In Episode 2, 'Storm' the phone in is Sports- ""Sport! Sports! Sporting things! This country loves sport more than-more than...well more than a country who doesn't care for them all that much. Everyone will have their own sporting memories- from tossing the ol' inflated bladder around in the mud, to getting friction burns on the knees from sliding in and out of 4th base, to slapshotting a biscuit in the basket while checking from behind- we've all been there. But what is the best sport, the sport of sports, the sport all sports aspire to be? We'd love to hear from all you sports fans, those obsessives, devoted beyond reason. Let us know what it is that you adore about these pastimes played by millionaires; these sports that rule your life like some powerful voodoo, administered from afar. Same number as always"
