstage and had become increasingly mature.
The participants included Tom Jones, Duffy and Scouting for Girls. Guesses included Gorgonzola and other strong cheeses, but the transcript indicates that nobody supplied the exact answer.
The day’s game also used further clips and challenges from the awards coverage.
