Sam and Danni declare war on cushions and crown four pillows the official UK amount

 
Sam and DanniRecap of the show on

The show was dominated by a growing row over bedding, after Danni admitted she was "actually really quite angry" about a hotel room she'd stayed in with nine pillows and cushions on the bed. Listeners flooded in with their own counts, from Alicia's "four pillow, five cushion, bed runner, two duvets and three teddy bears" combo to Alana's eye-watering 16 pillows. The debate reached its peak when caller Tom revealed he and his partner have 11 pillows and cushions on their main bed and 12 on a spare bed, purely "for aesthetic." After hours of back and forth, Sam and Danni landed on a ruling: "four pillows is correct," anyone with more "is a freak."

Elsewhere, the pair tested a theory borrowed from Katie Thistleton and Emil Franchi's Going Home Show, who'd claimed the quietest name in Britain is Claire. Sam and Danni countered with their own theory that Lauren is the loudest name, playing voice notes from several Laurens including colleague Lauren Layfield, before declaring the experiment a success: "Lauren's are the loudest, loud Lauren."

Matt Edmondson also returned to be grilled over his refusal to reveal which celebrity he reckons he could "pull" on his best day, with listeners guessing everyone from Sabrina Carpenter to Zendaya; Matt shut every guess down and reminded them he's already married.
