On first-name terms
Scott heard from listeners whose local businesses knew them exceptionally well.
Jess had befriended her ice-cream-van driver by buying cones even during winter.
When hot weather arrived, he rewarded that loyalty by visiting her house first.
Another listener knew extensive details about a delivery driver’s family, dog and holiday home.
Luke and his wife ordered the same Chinese meal every Friday.
If they had not called by 8pm, the takeaway sometimes rang them to check whether they still wanted the usual order.
The week in review
Scott revisited Katy Perry’s return and the pair’s conversation about everything that had changed during the previous decade.
He also replayed Greg Rutherford remembering the roar of the London 2012 crowd during his Olympic Spinterview.
Owain and the property soundtrack
The Homes Under the Hammer game returned in the weekly review.
Owain had been asked to predict the very literal songs used after particular renovation developments.
Scott regarded the format as a strong candidate for future appearances.
The Birthday Game
The Friday contestant chose from three number-one records from 2 August.
The Wonder Years
The Friday Wonder Years completed the week with major songs and listener memories from successive years.
Handover
Scott handed over after directing listeners to the weekly podcast for Katy Perry, Greg Rutherford and Owain Wyn Evans.
