The radio in the loo at Radio 2 …
I’m sitting in the Radio 2 green-room, waiting to go on Vine (though the room isn’t green and Clive Anderson’s presenting).
When you come up in the lift, instead of music, it has the station playing; yet I was rather surprised to note that in the toilet nearest the studio, Radio 2 is pumping out there too. Obviously a great boon to the presenters who need a quick ‘comfort break’, so when a song’s playing they know how long they’ve got left.

Have you been Plevined? I ask that question in the almost certain knowledge that most people reading this won’t have a clue what I’m on about.
