I'm pretty sure Roger sings lead on Apples and oranges. For one thing it sounds like Roger in his early incarnation (before he started screaming like from the wall on) and for another he is shown singing the song on the promo video.

Nope, that's Syd too. Roger mimed it in the video because Syd was stoned and apparently in a playful mood. Whenever they rehearsed it, he'd lipsync it perfectly, but when the cameras rolled, he'd just stop moving and stare into space. Eventually, Roger had to step in.

It was actually 'See Emily Play' that Roger had to mime to for that American TV show. I think he's talking about the Belgian TV version of 'Apples and Oranges', which was filmed after Syd had left the band.
