The Rest's Entertainment is presented by Octopus Energy. Now, can I tell you something cool that Octopus Energy do if you ring them and you have to be put on hold? Because they know who you are. They know your birthday. The hold music is the best selling single from the year that you were 14. That's quite cool, isn't it? Yes. I love this. Exactly. I've looked into it for you. Do you want to know the best selling single in the year that you turn 14? So this would be your hold music on Octopus Energy. It is Yaz the only way is up. What do we think to that? Well, Yaz and the plastic population. Yes, and the plastic population. Oh, of course. Do you know what? I sometimes think the plastic population do not get their due. They don't get there. They don't get their credit today. You know, I need to ring it to Octopus now and just listen to it.

Yeah, you'll be saying and the best-selling single in the year that you were 14 Richard. It's Cumberton Gap by Lonnie Donegan.

This episode is brought to you by Bumble. Now, an old dating profile doesn't go off, it gets stale.

1:26.5

Exactly. It just sits there slowly aging and getting more dry, a bit like a loaf of bread left out on the side,
