Vick Hope was not easily fooled on Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie. Producer Sophie tried out the show's "low-level villainy" trick on Vick after Thursday's programme, phoning to say she'd left her phone in the studio. Vick, washing her hands in the toilets at the time, spotted straight away that she was actually holding it. "I'm literally on it, I'm looking at it right now," she said, much to Katie Thistleton's amusement. Listeners then flooded in with their own tales of workplace mischief, and Harry T, a festival security guard who deliberately spreads false rumours about secret acts, was crowned villain of the week.
The daily Who's in the Box guessing game produced the funniest mix-up of the show. After clues pointed to the Masked Singer and Celebrity Traitors, listeners correctly worked out the answer was Maya Jamma. But the mystery deepened when producer Sophie insisted the dog from Family Guy was called "Ram Jam" rather than Brian Griffin, having misread an AI search result about the character singing a Ram Jam song. Vick and Katie left it in as the gag of the day, with listeners still teasing Sophie about it afterwards.
The pair also ran their regular draft game, this time choosing three people they wouldn't want to watch Celebrity Traitors with. Vick went for Jesse J, Jeremiah Asiamah and Samuel L Jackson, while Katie picked Alan Carr, Louis Theroux and Claudia Winkleman. Listeners voted Katie's list the winner.
Elsewhere, the show previewed Friday's Live Lounge, with Sam Smith set to perform a cover, and played back Nothing But Thieves' session, which Charlie Hedges rates among her all-time favourites.
