Hello and welcome to Monday's Radio 1 All Day Breakfast podcast. Here come the best bits of today's show. Before we begin, let's start at the very start and welcome everyone to the new week. Good morning! Hello! Hello!

We're live! It's The Breakfast Show, a brand new week. So, another Monday is upon us, Callum. It is indeed. What are you doing? Something sad today, no doubt. So, welcome. Hope your weekends were good. What's going on? Pile in, please, on the usual number, 03 700 100 100. We're going to have a good one. It might be cold. It might be dark. It might be wet. It might be the 10th of February. Oh, it's my cousin's birthday. I must message him.

But we will get through this together, won't we? Yeah. You know what day it is today, don't you? It's Monday? Yeah, but it's not as any Monday. Oh, OK. It's not as any Monday. It's mega and it's massive. Oh, of course. Yeah, come on, get with the programme. Sorry, sorry. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

But we're not doing Mega Massive Monday. We're doing Mega Massive Mum Day. Oh, yeah. Where we've been tasked to mummify our shows. And that just immediately makes me want to do a... Yeah. The mummy noise. Remember the mummy noise? Or the Lana Del Rey noise. Hmm.

Today on The Breakfast Show, we're going to do mum things because we like doing that. That's a good excuse to do mum things where we celebrate your mum. We're also going to do a game of sit down, stand up with Diane from The Traitors. Oh, yes. That'll be fun. Do you reckon your mum's up for joining in? Yeah, I think so. Okay. Yeah. More on that later. But also today, we're spoiled. It's an embarrassment of riches. I found a dog saying hello.

Don't know if you've seen the dog saying hello, but this is how we're going to start today's breakfast show. Who's that? It's going, oh! It's like an Only Ways Essex hello. There you go. That's how we're going to start today's show. We start as we mean to go on. We're going to have a good time. Let's begin. It's a busy old show ahead of us, and we had a very nice time, didn't we, Amy? Yeah. We had some firefighters on the quiz.

We got you up to date with all the latest things, including Super Bowl stuff. We had, well, obviously some mum stuff because it was Mega Massive Mum Day. So Diane from the Traitors came on and did sit down, stand up. We celebrated mum things a bit later on as well. So let's crack on with Diane. Not crack on with her. You know what I mean. Play the tape. It is Mega Massive Mum Day on the Radio and Breakfast Show. And we thought we'd get...

One of the most famous mums that has been beamed into our lives over the last couple of years, Diane from The Traitors. Welcome to the Radio 1 Breakfast Show. Thank you very much for having me. We were so sad not to speak to you when the show was on last series. You were so busy, so booked up. My God. First of all, what did you make of this series and how was it watching a new load of people in your castle? Well, I wasn't sure that I was going to enjoy it at all, but then I had a six-hour train journey, so I took

to put in the time I read all the blurb and took notes how sad is that and I had winners immediately just got good vibes from them so on that list was Alex and Frankie and Tyler and Kaz they were my favourite favourites I just thought they were great

I thought a good game would be played by Lisa and Yin and Dan but of course they got rid of them. Yin was in and out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yin was out so quickly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We didn't even get anything from Yin. She could have been a legendary contestant. Yeah. Because she, from the bits we saw, she was quite bonkers. Yeah. And we need a bit of that, don't we? But I think if she'd gone in showing that bonkers bit, they might have kept her in a bit longer. Yeah, but she sort of did a weird philosophy thing, didn't she? Yeah, and I think she scared them. When the moon

collide. But that's great. I love quirky people. Yeah, that's what you need in a show. Absolutely. So I thought there were quite a few tears, you know, early on and I sort of felt they needed a bit more fun. Claudia provided lots of fun as did Alexander. But I felt our series, I mean, all the series have been absolutely phenomenal because of the nature of the game. But I

for me I just like a little bit more fun the ending of series 2 was way better than the end of series 3 well that's because you had a traitor at the end yeah my god yeah yeah she wrote the H oh I know TV moment of the decade that wasn't it everyone was screaming no don't do it no okay well I'm glad that you enjoyed watching it yes I did um

And did you... The Alexander thing is interesting to me because we were watching at home and we thought, oh, please, he's got to come back because he got off the train, didn't he? He's got to get him in. He's definitely good. I'm pleased. I just thought he was a very respectful player, but equally he was funny. And he...

came forward with his opinions without getting emotionally really uptight or upset so it made him be able to play it more level-headedly and he was very selfless because if you remember he was helping Frankie because he realised he wasn't going to win but he could help somebody else. Yeah, and I just wish he and Frankie had won. Not that I have any objection to Jake and Leanne because at least it was a faithful win but those other two were on my list from the beginning. The Queen has spoken. Yeah.

Words only, my opinion. Diane, we loved watching you on telly. It was so good. And I'm pleased you're with me today on The Breakfast Show. We're celebrating mums today, Mega Massive Mum Day. And we're going to dive into your phone contacts because I imagine a year on from The Traitors, some good celebs in there. Ah, yeah, a couple. Okay, Diane, we're going to do Sit Down, Stand Up on Mega Massive Mum Day. It's got a theme tune, Sit Down, Stand Up.

Sit down, stand up. Sit down, stand up. Are you sitting or standing? It's a very simple game. It was actually created by a listener called Mia and we have stolen it. We were traitors to her. Great game. And I think you should go first. So where are we going to go today? We are going to phone Kelly Holmes this morning. I wouldn't have... How has the Dame Kelly Holmes friendship been struck up? It's...

It's because we run, basically. Although she runs a lot more than me, as in she's a lot faster. So do we think, I mean, famously, Kelly Holmes, as one of our most decorated Olympians and legendary sports people, she's often moving, right? Those athletes have to keep moving. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, well, let's do sit down, stand up. And do you think she'll be sitting or standing? I'm going to guess she's sitting.

Kelly Holmes is definitely standing. She's always on the go. Let's call her. And so the rules are you're not allowed to say anything else apart from are you sitting or standing? No hellos, no nothing. Nothing. Yeah. OK. Straight in. Hello. Are you sitting or standing? Sitting. Oh, thank you, Kelly. I got that right.

Dame Kelly Holmes. Hello, it's Greg James here on The Breakfast Show. Hi, Greg. How are you doing? Kelly, what do you mean? I think I'll be running around. What do you mean you're sitting down? You've always saw them on the move. You're Kelly Holmes.

i know but as usual everything's like stuck in traffic i'm calling fix here diane you must have known what no we're just such good friends aren't we kelly that's how i knew that by the way we're normally running around though aren't we well that's true yeah you're absolutely right i love this i love this friendship can you can you tell me when you first um when you first met diane

Yeah, where did we meet? Loose Women. Oh, my gosh. Loose Women. That's right, yes. You came on to Loose Women and I was obsessed. And then we met in Ireland at an awards thing and we were supposed to run the next morning, but I'd partied until four o'clock in the morning and I couldn't get up. I love Diane. She says it straight and we've created a nice bond, haven't we? Yeah. Dame Kelly Holmes, what a treat to chat to you. Thanks for being on The Breakfast Show and thanks for picking up.

Thanks, Mo. Thanks a lot. I'll be in touch. Bye. Bye. Let's go again. And should I call someone now? I think I should call... Maybe I'll call... Do you know what? I'm going to call my mum. Good idea. Yeah, I'm going to call my mum. See what she's up to. Should I call the landline? I think it's good. Very few people in my life have got a landline.

What do you think she's doing? I don't think... My mum never rests. She's always up doing something. That's because she's a great mum. She is a great mum. Yeah. I tell her to slow down, she just can't. So, I mean, I've got good insight here. I'm going to say she's standing. So am I. OK, right, here we go. Sit down, stand up. On Mega Massive Mum Day, I'm going to call my mum. They'd better be listening.

Oh, no. Oh, boy. Oh, my God, boys. All right. I'm going to call my mum. I'm going to call her mobile. It will take her forever to answer her phone. Okay. Because it's in a wallet. Then she'll get glasses to put... Has your phone got a check? Yeah, exactly. You know, nothing wrong with glasses. That's the loudest phone in the world. Calling mum mobile. Hello?

Are you sitting down or are you standing up? I'm standing up. Yay! Yes, yes, yes, yes. Thank you for picking up. That's all right. Everything all right?

Yeah, yeah, fine. I've just got a delivery and two deliveries. She's busy, Mum. Yeah, the house phone was ringing. I tried the landline and I tried your mobile. I know, because I was running up and down stairs with delivery men. All right, OK, well, I'll leave you to the delivery men. Yeah, lovely. All right, speak to you later. Bye. Bye, bye, bye.

Busy. See, they're always busy on the go. Always. Always. Okay, so that's another point for you as well. So it's 2-1. And Callum Leslie's here. Hello. Callum's our very wonderful newsreader, but he's so much more than that. He's a real-life person as well.

We love him. Oh, thanks, Craig. We don't know much about your mum and dad, though, do we? Not loads. No. We'll talk about them then again. I've never spoken to your mum on the radio. No, only off radio. Yeah, in real life. I wonder if she's... Do you reckon she'll pick up? Because I was worried that my mum wasn't going to. She'll be working. So she should be by her phone. It's whether she's in a meeting, I guess. OK, so what do we think then, Diane? Do we think that Callum Leslie's mum is going to be sitting or standing? If she's at a meeting, sitting.

All right, I'll make it interesting and I go for standing. Here we go. OK. Don't be alarmed. I have got your mum's number. Here we go. Hello? Hello, Mum, it's Callum. Are you sitting down or are you standing up? I'm sitting down. Yay! LAUGHTER

You might be on the radio a little bit right now. You're on the radio. Good morning. Hi, it's Greg James. Hello. Lovely to chat to you again, but you've just lost me a point today. Hooray. Well done, you. Diane from the Traitors is here. Being quite treacherous, actually. I'm in the middle of a video meeting. Who's that? So... OK, you go. Love you, Mum. Bye. Bye.

She's in a meeting. Oh, no. That's a great one. That's really good. This game has been a disaster for me, but Diane. Yeah, but I'm winning, basically. Well done, Diane. That's impressive. Thank you. You've won. Are we going to do one more? Ross. Okay, we need to call Ross, who famously is your son. Yeah. Greg isn't my son, but Ross is. Yes, there it is. What?

What do people shout to you in the street? Do they shout that? They used to shout traitor, actually, and I keep telling everybody I'm a faithful. But people don't come up to you and go, do the line, do the line. No, they do. Well, they ask me to do. But Ross is. Well, they also try and mimic my accent, so I say, well, when you can say hi now, Brian Kye, you can have a go at the accent. Hi now, Brian Kye. No, that's wrong. But Ross has. No, I didn't speak like that. No, I'd have been taken away in a wee van. Right, OK.

Right, ready? That's how we're going to get you out of here. There's a van waiting. Yeah, well, it's better than a coffin, I have to say. Oh, God! Is he sitting down standing up? I think he's sitting down. Are you sitting down or standing up? I'm currently sitting down. Yay! You didn't even do it again? No, I was sitting!

No, no, that was horizontal arm sitting. Were you really sitting down or standing up? Sitting down. Yeah, well, that was, no, that was horizontal because we forgot I rang you too quickly. Greg and I were supposed to discuss whether you were standing or sitting. So I put my arm horizontally. So I went that as well, Greg. She's so... Oh, God, Greg, come on, step up. It's nice to have you on The Breakfast Show. But look, your mum is so treacherous. She's so devious. She really is. She's so debilitated.

Anyway, Ross, how are you? I'm very well, thank you, mate. Very well. I don't keep myself out of trouble. I'm trying to keep mum out of trouble. We do a thing on The Breakfast Show called Mum Things, and because your mum's here, I think it would be a good opportunity to ask you a classic thing that your mum does. Is there a thing that when you're growing up, you're like, oh, my God, she always does this one thing? She corrects grammar a lot. LAUGHTER

Lots. It's not just for the family, that's across the board. I like correcting grammar too. Maybe me and Diane are going to go and be friends now. Yeah, I think so. And we'll get them running, Ross. Yeah, just running around talking about grammar. Ross, thanks for being on The Breakfast Show. No problem. Thanks for having me. And yeah, best of luck with the rest of the conversation. No, we've peaked. We absolutely have peaked. Thanks so much, Ross. Speak to you soon.

Bye. A good game. I've been schooled quite literally by you. Amazing work, Diane. You win the game. You've won our hearts. You win everything. Thanks so much for being on The Breakfast Show today, Diane. We've loved it. Thank you. Lovely Diane. Lovely Val. Lovely Rosemary. That's my mum as well. Time now for some more mum things. We do the rotations, don't we? We do mum things. We do dad things. We do nan things. We've done dog things. We've done cat things, haven't we? Yeah. But tell you what, one we haven't done...

Ever, I think it was School Things. I think that would be a good one. We've said that we would do School Things, but for now... Mum Things, Mum Things. Mum Things, Mum Things. Come on then, this is the sort of thing we're after. My ex-boyfriend's mum used to carry round this little bag in her handbag...

Like a little makeup bag, but instead of makeup, it would have sachets of sauce. Lovely. Little sachets of sauce. Or this is also good. So she has a thing where she's got about five pairs of glasses all around the house because she constantly loses them. Yeah, reading glasses in every room. Yeah. Really, really good. So send us yours, please. Voice note 03700100100. Celebrating mum things today.

Heath's in Colchester and says, how about this one as a good mum thing? Saying they need to leave and then chatting by the door for another 30 minutes. That's good. These are all good. These are celebrations of why mums are so great, by the way. Do you relate to this one, Callum? My mum gets everything slightly wrong. For example, Billie Eilish is Mrs English. LAUGHTER

And Daniel Craig is Craig Daniels. They're good. They're very good. Do you want one from my mum? A little packed lunch wherever you're going. Doesn't matter how long the trip is or just a little sandwich or a little thing. Even if it's just a 20 minute train. You're like, I'm fine, I'm just going out to town. Just if you're hungry on the way. Yeah, that's it. Whenever I go and see my mum, she will always feed me. There's always food. Even if it's just...

I've just had breakfast and I come around, I'm going for a walk, a dog walk or something, and she'll go, can I get some more toast? I've got crumpets. Do you want a crumpet? And actually the answer is always yes, if there's a crumpet on offer. Exactly. I think my mum has just seen that when I get hungry, I don't function anymore. So it's just over the years realised that I need to be fed quite a lot. She knows her boy. She knows. She does. So this is a good one.

Mum things. My mum sends me photos of animals, but really, really bad quality photos. This is the running joke in Bella's family. So her mum, Linz, the joke is that whenever she takes a photo of something, it's always taken on a... It's like, Linz, why are you taking photos on a potato? Use your phone. It looks like you've taken that on a potato.

How about this one? My mum thing is when you're upstairs or in a different room and she shouts you and then you shout back and then she doesn't reply. One more for now. So a mum thing for me was on like a Saturday or Sunday morning as a teenager when she would come in, find the curtains wide open at some ungodly hour and start gathering up all the washing. Like, why do mums do that? That's a good one. It's like, right, up now, come on, come on. You've had enough sleep.

And also, I don't know if you remember this from sleepovers when you were at school. We should always be like...

Oh, it smells like boys in here. And immediately open every single window. Scott's in Bromley and says, my mum likes to scream that I'm driving too fast, even though I'm doing 27 in a 30. She'll be holding on for dear life. Oh, watch out! Megan, good morning! Good morning! Welcome to Mum Things. You're on with me and Callum Leslie. Say hi to Callum Leslie. Hello, Callum Leslie. How are you? I'm good, thank you. How are you? Good.

Yeah, super well, thank you. Go on then, let's start with a small talk. Let's get on with the mum thing, please, Megan. What have you got for us? Of course. So my mum has a Mary Poppins-esque sandbag that seems to be bottomless, but it's always got staple items in it, which include sugar-free mints,

a paper diary that's hardly ever used, several pairs of reading glasses because you never know when you'll need to at any one time, and obviously the big phone wallet. She's pretty much ready to go on a Duke of Edinburgh expedition.

at any moment. Really nice way to sum it up. Yeah, the reading glasses, well, maybe it's connected to that phrase that they say, I've got eyes in the back of my head. Maybe that's why, because they need reading glasses for all the sets of eyes they have. You just reminded me about the mints in the handbag. Whenever I go for a walk with my mum, she'll have a pocket full of...

of like sort of sherbet lemons. There might be a Werther's in there. Do you know what she loves? A mint humbug. And her mum did that and she's inherited that. So I wonder if it's passed down. So it was a matter of time before... Actually, I should just check my pockets in case there's some mints in there.

Oh, yes, I'd put mincemeat in. Oh, I got that slightly wrong. Oh, dear. Oh, no, that's very soggy. Megan, thank you for... What? That's actually quite a good dad joke, that.

Let's do it for dad things. I still say it's one of the best games that has ever appeared on Radio 1. It was done by Alice Levine and it was the game where you just say, am I saying mince or am I saying mince? Oh, brilliant. I'll do a quick one on you, Callum, ready? Okay. Mince. You're saying mince? Yeah, but what one? As in the meat? I was saying beef, yeah. Megan, I'll do one on you quickly. Am I saying mince or mince? Here we go.

Mints. Mints? No, I'm doing it. I'm playing the game. You're guessing. You're guessing. Okay, am I saying mints or mints? Here we go. Mints. The sweets. I was saying the sweets. Yeah, good work. Nice work. I like a game within a game. I like that. Megan, thank you. We've got to move on. Craig!

Hello, gents. Go on, then. Give us your mum thing. So, any five-minute journey turns into a 20-minute one. You've got to pop back in the house four or five times. You've got to purse. Anything. A window's left open. Glasses. Every single time. Yeah. What you're talking about there is faffing. Yeah.

There's a lot of faffing around, isn't there, in life? And if any money's involved, and it could be £5, £10, it's always in pound coins. Always. Really good. We've got some amazing, amazing... Have a listen to some of these, Craig. Some good voice notes here. Here we go with...

This one. I don't know if anyone else's mum does this, but my mum texts to ask if she can come round and she's pretty much already outside, ready to knock on the door as soon as we say yes. Yeah, that's a good one. Also, how about... Oh, I like this is good. Whenever you need a tissue, there is one.

Yes. Where does it come from? The little packet of tissues. Where do the tissues come from? Always a tiny packet of tissues. Always, always. Always have something you need. Yeah. How about this one from Lisa? Mums are the rulers of passive aggressive land. No, I'm fine. I am fine. Tell you what, don't you worry about little old me. I am fine. That's what I get when, if we go out for dinner or something and she's on a stool.

You know those high... Most of the tables are normal and the table that no one really wants is the high table with stools. And she'll go, yes, I'll be fine on a stool. And then she's moaning the whole time. She's pretending like she's on top of a skyscraper. It's ever so high. It's a bit high. I don't like this. It's a bit high. That's the same as sitting on the floor. We did that yesterday. Happily sit on the floor while moaning. LAUGHTER

No, no, don't worry about me. I'll go on the floor and then moan about it for an hour. To get my attention, she'll go through everyone else's names first. She'll go, Joanne, Molly, Jenny, Jessica. Molly and Jenny are our two dogs that died 12 years ago. All right, one more for now. Here we go. On video calls, all you...

All you see is her face. Her face will just cover the entire screen. Oh, yeah. Do you FaceTime your mum, Callum? Yes, I do FaceTime. Does she hold the phone very, very close? Actually, I think my mum's pretty good at FaceTime. Basically, I can see up my mum's nose when she's doing FaceTime. Just push it back a bit, mum. Just put it down on the table. I can still see you.

Amazing round of mum things. Thank you, Megan. Thank you, Craig. Have a good day. And thank you, Callum Leslie. You're welcome. And to all the mums, we love you. We'd be lost without you. You're amazing. And now let's get you up to date with all the latest things. All the latest things. We'll start with the Super Bowl. If you didn't know, it was the Philadelphia Eagles versus the Kansas City Chiefs and the Eagles stormed to victory.

Maybe because Stormzy was there having a great time. I'm here to see Kendrick, to be fair. I'm not going to act like I know everything about NFL, but I appreciate it, you know. That's most people in the UK, isn't it? It's like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you see the Super Bowl? Yeah, I saw the Super Bowl. Yeah, I loved all the kicking. Loved all the kicking. Loved the singing. Loved Kendrick. I thought it was great. Brought out SZA. They did Luther. They also did all the stars.

A lot of the Taylor Swift fans were sad that they didn't do Bad Blood. That would have been good, wouldn't it? What did you make of the booing, producer Amy? No, a big Taylor Swift fan, what did you make of it? It's unacceptable to boo people like that in a public forum. I just don't like it. But it was sports. It was a sports fan. Go away. It wasn't real. They don't really hate her. I've told you a million times I will come over there and I will come over there.

I thought it sounded fantastic. Not the booing, the Kendrick stuff. That was great. Next up, let's go to Paris, shall we? Where Juliana on TikTok has spotted a phantom opera singer. The phantom of the opera. But on a bicycle through the streets of Paris. Beautiful, but haunting. And also gives me an idea. I cycle in most mornings if it's not raining and because I'm weak.

I will try that tomorrow and I'll try it on the way in. Very difficult, very dangerous to do that with your voice, but I'll try. Maybe I should do a GoPro like Ossie's face, Francis Bourgeois. I'm cycling into work and singing in the style of an opera singer today.

That's what I'll be doing tomorrow. And finally, this is a great teacher. Any excuse to shout about how great teachers can be. KJ Brown on TikTok has reworded Sabrina Carpenter's espresso to make it fit into the eight times table. I count in eight.

Shall we all try and do it? Shall we try and do a quick maths lesson?

Count us in, Amy. Ready? I count in eights because I'm so clever. These multiples, let's count together. One times eight is eight and two. Why is no one else singing? I am. Three times eight is 16. Three times eight is 24. Do, do, do, do, do, do.

Oh, you blew that. I was singing. KJ Brown would be unhappy with the class for that. Time now for a quiz. Here's Ollie. Morning, Greg. You all right? Very good. Thank you. Nice to have you on. Welcome to yesterday's quiz. A team of firefighters this week. Exciting.

They are from the Devon and Somerset Fire Service. Oli, welcome to The Breakfast Show. Can I just ask a big question first up? What's the engine? Is it a DAF? Is it a Volvo? What is it? What are we dealing with? Yes, it's a Volvo. Come on.

Talk me through it, because I've said a few times before, I am completely obsessed with fire engines, have been since I was a boy. So go on then, tell us some of the features. Yeah, so we've got two appliances on station. So we've got the main Volvo maximum response pump. And then we've also got a smaller one. But the main one is basically equipped for anything. So we've got ladders on it.

We've got tools for cutting open cars, hose reel jets to battle fires, hose in general, and also other little sort of smaller items, some things you wouldn't even think that they're there, such as RSPCA resuscitation kits. Oh, okay. That's good. Because you've got to be ready for anything. Because if people are confused in an emergency, they just go, oh.

I think just call the fire brigade I think just get them out yeah so you must have all sorts of stuff Oli how long have you been a firefighter for yeah so I've been doing it for three years now just over three years and you started when you were 18 didn't you yeah yeah so probably when I was 17 and a half and then joined as soon as I turned 18 nice and do you love it

Yeah, best thing I've ever done. So we've got a good team this week of firefighters. You today, Dylan tomorrow, Ed on Wednesday and Tom on Thursday. You're also, you're so busy, Oli. You're not just doing that. You're training for something else as well, aren't you?

Yes, I'm doing a degree apprenticeship in construction management. So I'll do that Monday to Friday and then overnight and at the weekend I'll do the fire service as uncle. What a hero. Oli, thanks for being on today. We're going to do yesterday's quiz. So do you get to listen quite often then? Are you a keen quizzer of yesterday's quiz? Yes, I always...

Tune in in the mornings before I get into work. So yeah, I get to listen to about an hour of the show. Well, that's an hour's decent. And how do you normally do on the quiz? How do you think you're going to do today? Well, it's easier answering it when listening to it. So I'm hoping that I'll do it okay. But we'll have to see. Are you dressed as a firefighter while doing the quiz? Unfortunately not. No, so you're not sitting in the maximum response pump.

No. No. OK. I just wanted a visual, really, of where you were. All right, here we go then with 90 seconds on the clock. Do we have some dingers? Yes, we do. Just set the total for today then, Ollie. Here we go with question number one. The Super Bowl happened last night, but give me your best impression of a superb owl. I don't know if it sounded superb. I'll give you one more go. I'll start the clock when the owl's finished, but I think maybe a bit more superb, the owl, please.

Very good. Now we're off. Another point, please. A complete unknown was top of the UK box office, but which famous Timothy stars in that film? Charlton? No, Chalamet. Prince Harry photobombed a picture of Nelly Furtado and his wife, but who is he married to? Prince Harry. Prince Harry married his Meghan Markle. Oh, he knew it. I'm going to give you the point because you're a firefighter. So Chris Hoy brought out the match ball in the Six Nations match between Scotland and which other nation yesterday?

Ireland. It was Ireland. Yesterday was Sunday. Name something I'd use to keep the sun out of my eyes. Sunglasses. Yes. Yesterday was a new moon. What part of your body do you use to moon people with? Your bottom. Yes, your bottom is correct. Simone Biles revealed that she hasn't unpacked her bag from the 2024 Olympics. But where were the 2024 Olympics held? Paris. Yes. Imagine the stench of that kit. It was National Pizza Day. Name any pizza topping.

Pepperoni. Yes, Ed Sheeran got in trouble with the police in India for what? Busking or a parking fine? Busking. It was busking. Man City played Leicester City in the Women's FA Cup, but who won?

Man City. They did. Scientists revealed that they had cracked teleportation with a supercomputer. But if I teleport myself to Big Weekend this year, what city would I arrive in? Liverpool. Correct! The world's biggest traffic jam was reported in a city in India. But how long is it? Was it 30 kilometres or 300 kilometres? 30 kilometres. It was 300! Imagine trying to get the pump through that. What time was it this time yesterday?

7.20. It was. Good look at the phone there. And it was reported that Line of Duty could be returning for season seven. But what is the show about? Is it about police officers or is it about firefighters? Police officers. Correct. There needs to be a new drama about the fire service, I think. There hasn't been one for years. Good quiz today. Good quiz. It was quite tricky at times today, wasn't it, Ollie? But I think you kept your cool and you got 13 points.

Well, respectable. Are you happy with that? Yeah. You don't sound that happy. I feel like I might give you an extra point for being a hero. How about that? Thank you. That's the firefighter extra point that all the firefighters are going to get, so he's going to bring all the scores up. Amy, are you worried about that? He gave him a mega Markle point as well for being a firefighter.

Yeah, but you eventually, you knew it was Meghan Markle, didn't you? We sort of confused you with Nelly Furtado and stuff. So we're going to go easy on you because you've got a busy week of fighting fires ahead. And it's Monday. So, Oli, thanks for being on. And we'll catch up with you later in the week. Looking forward to the rest of the team, OK? Cheers, Greg. Have a good one, Bob. And at 7.40 today, a public service announcement. We need to talk about puddles and people are still driving through them.

We might need to do a public service announcement, guys. I've seen... These are some of my favourite videos, by the way. So I'm conflicted. I want you to stop because it's costing you thousands of pounds in repairs, but also I love them. I'm sad about this guy. There's a guy on TikTok who had a nightmare with his Sainsbury's delivery van over the weekend. Look at that.

I didn't think it was that deep. Because right there, it's not that deep. They never realise. People never realise. They go, I thought it was shallow as it was. Yeah, that's how a puddle's created. The puddle is deeper in the middle, isn't it? Obviously. They go, well, there's the rover sort of going down and then it goes up at the end. That's called a dip. And think about...

Anyway, this poor guy has made his deliveries. He backed himself to drive through the van. This is the thing, the confidence of people who are driving vans. I've seen videos of buses going through because people seem to think that the bigger the vehicle, oh, it's a big lorry. I've seen bin lorries going through there.

It's not. It's going to ruin your day. It was very, very deep anyway. The engine's gone. Like, the engine's been flooded. I ain't getting that out. That is stuck in there. Yeah, this is... OK, let's do a public service announcement. Stop driving your car in puddles! That's the end of the message. That's the end of it. That's the end of the public service announcement. There are some ways to do this. If you're going to go through it, if you have to...

You've got to do it very, very slowly. If it's too deep, then... We're going to get nerdy here. If it's too deep, the water will go into the air intake and you will create something called hydro-lock. And you don't want a hydro-lock, OK? That means that water can enter the combustion chambers if you want to get technical. And then the pistons, the pistons can't complete their compression to make your car go. That's basically it.

And you could end up fracturing your crankshaft. And believe you me, that's painful. Okay? So we don't want you to fracture your crankshaft or anything like that. As I said, I am so conflicted though because as much as I don't want you to get hydro-lock, I do want to see these videos because they are amazing. Another thing you can do, of course, is you can reverse through because the air intake is usually at the front of the vehicle. Okay? Okay.

Is anyone still listening? Are you bored by Hydra Lockjack? Nerd. We're good, OK. Let's continue on. Oh, actually, finally, we did try and find the tallest mum. Usually I have a little bit of chit-chat with the callers before they go on the radio, but I've deliberately kept my powder dry for this because we've got a new game. The tallest mum... Don't laugh at that theme tune because that's basically how they do The Wheel. It's just this sort of music and they go... The Wheel, The Wheel, da-da-da-da-da. The Wheel...

Megan in Cambridge says this game should be called Caught Short. Very good. OK, let's do it again. Ready? Caught Short! Welcome to Caught Short. We have a series of mums lined up on the phone. I don't even know how many mums we're going to get through here. I've not said hello to any of them. I don't know their names. It's dehumanising, but I'm going to be referring to them as Mum 1, Mum 2 and so on. Are you doing this game because February is always the shortest month?

Very good, nice one. Steven Chester. He says, "That Steven Chester attempting humour." I think you did it very well. It is the shortest month. Let's find the tallest mum. Let's go. Let's make it tense. Here we go. Is that too tense? I don't know. We're trying it out. This is the pilot episode. Mum one, good morning. Strong start, isn't it? Mum one seems to have disappeared. Rule one of the game, make sure the mums are on the phone.

Let's start with the next line that's lit up. You're now mum one. Hello. Hello, Greg. Hello. What's your name, please? My name is Megan. Megan. Okay. And how tall are you, Megan? Oh, Greg, would you like that in centimetres or feet? Both. I'm 181 centimetres, which is 5 foot 11 inches point 2, I think.

So what's going to happen is there's another mum on the phone. Do I stick with you or do I think we can get taller? Can we get taller than a 5'11"? Surely, surely there's a taller one. I'm going to spin again. Nice to talk to you, Megan. Thank you. Thank you. Mum two. Hello. What's your name? Olivia. Olivia, are you taller than 5'11"? 1.81 centimetres.

What are you? Oh, my God. Oh, I don't know if I can go again. Do I go again? Can we get taller than a 6'3"? Great height. A great high, Olivia. Brilliant height.

I know we have a similar, you and I have a similar vantage point. I'm just, I'm a tiny bit, I'm a 6'4", but the world looks great from up here, doesn't it? Yes, it really does. You can help a lot of people with things on high shelves. Yeah, and you feel like you can make people's day. Also, you know, bump your head lots, that makes people laugh as well. So it's not just, it's not all good things, but you know. I give a really good hug.

Yes. The thing is, we were just talking about hugging small people. And Stevie, who works at Radio 1, and she's, I reckon, she's very short. But she sort of basically nuzzles or nestles into my belly button when I give her a hug. But she's like enveloped by me. Okay, do I go? We're doing small talk here and it's because I'm stalling because I want to... Do I go again? No.

I'm going again. I'm sorry, Olivia. I just want to see what else we've got. I'm sorry. I might regret this. Mum three. Hello? Morning, Gregory. Good morning. What's your name? My name is Anne-Marie. Anne-Marie. Not that one, no? Not the pop star? No, sadly not. Anne-Marie, how tall are you? I don't think you want to know, Gregory. Oh, no. I am four foot ten.

Oh, God. Four foot ten. I am. Oh. All good things come in small packages, Greg. Yeah, I'm sorry to sound disappointed chatting to you, but I completely blew it there. I got carried away. We weren't going to find taller than... Is there another one? Have we got another mum there? There's only three mums.

Where did the other mum go? How tall was the other one? Five foot ten. Oh, for God's sake. I'm sorry, Olivia. I should have stuck with a six three. Do you know what, though? I wonder whether... And by the way, thanks, Anne-Marie. Thanks for being on.

You're welcome. But you're not mega or massive, I'm afraid, so I'm fading you down. Now, do you reckon we can find a taller mum than you listening right now, Olivia? There must be. Is there a... There must be someone taller than six foot three. There's also a mum. Okay.

Let's try it. 03700100100. Someone's just texting Anne-Marie saying 4 for 10's a trip hazard. Which is incredibly rude and I will defend your honour while also laughing because it's kind of true. Have a great day, Anne-Marie. Thank you. Megan, thank you. And Olivia, thank you.

Thank you. The search continues. And there you go. That is the end of today's Breakfast Show podcast. Thanks for listening. I'll be back tomorrow with actual Captain America. Anthony Mackie's going to be on The Breakfast Show. See ya.
