Pour yourself a celebratory drink and nab a piece of cake – we’re heading to the wedding of the season during our Polin rewatch of S2E6 The Choice.

As a hungover Colin ponders the plight of mankind, we join a bejewelled Penelope as she’s faced with a cockblocking Eloise and a most pleasing, stimulating, thrilling kind of torment.

Meanwhile, we’ll be mourning the one Polin mystery we may never solve, admiring an exquisite ruby necklace and turning over in our minds the events of a world-shifting conversation.

Fear not, listeners, he is beginning to believe that now.
