Further details

Catherine Bohart, Irish stand-up comedian, co-host of the podcasts You'll Do and Trusty Hogs, and creator of the online new-material comedy show Gigless, donates a perfectly soft boiled egg.

Bruce Dickinson, the singer of heavy metal band Iron Maiden, professional pilot, former BBC 6 Music host, and an honorary citizen of Sarajevo, provides two copies of the Bible: one belonging to his great uncle when he was based in Malta during the war, and another given to him a RAF padre who Bruce flew, which had several connections.

Elizabeth Day, broadcaster, author, host of the podcast How To Fail, Radio 4's Open Book and the Sky Arts Book Club, gives a red apple and a discarded hair extension. She gives it in order to represent reality TV show The Real Housewives Of New York, one of the few show to regularly feature women aged 50 and above.
