The tactical salad
Scott remains concerned that Chris is eating almost every evening meal from the barbecue, still the only cooking equipment in his new house. Chris believes he has solved the nutritional problem by eating a “tactical salad” at lunchtime, allowing him to consume only meat at night.
Breakfast remains less organised and can include leftovers from the previous barbecue. Scott warns that the hot weather will end and a real kitchen will eventually be required, but Chris is determined [...]
A-level results and sick voices
The Breakfast Show accompanies listeners collecting their A-level results. Chris remembers smashing his hand before his own exams and having to dictate some answers, leaving him unsure what grades would arrive. Scott and Chris read messages from successful students and direct worried listeners to the exam-results helpline.
Adele has cancelled a concert because of illness and posts a quiet, apologetic video demonstrating an excellent “sick voice”. Chris attempts to [...]
An Olympian orders the whole menu
Real or No Real considers self-healing fabric made with proteins from squid tentacles. The claim sounds ridiculous but is genuine: pressing the torn material together can repair it. An Australian badminton player ordering six portions of fries, 40 nuggets, six burgers and six brownies after leaving the Olympics is also real.
Scott and Chris approve of the post-competition feast, particularly when they discover that the food in the Olympic village is free. It rem [...]
A lunch divides Scott and Chris
Chris returns with a pasta-heavy lunch for Scott, who is trying to eat more salad and immediately complains that the meal will make him sleepy. Chris points out the broccoli and accuses Scott of becoming showbiz now that their old lunches no longer meet his standards.
Attention then turns to the next day's interview with Will Smith and Margot Robbie. Scott wants both of them in suits for the occasion and repeatedly stresses the scale of the booking, while Chris wo [...]
Scott returns with a mysterious voicemail
Scott returns from a short break in Madrid and Chris confronts him about an unanswered call and an unusually late voicemail. Scott rarely leaves messages, so Chris assumed something serious had happened. The recording contains little more than laughter and a demand to know what is “amazing”.
Scott explains that he had unexpectedly met his friend Dr Dave, a space scientist who lived nearby. At 12:20 in the morning, however, he no longer remembers what pro [...]

A humming toilet and an Olympic anniversary
Scott's toilet has begun vibrating and humming loudly enough to become a household mystery. Listeners with plumbing knowledge diagnose a faulty ball valve, and a repair visit is arranged. The programme also looks back four years to the London 2012 opening ceremony and the collective excitement of watching it unfold.
Becky, Jonas and a secret house
Becky Hill speaks to Chris after he followed and unfollowed her on social media in the hope that she would [...]
Chris returns from Ohio
Chris comes back from the Gathering of the Juggalos, the Insane Clown Posse festival in Ohio, where he has been filming a programme about extreme festivals for Radio 1 and BBC iPlayer. The experience included more nudity than he expects the finished film will be able to show.
In the intense heat, a mixture of sunscreen, insect repellent and sweat ran into his eyes. Chris eventually left the festival and spent roughly an hour rinsing himself at the hotel. The trip leaves h [...]
A doorbell sings Celine Dion
Chris is away for two days, leaving Scott to present alone without Bangers or Innuendo Bingo. Scott discovers that his troublesome doorbell can change tunes and selects "My Heart Will Go On". The result makes an ordinary delivery feel like the climax of Titanic, and the person at the door is understandably uncertain how to respond.
Listeners report owning similar bells, including one that can accept uploaded music. The feature creates the worrying possibility that an [...]
The humiliating new doorbell
A friend replaces Scott's broken doorbell with one that plays an embarrassingly jaunty tune. It sounds enough like an ice-cream van to confuse visitors and neighbours, and Scott suspects that his former flatmate may have helped choose it. The apparently minor household repair begins a story that will continue as Scott discovers the bell has several selectable songs.
