The image of the show this week was Leigh-Anne Pinnock's pregnant appearance at London Fashion Week, where she triggered a spray of "breast milk" from a hidden device, prompting Jo and Zoe to reminisce candidly about their own breastfeeding highs and lows, from mastitis and cabbage-leaf remedies to the guilt of switching to formula. Zoe admitted feeling like "a cow with udders" with her own oversupply, while Jo recalled feeling she'd "let down" her daughter Coco when her milk didn't come.
Zoe also marked 30 years since her first appearance on Live & Kicking alongside Jamie Theakston, reminiscing about Mr Blobby battering Jamie to the floor each week, dressing as Princess Leia, wrestling a WWF star, and calling it "possibly the happiest time for me and telly." She was gearing up for a reunion with the old crew that evening.
Elsewhere, Jo shared chaotic tales from a Portuguese wedding, including a mortifying airport queue-jumping incident involving an elderly couple being publicly told off, while both presenters laughed over their shared discomfort at ever sitting front row at fashion shows: "We are not those people," said Jo. Listeners' retro family photos, including one debated "mullet" and Zoe's own teenage Human League-style modelling shoot, kept the laughs going, alongside chat about allotments, houseplants, and a recommended new book on the late Diana Rigg by her daughter Rachel Sterling.
