PREVIOUS EPISODES 🔗
In this episode we learn about Roman sponges, reveal the next James Bond (maybe) and survive a never ending alarm bell.
This may be just what you need - Beware! Mars bars kill pigeons, having to cut Tommy the Teacake off, and Auntie Pam fingers the murderer.
We're bursting with nonsense today, we present: bamboo bicycles, your Bibliothèque Intérieur, free bacteria burgers at the community fair and who are Percy's 'bastards'.
So much packed in to this one. Hospitals in Goa appraised, Percy's near death experience at the Priest's Garden Party and the mystery of food powder. And that's just the start of it!
This week we're all about soft play Christ, back by popular deman - Jonny Detail running out of detail, the art of left eye crying, and the debut of the motorised cowboy.
Come on in and discover if Donna's poetry is really her own, Percy's haul of valuable books, Royal train goings-on and how to sleep at work.
Today we learn about Tom Jones at funerals, weird deaths, time zones in China and the possible origin of Donna's weird food.
Between the bookshelves this week, a dirty chat about German toilets, a big mess up with a school visit and Donna's peep show.
Percy can't have an ice-lolly, Jonny Detail breaks brains, Donna's on track for a Booker prize, and Sally just about escapes the army.
