In this special BONUS episode, Eggs is joined by Will Bates: TV and film composer, son of Ralph, and child star of Dear John (in which he played John Lacey's young son Toby).
As well as discussing what it was like to act alongside his Dad and his work as a composer of original score for film and television.

In this belated New Year's bonus episode, we're joined by Gareth and Allen from the British Sitcom History Podcast to discuss the first US attempt at remaking Fawlty Towers way back in 1978 (before the 2nd series of Fawlty Towers had even been made).
Despite boasting the late Betty White as the Sybil character, 'Snaveley' never made it beyond the pilot, and the four of us speculate as to why as well as examine some of the things the pilot did well (it really wasn't all bad!)
This episode was recorded back in December before Betty White sadly passed away. Check out the excellent British Sitcom History podcast on Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

When a visit from a public health official threatens to shut down Filthy Towers for good, the team must work together to get everything ship-shape. This means there's no room for vermin (or even Siberian Filigree Hamsters) on site!
Meanwhile, The Major takes a knee in the nut-sack; we take a look at the poorly received Andrew Sachs spin-off 'Dead Ernest'; and get positively giddy talking about cheese and crisps in our most rambling tangent to date. It's the season finale and things snowballed a bit!
