You beat me to the response -- I should have checked the replies before I started Googling. :)

Indeed, episode 482. Is this the exchange?

LS: Fillings, well all sorts of things in this world have fillings. Biscuits for example, jammy dodgers have a filling which seems to be some kind of sticky red conserve. I can only...

BUZZ

NP: Paul Merton challenged.

PM: It's jam!

NP: Jam can also be called a conserve.

LS: I was...

PM: She wasn't sure what it was.

LS: I was conserving the word jam for a later moment.

PM: Ah!

NP: I, I don't think it was, I mean...

PM: No, I thought Linda was confused as to what it was.

NP: No, no, no, no, no, I think...

LS: No that's Nicholas, he's confused as to where we are!

NP: Yes! I don't think so! The ah Paul, a keen challenge but it was incorrect, so Linda, another point to you, you keep the subject, 51 seconds still available on fillings starting now.

LS: I think it must be some kind of sports jam, because it seems to be about 30 percent lighter...

BUZZ

NP: Paul challenged.

PM: No, it's just jam. Just jam.

LS: Well I beg to differ, I think it's much stretchier than your normal jam.

PM: No, no, no...

LS: I don't think a normal jam has the give of jammy dodger jam.

PM: I think you'll find it's jam that's just been sitting on the shelf for a long time.

NP: Yes.

PM: The stretchability that you see is attributed to longevity of the jam.

LS: I think Paul, you have a lot to learn about jam technology.

NP: I know!

PM: Do you know that jam is also an acronym for Just A Minute?

APPLAUSE FROM THE AUDIENCE

PM: Thank you!

BUZZ

LS: Deviation from the subject of jam!

NP: Devi, listen, you're not even talking in the, on the subject! You've been having a cooking talk and so forth! Paul the audience enjoyed your interruption but it wasn't a correct challenge. We give you a bonus point because of the response you received. Linda you still have the subject, you've got a point because you were interrupted. Forty-seven seconds available for fillings starting now.

Hi Miriam. I listened to this one again just yesterday. The subject was "Fillings" and it was episode 482, (6 January 2003).

I miss Linda. Probably the funniest off-the-cuff remark ever, from episode 582 (and thank-you Dean for the transcript):

LS: Lewis Carroll, while undoubtedly a fine writer, also had a strange affiliation with young girls which these days would probably have him...

BUZZ

NP: Oh! Clement challenged.

CF: I thought they were boys. No, that's JM Barrie!

LS: Well, well Clement, well Clement, you're going to have to change that entry in your I Spy Book Of Victorian Paedophiles, aren't you!

LOUD LAUGHTER FROM GN, LS AND THE AUDIENCE
