Trevor Nelson used his daily Trevor Trove slot to explain why Monday felt bittersweet: he'd been due to see Jill Scott perform at the Royal Albert Hall the following night but had to give up his tickets. He played her duet with Anthony Hamilton, So in Love, as a consolation, telling listeners "no wonder you were gutted to miss her live" after one text came in sympathising.
Travel presenter Kirsten O'Brien brought some behind-the-scenes Traitors gossip into the show, revealing her husband Mark had just returned home after two months away working as a director on the programme. Trevor pressed her for details on the challenges he'd been setting, but Kirsten admitted "he tells us nothing" – he did, however, bring her a Loch Ness tea towel as a souvenir, which Trevor declared should have been a shield.
The Five Seconds to Name quiz caused the usual Monday carnage, with wrong guesses flooding in for Dire Straits, Culture Club, Pink Floyd and even John Denver before Sarah in Langley finally nailed it with Paul Simon, helped by the cryptic clue about "two first names" who don't mind a third, given many fans still call him Al. Sarah, dog-sitting a "poo" called Barney while his owners cruise near Madeira, got a shout-out for her friends Jenny and Lisa, her usual quiz partners.
Trevor also plugged Tuesday's Sara Cox Breakfast Show, teasing that Michelle Keegan and Douglas Booth would be guests, joking that the pair "love to cause a right drama."
