Nadine Coyle had become homeware
Chris was away, leaving Scott to discover one of the strangest ranges of pop-star merchandise the show had encountered.
Sarah sold items celebrating the famous Irish Popstars audition where Nadine Coyle claimed to be 18, gave her date of birth and immediately realised she had accidentally revealed she was only 16.
The moment had become cult television history.
Sarah had turned it into decorative merchandise.
There were plates, prayer candles, pocket mirrors and pencils carrying references to the date of birth Nadine had tried to correct.
One item even incorporated a painted image onto a blazer.
Scott replayed the original clip and remained delighted by the speed with which Nadine realised what she had done.
The Basic alarm arrived
Scott introduced a new sound effect for moments of unmistakably basic behaviour.
Examples included clapping when an aeroplane landed and proudly ordering drinks that people might normally associate with their teenage years.
The point was not that anybody should actually stop doing those things.
It was simply that the alarm could now identify the moment.
Winter bulking had officially started
Scott also declared the beginning of winter bulking.
Cold weather and heavy clothing meant, in his view, that the pressure to maintain a summer body could be suspended until after Christmas.
Listeners enthusiastically reported that they had already begun.
Luke Kempner stood in on Bangers
With Chris absent, impressionist Luke Kempner became Scott’s temporary Bangers opponent.
Luke supplied a collection of celebrity voices before choosing DJ Khaled’s “All I Do Is Win”.
Scott countered with Sigala and DJ Fresh’s “Say You Do”.
Caller Gary chose Scott.
