The show where the phones failed was Tuesday night 11th October 2005........

The discussion about the FM frequency and the old days with the caller was
around 110-114 minutes into the clip.

I knew about the 261 as the early car stickers used to have that on, but
they hardly ever publicised the 97.something FM frequency and that's why
I've forgotten it!

The old 261 and 97 FM jingles played are at 119 mins 30 seconds.

The one mentioning FM goes "Piccadilly Summertime Stereo 97" - James then
comments about how it was actually 97.3 - which I don't think was true.

You have to enter a three letter code and then wait for the download button
to light up, and then you can download the 30MB file of the programme from
that night.
