Time for the first Half-Time Hooter of the Week, plus more shameful Closed Door Cabaret tales, more Morten Harket's Gap in the Market and more brilliant music.

It's Wednesday which means it is time for the first Half-Time Hooter of the week. The Best Time of the Day Show has more embarassing Closed Door Cabaret tales; you think you are alone and the inner performer unleashes itself...then you realise you were being watched the whole time. Morten Harket's Gap in the Market continues with more suggestions including David Schwimmer's Garden Trimmers and Mr. Acker Bilk's Flavoured Milks. The Wrong End of the Diction Stick is poking at many of us who have been using words incorrectly and insisting we were right. Plus, another track from Album of the Week from Sade, Record of the Week from Robbie Williams, Lester's Library selections from Albert Lee & Hogans Heroes and Coco Montoya, and classic Rolling Stones from the Listener's Library.
