DJ Asif has dragged Barry out of his room to act as on air 'posse' in his Lake Vista Care Home radio show. 

But can Barry and Asif hold it together in the cupboard next to the vending machine, and make the kind of radio magic which will propel Asif all the way to a photocopying placement with Chris Evans?
