Amy’s idea of a holiday was very different
Scott wanted to know what everybody considered a relaxing break.
His version involved sunshine and maximum tanning.
Chris preferred Devon, food, the sea and tracking ships on an app.
Producer Amy had spent her time off visiting haunted and abandoned places in Norfolk.
She described hiking through woodland to an abandoned medieval church and attempting the kind of conversation with the dead usually seen on paranormal television.
A gust of wind knocked items from a stone while she was there.
Scott’s explanation was wind.
Amy’s explanation was that she might now be haunted.
Scott announced that Eurovision season had begun
March also brought a familiar change in Scott’s mood.
Eurovision was getting close enough to become a daily concern.
Scott compared the contest to following the FA Cup from the early rounds rather than only turning up for the final.
For most viewers, Eurovision was one entertaining night in May.
For Scott, the build-up had already started.
His argument for 2022 was that Britain needed to stop behaving as though the UK entry were an embarrassment and actually support the artist properly.
The campaign which would soon become the Sam Ryder marketing operation had effectively begun.
The quiz sped songs up through WhatsApp
The Who Game produced another rush of things which had quietly disappeared, including school left-handed scissors, Jedward references and fitness watches congratulating people for climbing stairs.
The quiz then took song introductions and recorded them through the WhatsApp two-times voice-note speed.
Ordinary pop songs became almost unrecognisable.
Scott still managed to identify Ava Max and Tiësto’s The Motto, proving there was apparently a practical use for spending too much time around pop music.
