Scott faces the whole country
With Chris travelling to Manchester, Scott plays the Whooo Game against a full bank of listeners. Red-eye photographs, sewing swimming badges onto trunks, Ask Jeeves, “Calm down, dear”, the Sugar Puffs monster and Fort Boyard all receive suitably powerful calls from the past.
The game continues at such speed that nobody actually runs out of ideas; the clock defeats them instead. Bamboleo Wednesday then supplies the required school-orchestra gap for listeners dancing in cars, laboratories, tractors and workplaces around the country.
Bangers continues from the train
Chris phones from a railway station on his way to the Mastermind studio. He refuses to reveal his specialist subject but confirms that revision is going well, leaving him to make his Bangers choice remotely so the week’s score remains intact.
Scott admits that other matters have rather overtaken the programme. After following the US election through the night, he woke to Donald Trump’s victory and became fascinated by CNN’s rapid-fire map commentary, which sounds increasingly like horse-racing commentary when accelerated.
What the celebrities are saying
The programme checks the supposed celebrity response to the election. Donald Trump Jr discusses White House decoration, a former TOWIE star worries about being photographed in KFC, Avicii wants a jetpack and James McVey of The Vamps is furious about a faulty sofa. Honey G simply proposes herself for president.
Alice Levine joins Real or No Real for claims about cabinet appointments, a fringe presidential candidate who runs an exotic-animal park and a cash bar at Trump’s victory party.
