The cancelled Wushu Warrior
The planned Best Guest Week booking was a martial artist who intended to balance breeze blocks on his head while an assistant smashed them with a sledgehammer.
Radio 1’s health-and-safety process did not approve the demonstration for the studio.
The team explained the intended stunt while accepting that a live radio office was probably not the ideal location for flying masonry.
Zoe Salmon
Zoe Salmon stepped in at short notice.
She discussed a previous Radio 1 date with Greg James and her appearance on Hole in the Wall. Zoe said the polystyrene wall could genuinely hurt and recalled contestants receiving minor injuries while diving through awkward shapes.
Scott admitted he had kept his shiny silver costume from the programme, whereas Zoe had donated hers to a charity shop.
The team then invited her into Mills: The Musical. Because of her skating experience, Scott proposed eventually converting the production into “Danny Howard: The Musical on Ice” after Edinburgh.
Dear Scott
Listeners commented on Best Guest Week, the abandoned stunt, Zoe’s television appearances and the developing musical.
Oh, What’s Occurring?
One round counted how often the programme had mentioned food during the first part of the week. Across Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, the total reached 143 references.
Other rounds followed the usual prediction format using recent clips and public reactions.
