1 April 2010: Beccy discovers the Hug-E-Gram

 

Beccy discovers the Hug-E-Gram

Scott and Beccy began April with an investigation into an American alternative to flowers: the Hug-E-Gram. Its promise of a recorded message and a permanent embrace did not survive much scrutiny, with the pair deciding that it resembled a large draught excluder that could be worn round the neck.

They also mocked up deliberately over-styled profile photographs after noticing how seriously people were taking their Facebook and Twitter pictures. Oh! What’s Occurring? continued with Jedward, while the show remained amused by the very idea of a gift that was supposed to be more romantic than flowers.
