Julian Clary, who had worked with Paul before*, does some games with him, including a priceless moment when Paul hesitates during Alphabet, clearly trying not to say "Queen" or "Queer," when we're all thinking it.  (You can hear Clive chuckling.)  Paul also devotes some of the second half of the episode to ruthlessly teasing a still infatuated if now understandably annoyed Josie.  Not only does he imply she's flat-chested in Props (she gets revenge on their next round), but his Expert Translation of her Swedish about Volvos opens with the question "Have you ever had sex with a horse?" and stays in that gutter.  Even during Gospel, he mocks her dancing, but then she looks very amused by his awful singing.  Note that, as a cab driver reading the closing credits, he says, "I've been married to three of them," and he was then newly married to his first of three wives, Caroline Quentin, who would appear on WLIIA later, but not with Paul.

No Mike/Paul, but Mike and Josie again play a married couple, in FATS.

*In fact, Paul's introduction on the Christmas episode says he's "responsible for some of Julian Clary's stickier moments," a reference to Julian's 1989-90 programme Sticky Moments, which Paul co-created.
