Transcript

00:00I was thinking about it last night and thought it would be Friday, then again, Saturday, Sunday, then

00:04we'll be sat at home. We will. I tell you who will be here on Monday morning, though.

00:08Gavin and Stacey, the entire cast, looking after you. Morning, Rich Jackson.

00:12Morning.

00:13Morning, Tina Zahili.

00:14Morning, Zoe.

00:15Mike is in for a one-day special as well, so the whole crew back together. Morning,

00:20Prod Squad. Love you. We've had some tears already. We don't quite know what to do with

00:26ourselves this morning, do we? I've come in and I suddenly can't remember how to press

00:29the buttons. I wasn't sure which chair to sit in. Yes, it's sort of like we're all pretending

00:34that we're going to be okay and that the emotion isn't getting to us, but it's definitely getting

00:38to us, isn't it? So hold tight. We'll get through this together. Richie, yesterday,

00:42so many amazing comments. Oh, it was so lovely. About you on the socials. That made me blub

00:47my eyes out. I know. Do you know what? It's funny because on the way in this morning,

00:50I was talking to my taxi driver because he was like, oh, it's big day today. I was like,

00:52I actually feel fine. I'm really chilled. I'm okay. And then I got in and hugged you

00:57and hugged Patrick. And I was like, oh, I know. I've already had a little cry on Patrick. Yes.

01:02Patrick, thank you so much for receiving tears. But we're going to have loads of fun today.

01:07We are playing some of my favourite records, both Christmassy ones and non-Christmassy ones.

01:13We'll get through as many messages from our wonderful listeners as we can. Send us your

01:18five word weekends as always. Christmas with my girls Sunday. That's Cher. And she says,

01:25have a lovely show. Cher, actual Cher has texted into the show. I always knew she was a fan.

01:31Obviously. Oh, bless her. Thank you, Oti Mabuse,

01:35for your gorgeous message this morning as well. That made me cry too.
