Minutes into Peter’s appearance on the show, after listening to Music for a Sushi Restaurant by Harry Styles, Zoe commented on the funnyman’s outfit. “Peter has come in today really brilliantly dressed in black with a little orange thread round,” Zoe began. “What are you on about? Think you’ve had a refresher,” Peter said in a jokey reference to the famous sweet.“I know, I need a refresher,” Zoe replied, before continuing: “You’ve got orange around you and you’re matching our Radio 2 orange branding. It’s a lovely look…”Scoffing, Peter interrupted again saying: “I’m just wearing a b****y…“Oh, sorry - I swore!” he declared, to which Zoe replied: “Did you?”“I apologise, Britain, for saying that word: b****y,” Peter continued cheekily.“Yes I’m so sorry - wait, you said it again!” Zoe exclaimed in realisation. “I know, but I could’ve said it in the context of blood,” Peter explained.“Yes, you could have done…” Zoe agreed bemusedly. “So there’s my excuse on that one,” Peter continued.
