Episode Synopsis
RTBWTV January 26th 2025 - Spin offs
A bracing New Year plunge into the Golden Age of British Television (1956 and the Suez Crisis to 1974 and the three day week). Guy Morgan and David Newell take some threads from classic television of the era and spin them off to explore how one TV series can give birth to another - no matter how tenuous the connection.
What is the difference between a spin off and a franchise?
Whose great nephew continued the family crimefighting tradition?
Which series "jumped the shark" from Episode 1?
And which one causes Dave physical pain to mention?
