Well, at least you'd not be the only one looking silly.
As the webradio is restricted to the uk, did anyone listen to r1 and can tell us if it worked?

The track playing at 1145 was Groove Armada - Get Down. It is a dance track so hard to decide if it went out. I certainly didnt hear "FIA" at all.
However, most intresting was what happened before hand, she was doing the competition with a girl, the usually get to choose two people's clips and then they play a track and they have to answer a question based on the clip. Jo Whiley "Accidentally" selected the Groove Armada, so maybe it was the OTHER clip that was tampered with.

You're on facebook, Mikey?
I missed the whole thing because I was at work. I'm looking forward to seeing what Paul and Violet have to say about today.

Don't worry, I was listening at the time and missed it, couldn't believe it when everyone was saying "there is was" and I was sat there thinking, where, I didn't here it.
