Summary

| 0:04.9 | Now Jamie has been back in touch after his frankly uncalled for attack on our, um, out-of-date |
| 0:12.4 | titles. He said he feels guilty. |
| 0:16.4 | I am Mary Cast, it's Jamie from Shropshire here again. He was so nice about my last contribution |
| 0:22.1 | that I had to tell you I'm feeling a bit bad about it now. I felt really sorry for |

| 1:15.8 | Bye. |
| 1:16.8 | Oh God, don't you just love it when people think they're the editor of the programme and |
| 1:21.6 | they're taking charge. This is not a democracy. This is a dictatorship. We'll decide what |
| 1:26.6 | goes in the titles. Actually, we've been promised new titles and when we get them, you'll |
