The builders are at the studio doors and the drills are on full blast, with the lads gazing out at the work underway.We somehow start off with a chat on history's most grisly serial killers and their skin lamps, and Darren shows he's not entirely against the idea of mannequin love. Joe tries to sabotage some essential infrastructure work outside his house and we end up needing the liberal use of bleeps to cover up his wild accusations. Eoin leaves Darren deeply wounded as he accuses him of having gone one dimensional. He also let Darren and Joe go to the official Stall It photoshoot unsupervised and now realises this was potentially a major mistake. We discover, to nobody's surprise, that Joe is a big fan of the enhanced games and wants to see more drugs in sport - but he draws the line at robot racing. And amidst the conversation about athletic performance Joe's marathon record is caught in the crossfire. Send all of your questions and comments to stallit@goloudnow.com
