Back after TreadMills
Scott returned to his afternoon programme after recovering from the 24-hour challenge.
Listeners asked about his feet, sleep and the difficult period after the adrenaline had faded.
He thanked everyone who had donated or kept him company.
Dutch Santa
The programme explored Sinterklaas and the Netherlands’ different Christmas traditions.
Scott was fascinated by the earlier arrival, ceremonial appearances and customs that did not match the British version of Father Christmas.
Listeners with Dutch family connections explained which parts they had continued after moving to the UK.
Mel Giedroyc’s tooth trouble
Mel Giedroyc joined the programme and discussed a dental problem that had become impossible to ignore.
The conversation moved from the initial damage to the practical difficulties of broadcasting and performing while conscious of a troublesome tooth.
Mel treated the situation with her usual self-deprecating humour, while Scott was more interested in the uncomfortable details.
Handover
Scott handed over after his first regular programme since the challenge.
