It was a morning of nicknames and near-misses on Capital Breakfast. Guest Pete Wicks arrived to promote the new series of For Dog’s Sake and immediately crowned Jordan North “the people’s princess” after hearing how listeners mobbed him for photos at Niall Horan’s O2 gig on Saturday. Dozens of texts backed it up, though Jordan was quick to shut down one cheeky message claiming he’d been doing “signings” near the urinals: “That is not true.”
Elsewhere, Kemi Rogers kicked off her build-up to Friday’s Make Some Noise charity challenge by answering a full set of Beat The Week questions while sitting in an ice bath, on the orders of Jason Fox. She got all five right and declared, “I don’t have to do that ice bath ever again,” though Chris warned more training lies ahead this week.
The Cash Call jackpot rolled over again after Andy in Essex scooped £1.25million on Friday, with Richard E Grant’s call played back on air. The team confirmed Friday’s prize now stands at £1.5million, which they called a British radio and game show record. In the Bong Game, Elizabeth from Glasgow banked £1,075 for an upcoming Cyprus trip, while Dan from Petersfield scored six points in Rhyme Time. There was also light relief as Jordan recounted ruining a long-awaited meatball dinner by missing his waitress say “say when” over the parmesan, thanks to his deaf ear – leading to a mountain of cheese and a fresh round of teasing from Chris and Sian.
