Guest Selina Scott was quoted in the Daily Mirror (22nd June 1982) as saying that she'd previously turned down two prior invitations to appear on the show due to other commitments. "There was also the thought that I'm not a TV personality. I just do a job. But when Terry asked again I realised that I couldn't keep saying no."
Scott returned as a guest in Episode #5.6 (1985), and that same year became the first person to provide holiday cover for Terry when Wogan transitioned to a year-round show, starting with Episode #5.99 (1985).
