DFYGG welcomes it's first guest, Mr Nick Maloney, known to MBB fans as Dermot's nemesis Mr Trembly.

Nick joins me for a fascinating chat about his career on radio, stage, TV and film.

I know any sitcom fan will love to hear about his life on screen.

Sit back, get yourself a cold Binky, and enjoy the podcast.

So, a new era is upon us. It’s time for Gary to find a new payer of the rent. An advert in the local paper should do the trick….then it's just a case of whittling the list of applicants down....

Neil Morrissey makes his debut in the show as Tony, a part he will become famous and renowned for, and is still recognised for today.

Tom, from One Foot in the Podcast, a great podcaster and a close personal friend of mine, joins me this week.

We talk at length about Dermot’s departure, Tony’s arrival, the genius of Dave Atkins, as well as a whole host of other topics.

Enjoy the show.

Don't Forget Your Goodbye Gherkins is thrilled to welcome it's first guest, John Lush, of the Monkeys and Dogging Peter Kay's Car Share Podcast. 

John and I chat through this last episode of Series 1, which is also Harry Enfield's swansong. It's a real pleasure to be joined by a fellow fan and podcaster.

Gary feels the time is right to move on, but how can it break to George and Anthea they too could be losing their jobs?

Dermot lands a job and a chance to impress at the same time. Surely even he couldn't make a mess of being a restaurant waiter?

It is sad to say goodbye to Dermot, but all good things must come to an end. And of course, the space on the sofa is not empty for long....

Enjoy the episode.

Series 1 continues, with a foray into the world of squash, bank loans and live musical entertainment.

Can Dermot finally make some progress with Deborah, now that she is newly single?

Meanwhile Gary finds that an open relationship is making him increasingly jealous, which leads to him making a fool himself in new and interesting ways.

Thank you for your continued support with the pod.

It really is great fun to make these episodes.

The podcast looking through Simon Nye's seminal sitcom Men Behaving Badly continues.

Join me this week, as I look through S1 E4 Animals, an episode where, well, not a huge amount happens, but the stuff that does is well written and above all very funny as usual.

Dermot is on a training course, and meets both an unusual course leader, and a chance of romance other than Deborah.

Gary wants an open relationship, but hasn't banked on actually having to trust Dorothy as part of it.

Enjoy the show.

Welcome Back to the pod. Thanks for the feedback so far, I am really enjoying looking through these episodes in detail. If you would like to join me on the pod, or have any suggestions for areas of discussion, please email [email protected].

This week....

"Chess, I adore Chess. How do you play again?" Paraphrasing a line from the immense sitcom Bottom there. The sport of kings is very much on the agenda for this episode. As are tickets to the opera. Surely the boys won't lower themselves to petty one-up-manship??

Enjoy the pod.

Lets begin, at the beginning (as Status Quo once said)...

Series 1. Episode 1. Intruders. Harry Enfield as Dermot. On ITV, pre-watershed. The show was a little different in these early days. But the foundations are laid.

Gary and Dermot are flatmates who enjoy the finer things in life. Dermot is about to start a new job. Gary wants to dump Dorothy. And someone is about to move into the empty flat upstairs.

The saga begins...

Welcome to the pilot/first episode of Don't Forget Your Goodbye Gherkins, a Men Behaving Badly retrospective/review podcast.

I start with some character Biographies, and then have a look through Series 3 Episode 1- Lovers.

I will go back to the beginning (Series 1) starting with the next pod...

Thanks for listening.
