15 December 2001

1. We're The Challenge (h:mm:ss)

Karl has done a "dynamite job" in procurring some decent prizes. Ricky suggests playing a trivia quiz, where "we're the challenge", but fails to explain what on earth he's on about.

2. I'm Best At Science (0:01:12)

Ricky tries again to explain his quiz. Listeners will phone or email in with a question, and Ricky and Steve must answer. The best question wins the prizes. Ricky doesn' t do trivia, and suggests, "Maybe keep the questions high-brow, to show our intellect", but Steve is less sure - he's best at films.

3. A Listener Called Clive! (0:03:15)

The phone lines are overloaded with questions for the quiz. Karl reads the first question from "Clive", asking which actor first played James Bond. Steve is impressed that they have a listener called Clive. An argument ensues as to whether it was Bob Holness or Sean Connery.

4. Scribbled It Down (0:05:32)

Karl has a good second question, but he scribbled it down and has trouble remembering the detail. He comes up with "Which food, kind of doesn't make you fat". Ricky claims victory with "celery", but Steve disputes it, because he didn't write it down. Further heated debate ensues.

5. Dennis The Stone (0:07:29)

Karl struggles again with the next question, regarding the name of a precious stone worn by the pope. Karl giggles when Ricky suggests "Dennis". Karl doesn't know the answer. Ricky, exasperated: "play a record, play two records".

6. Ross Exposes Himself (0:09:14)

Jonathan Ross pops in, and exposes his "massive member". He's not impressed with the 3 old men (Steve : "I'm only 28, 27!"), he was expecting the "rising young stars" to have foxy chicks. Ross even dresses up for radio, and Steve recounts with amazement how Ross had phoned Ricky for fashion advice. Steve is upset that Ross has made friends with Ricky, but not him. Ross upsets Steve further by slagging off Hip-Hop Hooray ("the worst feature on British radio") . Karl introduces himself, and asks Ross the pope question. Ross answers "Topaz", but Karl still can't make out the correct answer, from his scribble.

7. Where..What.. (0:14:02)

After witnessing Jonathon Ross's dedication to Ricky, and noticing the barman in the local pub ask him if he wanted "his usual table", Steve wonders how Ricky has become "the Daddy". He wonders if Ricky could have someone "iced" for him. At his third attempt, Karl manages to read the answer to the pope question - "amthirst" or "amethyst", as Ricky corrects. One final question from Karl starts badly: "where...what...", and after much jeering, an annoyed Karl finally asks what is the most expensive pub in London (Karl: "and Ricky won't know, 'cause he never pays"). Ricky & Steve continue to ridicule Karl, who doesn't know who's won. Steve worries that they've made a mistake giving airtime to Karl - "he's digging a grave for us!". Steve introduces a new feature - Songs I'd Like To Play On The Radio

Quotes

Steve: (to Ricky) Have you got a single pair of trousers that aren't elasticated at the waist?
Jonathon Ross: Karl, I wish I could say it was a pleasure, but actually it was quite creepy
