The blue phone is set against a pale yellow pastel background. Upon first glance, one might miss the numbers, but upon closer inspection, the phone's dial displays the unusual sequence of numbers as '1314567890' instead of the usual string of 1 to 0. Here's what the fans had to say:
"single on 31st jan??" one fan said.
