Wonderful, undefinable, rambling, often wrong, always nice … imagine a giant junk shop where every item on every shelf triggers shuddering memories of the lovely, English past. Mike and Paul put them there, you fool!
I accidentally stumbled into this Podcast after enjoying the BBC Archive then searching for old TV, and absolutely adore it.
