Maybe some Neil Yunge. Big 'em up. The "Who Do You Hate" list continues. Mass murderers and politicans? What's the difference? (Ooh, satire). When you email in, send them a lottery ticket. Ricky reads off the list so far and is annoyed by Davina McCall and her "Big Mother" t-shirt. Graham Norton is just approaching from behind. If any of the producers of ''Carry On London'' are listening ... Karl, press the knob to start the record "Spunk". | Maybe some Neil Yunge. Big 'em up. The "Who Do You Hate" list continues.

[[The Holy Trinity]]. Steve has an important question about language and Ricky thinks it's a speech impediment. Germans at least try. The main dialect of Chinese is Gobbledygook. Steve would like to speak to a Chinaman, or a Chinamanwoman - someone who is a professor or who works in a chip shop, but someone who was born in Chinaland. [[Chinatown Is Not A Town]]. You cannot scrute a Chinaman. Call in if you can teach Ricky and Steve the basics of Chinese. | [[The Holy Trinity]].

No one is calling up about Chinese. Benny Hill could speak some Chinese, which is enough to get you by in Peking. Karl's still struggling with English. People are emailing in about Karl not leaving. Someone wanted to bring back [[Cheeky Freak of the Week]] but Karl's not allowed. Ricky wants him to do his story about a fella born with two dicks. Ricky did a photo shoot at a zoo this week and an orangutan there had escaped, but Karl was not impressed. Karl's thoughts on the anteater. Steve does not understand the appeal of Madame Tussaud's. Looky-likeys are similarly an odd concept. Steve uses the word "buxom". Ricky has a look alike now. | No one is calling up about Chinese.

Some new additions to The Hate List. Daniel Bedingfield is such a nob; conversely, Steve Merchant loves him. [[Songs of Phrase]] is "Why Don't They Play the Game of Swingball?" Karl makes an offensive statement. As long as you say something good about someone, you can say something bad. Ricky is in an uproar. [[The Chinese Don't Age Well]]. The teacher in ''Karate Kid'' was only about 36. Fact. Some great prizes include the free CD from today's ''Daily Mirror'', a summer CD, the Fast Food Rockers, and more. Ricky interrupts the reading of the prizes with an idea he has for a new feature ([[Proposed Features|"Good and Bad"]]). | Some new additions to The Hate List.

This show is monkey heavy. If Karl were president, would everyone have a monkey? Karl has a story about a couple who couldn't have kids who bought a "kid" for £3 grand from a dodgy email address. Ricky is livid. [[Suzanne]] watched the news and tried to get Karl to, but he read about the mouse with an ear on its back instead. What would Karl's slogan be if he were president? If he were in charge, he'd think about it for a bit and ask Suzanne. Karl pontificates on homosexuality and somehow the conversation turns towards being brought up in a jungle. | This show is monkey heavy. If Karl were president, would everyone have a monkey?
