Lee from Derby rang into The Swap Exchange hoping for Hey There Delilah by the Plain White T's, and the offer he put up left Mylo and Rosie genuinely stunned. Lee, who described himself as "a self-employed lorry driver stroke wedding photographer," offered a professional studio couples' photoshoot with a framed print as his trade. Rosie immediately angled for a "sexy couple's one" with Mylo, who was told to bring back "his leotard from Friday's shoot," and the pair agreed the deal live on air even as they admitted afterwards that the prize isn't actually real.
The duo also spent a chunk of the show rebranding listeners' jobs, after Danny in Suffolk, nicknamed "fishy Danny" for his work in the fish trade, got them on to the subject of lorry drivers. Mylo and Rosie announced they are now calling truckers "Haulage Hunks" rather than "truckers," and when a regular bin man listener complained he'd been left out, they crowned refuse collectors "Bin Babes" instead, with Rosie declaring "that is good… we'll write it down."
Blossoms were named tune of the week with their new track Husband, with Mylo and Rosie reminding listeners they'd already claimed credit for Jamie Miller's rise up the charts after making him tune of the week a few weeks back, joking "we feel like proud parents." Andy from Nottingham had a decent go on Give Us Another One, talking the hosts round to awarding points for "stale wet wipe" as an answer to drying yourself after a shower, finishing on nine points.
