07 September 2002 starts with Steve explaining how Ricky and Karl spent the half hour before the show playing football but things sour when Karl is annoyed that Ricky can't record links for the 'Best Of' show that will play next week because he must leave immediately after to go on holiday. Later Karl talks about people with big heads and no heads, and his competition turns into such a farce that even he laughs at it.
