Karl's Room 101 choices get underway, Steve thinks Ricky should be a permanent fixture in there, much like The Bible and The Complete Works of Shakespeare on Desert Island Discs. Karl's first choice is rich people who haven't earnt their money, or fat ankles, or girls who go to shoe shops. It's not that specific, but involves the reality show 'Young, Posh and Loaded'. His second choice is rudeness from supermarket employees, who don't say 'hello', 'goodbye' or 'that's our most popular bread'. Ricky agrees as politeness costs nothing, but he would not want to get into a full on chat with someone at the checkout. | Karl's Room 101 choices get underway, Steve thinks Ricky should be a permanent fixture in there, much like The Bible and The Complete Works of Shakespeare on Desert Island Discs.
