When meeting contestant Natalie Andrews, Bob sings a brief portion of his first single from the 1960s, "I Remember Natalie". Bob would reflect on his own self-stated "shortcomings as a singer", and never had a hit record in the charts.
Bob would end most editions of Wipeout with a joke or philosophical saying, followed by the phrase "wipes me out".
This is one of the editions where he modifies this catchphrase after signing off with a joke about the BBC, claiming "That remark will probably wipe me out".

The canned laughter and dubbed audience reactions for Bob's Wipeout episodes get a different sound in this one, as he starts off with a joke about being in trouble with his wife and asking for sympathy.
Although Bob recorded the episode in an empty studio with just the contestants and the technical crew, a loud "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" from the "audience" can be heard.
