However...
In my ongoing quest to work out why they wrote this bit, I looked it up.
Found a Reddit thread from 2010 where a couple of people remember it as "chocolate cake"
So that version did exist.
I wonder whether, in real life, it was something Reece & Steve had argued about?
I also wondered - in a darker moment - whether it triggered Steve because it reminded him of a particular aspect of their relationship he had found abhorrent for the last nine years?
💩

:O at both your points.

Well. Sorry, but that ending was not worth the half an hour of shit gameshow preceding it, even if there was foreshadowing with the Matilda question. This is the first time I can genuinely say I was bored for the majority of the episode.

I totally agree. I hate those sorry of daytime quiz shows so it was a real chore to sit through it.

Incidentally, they used the milk... rhyme in a LOG stage show, so perhaps it is something they've argued about previously. Cake is clearly a poetic travesty.
