Tom asked: If a musical comedian met a Star Wars actress wearing a knitted sweater, and their restaurant meal cost more than 拢39 but less than 拢50, what kind of fish did they order?
The Star Wars actress we had in mind was Carrie Fisher, the musical comedian Bill Bailey, and the knitted sweaters might be Fair Isle sweaters. If you got this far, you may have seen a pattern involving shipping forecast areas around the UK.
So their restaurant bill would be in the Forties - and the most likely fish for them to order would therefore have been Sole.
There'll be another teaser at the end of today's broadcast.
