Scott returns with a mysterious voicemail
Scott returns from a short break in Madrid and Chris confronts him about an unanswered call and an unusually late voicemail. Scott rarely leaves messages, so Chris assumed something serious had happened. The recording contains little more than laughter and a demand to know what is “amazing”.
Scott explains that he had unexpectedly met his friend Dr Dave, a space scientist who lived nearby. At 12:20 in the morning, however, he no longer remembers what prompted the excited call. Chris also describes DJing at a friend’s wedding and realising that, after a few drinks, he had begun singing over the records like Craig David.
Adele Roberts faces the wet seat
Adele Roberts joins Chris for Innuendo Bingo. The clips include a golf tutorial involving wrist cock and shaft position, a deep chug discussed on Springwatch and Adele herself announcing that she wished she was “chilling down on your muffins”.
Early-morning tiredness is blamed for Adele’s own contribution. The soaking also revives the unresolved problem of wet clothes accumulating around Chris’s desk, although he denies that the pile has developed a smell.
Deborah rejects an all-in-one sauce bottle
Connor from Portsmouth is connected directly to Deborah Meaden for Instant Dragons’ Den. His “condiments bottle” resembles a multi-coloured pen, with refillable cartridges of ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard and barbecue sauce selected by pressing different buttons. It is designed for people unable to carry dinner, a drink and several bottles to the table at once.
Deborah points out that people normally choose a sauce at the fridge or carry everything on a tray. Connor claims not to know what a tray is, then asks for “maybe” £20,000 for five per cent, exposing how little financial preparation he has done. Deborah likes him but declines to invest.
Greg James then welcomes back Real or No Real. The unlikely claim that Beyoncé recorded with a Coronation Street mechanic is true: before Destiny’s Child became globally famous, the group featured on Matthew Marsden’s single. Taylor Swift’s childhood job removing praying-mantis pods from Christmas trees and a shop selling chocolate kebabs also prove real.
