This Radio 1 month had James the private investigator going undercover twice, once even moving in with his target, plus Meghan Trainor winding up an estate agent and Keith Lemon grilling naked callers on the line.
A husband hired James after finding a secret hotel booking and lingerie purchase, only for the investigation to reveal his wife was planning a surprise birthday party for him. [...]
John Newman became hotel-booking alter ego Dick Steele, answered questions he would not tackle as himself and then competed against his own character singing the EastEnders theme. [...]
Serial ghoster Charlotte admitted ditching a date because he looked better covered in Tough Mudder mud, prompting Scott to discover he had misunderstood the event’s name for years. [...]
Grimmy publicly doubted Scott would turn up for their Sunday spin class while Maya Jama admitted she once wore new clothes on nights out and returned them the next day. [...]
Keith Lemon questioned three callers who all claimed to be naked and tried to identify the real one by listening for suspicious body noises. [...]
Fernando thought he was watching an innocent Lionel Messi clip upstairs until the video changed and its very inappropriate audio blasted through the downstairs Bluetooth speaker. [...]
Lucy’s ghoster ignored the live calls but later promised to post back the fluffy grey scarf she had been asking him to return. [...]
Love Island’s Chris Hughes answered questions about Olivia Attwood, dating and his own book while Maya Jama joined Scott and Chris for Friday. [...]
Meghan Trainor posed as an outrageous American house-buyer, demanded a vegan home with a three-person bath and tried to make an estate agent sing “All About That Bass”. [...]
Scott became Doctor Large for an increasingly awkward role-play, while Mark chose “toffee crisp” as the safe word if things became too uncomfortable. [...]
