An accidental eyebrow slit
Scott notices that one of Chris's eyebrows looks different. Chris admits that he found a trimmer in a kitchen drawer, attempted to control the growth and accidentally removed a vertical section.
He initially fears that he looks like Dappy, but social media reveals that eyebrow slits have returned as a 2016 trend. Chris decides that the mistake proves he remains fashionable and begins encouraging everybody else to copy him.

It's tradition for Scott to play the first Christmas song of the year around about now on Radio 1, but this year's listener reaction seemed significantly more negative. [...]
Innuendo Bingo accompanies a driving test
Sophie passes her driving test at the second attempt after arranging for Radio 1 to be playing in the car. She wanted something familiar to calm her nerves but forgot that the test would coincide with Innuendo Bingo.
A clip from Only Connect begins during the manoeuvre she failed previously. Sophie concentrates on her observations while facing the examiner, who responds with an awkward shuffle rather than laughter. She completes the manoeuvre and credits [...]
Mollie King gets her solo soaking
Mollie King returns for her first solo appearance on Innuendo Bingo. Before the water begins, she explains how she selected actor Tim for the romantic scenes in her video and then had to warn him that the role involved kissing her.

Max appears on a left buttock
A photograph spreads online of a hairy bottom carrying Max Branning's face, the words “Max Branning” and his phrase “I can't help myself”. Scott reaches Jake Wood, who learned about it when the tattooed man's sister sent him the image.
Jake has never met the owner and was not asked for permission. He describes a mixture of pride and mild disgust, jokes that the surrounding hair improves his own hairline and accepts that the left buttock was probably the correct loca [...]
Graeme Swann faces the clips
Former England cricketer Graeme Swann arrives for Innuendo Bingo while touring theatres with commentator Henry Blofeld. Their contrasting personalities supply stories from cricket, audience participation and life on overseas tours, where an Indian hotel could mean endless computer games while the West Indies offered considerably more freedom.
Chris recalls bidding at a cricket awards auction merely to look involved, only for nobody to outbid him. Graeme understands t [...]
A new statue paying tribute to Alan Shearer has been unveiled outside the Newcastle stadium of St James' Park, but even Scott with his limited knowledge of football isn't sure about the likeness to the footballing legend. [...]
Chris returns from the fires
Chris comes back from a deliberately straightforward holiday in Spain, only for forest fires to approach his accommodation and force him to leave. Scott had watched the increasingly alarming updates on social media and is relieved to have him safely back beside his still largely empty house.
The renovation has supplied Chris with a barbecue but little else. Attempting to clean after his return, he dismantles the Hoover and places its rigid nozzle against the dusty te [...]
