Behold the Knuckerhold Dragon!

This one is a bit bonkers but we (Lily) love it anyway. Lex misses the maggots of course, but that's just Lex for you.

How could you NOT love it though? Morris Dancing, liquid rubber, a bloke called Marvellous, AND a blow pipe! Lex was about to go on holiday when we recorded and she is at her giddiest...which is saying something.

Oh, and apologies for the Dick Johnson of it all. We came across a person with that name just before recording and you know how infantile we are when it comes to names. Sorry Dick.

The Met Police are at it again! DCI Joe Mottram is in Capri to spend time with his daughter and his in laws following the death of his wife. Naturally, the murders come rolling in and he must help the local plod catch the various bad guys.

The whole thing feels like a deja vu, and we're still not quite sure how the murder happened, but it does have that guy from Coronation Street in it...you know the one.

We also discuss Gary Lucy, and various different types of pants.

First of all, apologies if your name is Alan Daniels. Or Alan anything, actually. We are not kind to you in this episode, but we do love you really.

Blame "Above Suspicion"! It pushed us to the edge of reason with the gassy corpses, sexual harassment, drooling murderer, graphic flashbacks, and, of course, ALL THE MAGGOTS.

DCI Langton is not the only one who needed a tumbler of whisky by the time the credits rolled.

Needless to say, Lex loved it.

Better late than never! Especially if you watched The Puzzle Lady and were starting to grow resentful towards us. We apologise. For everything. Our tardiness. Our program choice...

We didn't love this one, but we did get to say "no dick, no joy"* again, so maybe it was worth it. And yes, we know Mr Kipling is not an actual person who bakes for the masses.

Our next episode is on "Above Suspicion," season one, episodes one and two. This is available on ITVX in the UK and on Prime and Apple TV elsewhere in the world.

Hey presto! It's our second episode of Patience, and we did, indeed, lose our patience with it. There is a man with a silly hat though, which goes a long way with us, but sadly not far enough.

Buckle in for magicians, jewel thieves, and a Master Manipulater.

Apparently.

Our next episode is on "Murder Most Puzzling", season one, episode one. This is available on Channel 5 on demand in the UK, on PBS Masterpiece in the US, but you might need a VPN elsewhere in the world.

Better late than never! Apologies for the late delivery of this episode; Trial and Retribution knocked us out and it took us an extra few days to digest. Especially with all those maggots. All. Those. Maggots.

If you can stomach maggots though (not literally), and want to see Richard E Grant in FULL flow, then we recommend watching this series of Trial and Retribution.

This episode contains descriptions of fictionalised violence, and, of course, is full of SPOILERS.

At time of recording this programme was available on ITVX in the UK, and on Britbox, Prime, and Apple TV elsewhere in the world.

Our next episode will be on "Patience," season two, episode three. This is available to watch on Channel 4 catch up in the UK, on the ABC in Australia, and on PBS and Prime in the US.

What great japes this programme is! We thought Sister Boniface was really quite spiffing actually. There are lolly stick pipe holders, a chatty parrot, and a deadly puppet. Why ANYONE would choose to live in a village named "Great Slaughter" is beyond us, but thankfully Sister Boniface is on standby to solve the many, MANY, murders that happen there.

This episode contains scenes of fictionalised violence and, of course, is full of SPOILERS.

Our next episode is probably on Trial and Retribution, but as we're a bit behind on things (Lily had to host birthday party for TWENTY FOUR 11 year olds) we haven't chosen a series yet. Will update here when we can!

Taggart! At last, oh happy (if a bit grim) days! We have venomous snakes in beds, cars, and dog food, a spider up your sleeve, juicy frogs, fatal spaghetti, and a lot of TERRIBLE hair! And a description of Lex's Burns Night outfit from the early 2000s, because why not.

This episode contains descriptions of fictionalised violence, and, of course, is full of SPOILERS.

At time of recording Taggart was available on Channel 5 on demand in the UK, Prime and Roku in the US, and ABC iview in Australia.
