In this episode, the gang takes a nostalgic stroll down memory lane, exploring the quirks of old-school technology, eccentric TV personalities, and the comfort of familiar films. From blinking answer phones to telephone seats in hallways, and from the delights of "Two Fat Ladies" to classic feel-good movies, we cover it all. Plus, we dive into the peculiar joys of bingo, VHS discoveries, and the autobiographies (and biographies) that capture our imagination—or frustrate us.

Eccentric TV Personalities: Celebrating legendary presenters like Keith Floyd, David Bellamy, and the iconic Two Fat Ladies, Jennifer Patterson and Clarissa Dixon Wright.

Missed & Overrated Films: Hayley confesses she's never seen blockbusters like Titanic or Jurassic Park, while Tommy and Duncan debate cinematic classics.
