Roman Kemp ‘calls out' Olly Murs after awkward on-stage moment
The One Show star was reflecting on a recent appearance alongside Olly Murs after the pair competed in a celebrity darts tournament in London The One Show's Roman Kemp has called out Olly Murs after the pair recently appeared together on stage in front of thousands of fans. Earlier this month, celebrities were paired up with darts pros as they went head-to-head to see who would come out on top in a game of darts at the Hyde Park Darts Championship. The new competition, created by the PDC (Professional Darts Corporation), saw Roman join fellow celebs including Olly Murs, Dion Dublin, and Joe Swash, who were each partnered with a darts pro such as Luke Littler and Luke Humphries. Reflecting on the eagerly fought competition during a recent episode of his You About? podcast with Tom Grennan, Roman recalled his impressive display, throwing two "triple 20s." After narrowly missing out on the top spot—making it all the way to the finals—the radio host shared how Joe Swash and his partner, Fallon Sherrock, came out as deserved winners. Despite that, he revealed that the celebs had initially been lulled into a false sense of security by Joe before he went on to win the competition: "He kind of hustled us a little bit, because in the little area beforehand, we were all just practicing and he was c**p." However, he was less than impressed with how prepared one of his fellow celebrities was for the event, saying: "I'm going to call Olly out here. He turned up with his own shirt that had his name on it, all over it." He added: "Then his own darts—weighted darts—that had his name on them." But despite coming fully prepared for the occasion, Roman noted that the singer "went out first," adding, "So it was like, Olly's got to step that up." Away from trying his hand at darts, Roman has been a prominent figure in broadcasting in recent years. After originally co-hosting the Capital Breakfast show, last year he swapped radio for TV when he began co-hosting several programmes, including The One Show. Alongside his slew of hosting roles, many will also know him for his third-place finish on I'm A Celeb in 2019, as well as playing alongside fellow celebrities for England in Soccer Aid earlier this year. Roman has also used his platform to explore issues surrounding mental health, including the release of his BBC series Roman Kemp: Our Silent Emergency, which launched in 2021. He is also set to launch a new country-wide mental health initiative next month.

Sian Welby's 'uncontrollable tiredness' caused by common car feature
Experts have claimed that people should avoid leaving this feature on for more than 20 minutes, as it could lead to drowsiness Sian Welby thought something might have been wrong when she came down with 'uncontrollable tiredness' whilst driving. But she never expected her car to be the culprit. Offering advice to "anyone who drives", Sian shared her discovery with listeners to the Capital Breakfast radio show she hosts alongside Jordan North and Chris Stark. The 38-year-old star said it was only a chance scroll on TikTok that helped her pinpoint the problem that was instantly solved by disabling the feature most modern cars have. In a clip to her Instagram feed with its 274,000 followers, Sian wrote: "We had lorry drivers and taxi drivers texting in saying the button had been on in their cab the whole time and they never noticed it! So dangerous and most of us don't know about it!" She told her co-hosts that she "thought she had a bit of an issue" with car journeys that lasted over 30 minutes, especially if they involved a motorway. She said: "I didn't know if it was sort of the rhythmic motion of the car on motorways or the mundane view you've got of constant tarmac, but it would 'send me to sleep' - and I'm talking uncontrollable tiredness. "I started thinking 'what is wrong with me?'. Even if I had a good night's sleep, I'd be pinning my eyes open on these long journeys." The radio host, who also occasionally presents ITV's This Morning, mentioned how it's often impossible to drive with windows down on a motorway without having a "horrendous" noise in your ear. The most obvious solution for a cool and fresh breeze is the air conditioner (if your car has it). Sian added that a random scroll on TikTok brought her to a video which claimed watching it "could save your life". She initially thought it was going to be "a load of nonsense" but it ended up giving her the solution to all her problems on the road. She continued: "When you've got air conditioning in your car, you've got two buttons, and there's one that shows a car with arrows—the recirculation button. A lot of us were told that it would save energy if you put that on because it recycles the air inside your car and it cools down quicker - that's true. "However, apparently, it's not designed to be left on and it can cause drowsiness. So I thought, right, this could be a load of nonsense but if I get into my car and that button is on, it might be why I'm getting tired. "I go in my car and, sure enough, that button is on. I turned it off and I did a three-hour motorway journey the other day - didn't feel tired once." It's not just mind over matter - there's a scientific reason why people should limit how often they use the recirculation button. Studies show that recirculated air inside a car contains decreased oxygen levels and increased carbon dioxide levels. The air conditioning recirculation button should ideally be used in short bursts, typically for no more than 20 minutes. Some vehicles may have a built-in timer that automatically switches off recirculation after a set time to allow fresh air into the cabin.
