Episode Synopsis

This week, Tommy, Hayley, and Duncan take a trip down memory lane – quite literally – as they share the journeys, feelings, and rituals that defined their school days. From lollipop ladies and dangerous subways, to loud singalongs on the 726 bus, each memory paints a vivid picture of growing up. The conversation wanders into: School journeys – walking routes, long bus rides, and the feelings of dread vs. freedom Last days of term – traditions, parties, and the joy of six weeks stretching ahead Fancy dress adventures – from penguin-like mermaids to toga parties gone wrong TV nostalgia – The Avengers, The Saint, and why Emma Peel’s name really stuck The magic of newspapers – obituaries, local news gems, and the Sunday Times ritual Coach trips and turkey-and-tinsel holidays – still alive and well (and full of over-70s) Plus, Tommy shares a cheeky urban myth involving Little Red Riding Hood, a wolf costume, and a case of mistaken identity at a party. It’s an episode full of stories, nostalgia, and laughter, where the everyday details of the past suddenly feel extraordinary.
