The funniest moment of Charlie and Jerry's Monday came not from the studio but from a listener's phone, as they gathered wedding horror stories to tie in with Blossoms' upcoming Live Lounge cover of Ash's "Stop the Wedding." Tales of first-dance pratfalls and toilet kisses with the wrong in-law were topped by one epic account of a barn wedding where the hog roast chef napped on the job and the pig caught fire, nearly taking the doors down with it. "Talk about sleeping on the job," Charlie laughed, before warning Blossoms, who were setting up down the hall, "don't do it today."
The big news of the show was the launch of Live Lounge Month, with Blossoms and Declan McKenna booked in at midday for what the pair called a genuinely nervous, butterflies-in-the-stomach occasion. Jerry revealed a lovely bit of trivia: his taxi-driving dad once picked up Blossoms years before they'd ever done a Live Lounge, and years later here they were recording their ninth visit.
Elsewhere, the One Second Club remained winless after trucker Dave from Aberdeen guessed Harry Styles and got it wrong, prompting a cheerful "sorry Dave" from the hosts. In Winner Stays On, vet-medicine student Ella picked through a "songs with the word one" theme, eventually sticking with Daft Punk's "One More Time" as her winner.
