Emma Willis and Jay's Virtual Quiz
Emma Willis, the hugely successful presenter, gives Zoe the latest news on the upcoming series of The Celebrity Circle on Channel 4 and we find out what's new with The Voice UK.
Emma Willis, the hugely successful TV presenter, chats to Zoe about the latest series of The Voice UK and looks ahead to the brand new season of The Celebrity Circle on Channel 4. The Circle, first debuted in September 2018 and bills itself as a game based around social media, with the concept that "anyone can be anyone in The Circle". Players compete for popularity – and cash – via a specially-designed social media platform called The Circle. Throughout the show, contestants live in the same apartment building but are never allowed to meet. The name of the game is to become the most popular player, and while most of them know who they are chatting to, a few are hiding behind fake profiles – aka ‘catfishing’ other players. For the first time ever, a group of celebrities move into the apartment block and compete to be crowned The Circle’s most popular celebrity player. While some of the celebrities are playing as themselves in the game, others are catfishing as another celebrity identity altogether, hoping to convince the other players that they are the real deal. The celebrity series is in aid of Stand Up To Cancer.
Jay Flynn returns with another round of his Virtual Radio Quiz where he tests the team on their general knowledge to see who comes out on top.
Along with Adam Porter on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, she and the team have the best start to your morning. With celeb guests, quizzes, headlines, tunes chosen by listeners, and more music that you can shake a glitterball at!
There's also a daily Pause For Thought and listeners on the line, as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Pause For Thought
My lad, Arthur went back to the classroom this week, tested, masked and standing two metres away, he was glad to beÌýwith anyone other than his parents.ÌýÌýMind you, he’s always had a bit of a habit of avoiding our company because when he was really little, my boy liked to wander off. From campsites, to department stores, we seemed to constantly be shouting ‘Arthur! Arthur! Has anyone seen Arthur!’ That gut wrenching feeling of only taking your eyes off them for a minute and suddenly they aren’t there anymore. Perhaps you know it too. We taught him early on to stand still, wait and shout ‘I’m here!’ as loud as he could until we eventually found him. We also tried tying a helium balloon to his dungarees and dressing him in fancy dress, so while the question, ‘Has anyone seen a 3 year-old with brown hair?’ got bemused shrugs from passers-by, we discovered ‘Has anyone seen a short Buzz Lightyear?’ much more effective.Ìý

In the gospel of Luke, Jesus tells the story of a lost sheep. A shepherd with a flock of a 100 discovers one missing and leaves the 99 to hunt out the one. Risking it all to ensure the safety of the loved, but lost lamb. Now, I reckon weÌýall find ourselves feeling like we’re lost from time to time, and I’m no exception, that moment when before I really know how it happened, the hand I thought I was so tightly holding has suddenly slipped from my grasp and find myself frightened and alone, wondering what to do next.
Ìý
But just like we told our Arthur all those years ago, I know if I stand still and call out for help, someone will hear and come and look for me, because the flock is incomplete without me in it.
Ìý
Our Arthur was glad to be back in school and I’m pleased to say he came home safe, and you’ll be thrilled to know we didn’t even have to dress him up as Buzz Lightyear or tie a balloon to his dungarees, well, Zoe he is seventeen, after all.Ìý
