Scott refuses to leave the house with a broken veneer
The front of one of Scott's veneers has fallen away, leaving what appears to be a missing tooth. He has avoided social events because smiling makes it look as though he has been punched, although the underlying tooth is still present and a repair is booked.
The temporary gap explains the subject nobody in the studio has wanted to mention. Chris had assumed it was a Christmas injury, while Scott is mainly relieved that radio allows him to work [...]
The strange week between Christmas and New Year
Scott and Chris return on Breakfast unsure whether Wednesday still counts as Bamboleo Wednesday when most listeners have only just gone back to work. Chris had to text the previous evening to confirm that the show was really happening before leaving the pub early.
They greet people working through the holiday period and defend themselves against claims that the programme is pre-recorded. A listener heading to New York for her 21st birthday helps by [...]
The mums open the wrong son's presents
Scott and Chris repeat their most uncomfortable Christmas tradition. Each has selected, wrapped and delivered a present to the other's mother, but both mums have been told that the parcel was chosen by their own son.
They call the women and ask them to open the gifts live on air, accepting praise for taste and effort that belongs to somebody else. Scott admits he has invested more thought in Chris's mum than in his own girlfriend, while Chris enjoys the dec [...]
London fails the Christmas market test
Scott visits the South Bank expecting a major Christmas market and finds only a handful of huts. He asks listeners to nominate somewhere more convincing and considers travelling to Birmingham or another city before the week ends.
The studio has already created its own seasonal atmosphere with crackers and a strong smell of Camembert. One producer is so disturbed by cheese that the decision to serve it early in the morning becomes a genuine workplace problem [...]
The window closes at 3.55
Natasha calls to confirm the rules of Relationship Transfer Deadline Day. Scott and Chris decide that anybody considering a break-up must act by 3.55pm, after which it becomes unacceptably cruel to leave a partner during Christmas.
Once the deadline passes, every existing relationship is protected until an unspecified reopening date in January. Natasha has no intention of using the window, but callers with doubts receive a final warning that indecision will commit them [...]
The bridge survives the fire
Scott wakes to thousands of messages after a serious overnight fire at Fleet Services on the M3. Nobody is injured and firefighters control the blaze, but the services and the pedestrian bridge joining the northbound and southbound sites suffer smoke damage.
Reporter Joe Palmer visits the scene and confirms that the Scott Mills Bridge is standing and at least one commemorative plaque is intact. The windows are blackened and crossing is temporarily restricted, yet the [...]
