049 - Covered In B's

10/29/23 • 24 min

Lots of things beginning with B in this episode, and some not!
Will the upcoming release be the last "new" Beatles tune?
The Captain is deep into a time shifting whodunnit on Netflix called Bodies, whilst ElTele checks out the Beckham documentary.

The Captain reviews English costume drama Wicked Little Letters well in advance of next year's release, and welcomes the return of the cinema interval.
Johnny Marr has a new book out, and talks about his pedals for the guitar nerds among us.
Footballing legend Eric Cantona has released some new music (bien sûr!) and we rate the Soccer Sensation that is Jude Bellingham.

And by the way, we don't believe in ghosts. Or do we?

048 - Stones, Blades and Bullet Train

We talk about our couch potato go-to TV programmes. Guilty pleasures? We’re not guilty!
ElTele checks out the Jay Blades documentary, and we both review an uncomfortable watch in The Reckoning, the four-part drama about Jimmy Savile, starring Steve Coogan.
The Captain is reading a really good novel that inspired a slightly less good film, and checks out the new Rolling Stones studio album, 18 years after the last one.
ElTele pops out to throw a few darts and scores a 140, and we talk about some notable anniversaries.
And we try to explain just what it is about social media that annoys us (but please like, subscribe and share all our podcasts!).

Next Episode

050 - The Beatles - The End?

Is it really the end? Did we like the final Beatles product?

And what's more, did we ever think Monty Python was funny? Is comedy in some cases more about a sense of unity with like-minded fans, rather than actual laughs? We try to put these thorny issues to bed.

In other news, we trail All The Light We Cannot See, the dramatisation of Anthony Doerr's acclaimed novel, and the police procedural Shetland, now up to season 8.
Tommy Emmanuel will tour NZ and ElTele will be there.
We're both slightly baffled by TikTok train spotter Francis Bourgeois.

And will New Zealanders appreciate Mortimer and Whitehouse going fishing on primetime TV?
