Before DMs and disappearing voice notes, there was the home phone — a portal to awkward crushes, stammering introductions, and having to ask someone’s mum if your Year 6 boyfriend was home.
This week, we’re dialing back to:
The horror of calling your primary school sweetheart’s house and getting Dad instead,
Maddie’s brief and legendary relationship with Nick — her mysterious Year 6 boyfriend we’re meeting for the first time,
And Danny’s early misadventures on a dating phone line... involving a fake profile, his sister, and a very kinky adult caller he still hasn’t forgotten.
It’s all here: cringe, chaos, and a heavy dose of 2000s landline-era romance.
