Gogglebox enters the wet area
Chris Steed and Stephen Webb from Gogglebox play Innuendo Bingo. Their familiarity with television makes the clips particularly effective, and both bring the commentary and expressions that normally accompany their sofa appearances into the wet studio.
The round includes excitable broadcasters, Lorraine receiving an unexpected surprise from Levi Roots and increasingly impossible wording from daytime programmes. Scott feels that he already knows the pair through tele [...]
A very wet creative lecture
Scott speaks at a radio festival inside the British Library about creativity, then demonstrates the principle by making Chris and Matt Fincham play Innuendo Bingo. Critics, executives and senior BBC figures initially appear uncertain, but gradually warm to the spectacle.
Only three clips are required, including a BBC West Midlands bird discussion that sounds considerably less innocent in the reading room. Chris immediately imagines a Bingo world tour through the O2, R [...]
Helen Skelton returns to Bingo
Helen Skelton removes her watch and joins Chris for an exceptionally wet Innuendo Bingo. The clips cover Rio's discoloured swimming pool, Val's wetter mixture on The Great British Bake Off, the wording of “The Owl and the Pussy-cat” and an unfortunate choice in The Chase.
Helen recalls taking the highest offer during her own appearance on The Chase, despite the audience wanting caution. She survives the clips with the same competitive approach, while Scott prematur [...]
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.

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.
The director's instruction produces a much more forceful kiss than Mollie expected, repeated across numerous takes. She is apprehensive about the wet game, eventually avoiding Chris's gaze when the later clips become too difficult, bu [...]
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 [...]
Bobby Norris embraces Bingo
Live Lounge Month begins with OneRepublic, but first Bobby Norris arrives from The Only Way Is Essex for an enthusiastic round of Innuendo Bingo. Bobby already follows the feature and commits fully, laughing through clips from television and radio while becoming increasingly drenched.
Scott is delighted by Bobby's openness about how TOWIE is made. Bobby explains that producers regularly call cast members to collect the latest Essex gossip, allowing arguments and revel [...]

The Tattoo Fixers enter the wet area
Jay Hutton, Alice Perrin and Sketch Porter visit ahead of Tattoo Fixers on Holiday and join Chris for Innuendo Bingo. Sketch worries about the temporary tattoo added to his arm, while Alice arrives ready to enjoy every clip rather than preserve any dignity.
The game travels through awkward radio links, property programmes, the Open golf and a Tour de France reference to exceptionally long skid marks. Alice declares the soaking the best experience ever, and th [...]
