Hour 1
- James is flabbergasted that the RSPCA has spent £330 000 prosecuting foxhunters in David Cameron's constituency (as The Guardian would like us to refer to it) and secured a prosecution that resulted in a £6800 fine plus costs.
- James wants people who think this was money well spent when there are animals that could have done with the money.
- As usual, "animal lovers" call in to claim that this is a victory and they'll up their contributions to RSPCA to help their coffers.
Hour 2
- Wind turbines. James finds them aesthetically pleasing and would like people who object to them to call in and explain their objections.
- Midway though the hour it emerges that UKIP is opposed to the idea because Europe told us to do it.
- People with big brains call in to essentially say that it's still an emerging technology that should be explored, but commensurately. (At least that's what I understood. These were very learnered people with posh accents)
Hour 3
- The National Literary Trust has revealed that 32.9% of today's dads don't give their kids reading encouragement.
- James covers the show's hardy perennial and re-emphasises the importance of books and invites calls from former children and parents.
- James announces that Mystery Hour will take place tomorrow instead of Thursday as usual.
