| 0:04.8 | Hello, well, my desire to stage a Greg James style interaction with a newscast listeners |
| 0:13.6 | mum on public transport has had mixed results. We got an email from Anya who said, |
| 0:19.6 | I live in the west end of Glasgow, so spent a lot of November hoping I would spot you |
| 0:24.0 | or one of your powers at the BBC as I walked to work at Glasgow Uni, because of course |
| 0:28.7 | cop was happening in Glasgow at the time. Sadly, I didn't bump into you, but I was so excited |
