Today's Voicenote Roulette came with a twist straight from Blossoms, who'd just recorded a cover of Ash's Stop the Wedding in the Live Lounge. Their voice note challenged Charlie Hedges and Jerry to play Snog, Marry, Avoid with fellow Radio 1 faces Katie Thistleton, Greg James and Jack Saunders. Jerry went straight for it: "100% snogging respectfully Katie Thistleton," while both hosts ended up marrying Greg and binning poor Jack. Listener reaction poured in, with one fan pointing out it's no wonder Greg won — "that is how handsome Greg was until about a couple of months ago."
That Stop the Wedding earworm then sparked a brilliant bit, as Charlie and Jerry phoned round other Radio 1 presenters and sang the chorus down the line to see who'd play along. Greg James answered mid-workout and gamely joined in, Katie Thistleton and Danni Diston both picked up too, but Mollie King never answered, leading to mock outrage from Jerry about being "disrespected."
Elsewhere, Jerry came clean about accidentally keeping a BBC microphone borrowed from IT for six to eight months — "I'm not a thief, I promise," he insisted, prompting a flood of listener confessions about borrowed Tupperware, DVDs and even a school piano. The One Second Club rolled on with gardener Crystal, who grows Venus fly traps and nearly nailed the mystery track. Listeners were also pointed towards tomorrow's Live Lounge, with Nothing But Thieves set to cover Beyoncé's Crazy in Love.
