    They also listen to LBC judging by the number of black cab drivers that phone up.

    Erm, obvious question here - do they announce their ethnicity before they speak on this show or something?

    Just in case your not taking the pi55. Drivers of Black Cabs and not "Cab Drivers" who are black. And they often start there conversations with "I'm a black cab driver, right, and...." they'll phone up about almost anything, but it's normally mini cabs that they get most animated about.
