Kicking off our penultimate episode in style, we have a listener email to pore over as we discuss the curiously creepy phrasing to be found in German. We also outline some key strategies to maximise a hotel buffet, and just in time for Simon to go on holiday too.

From which eggs make the right breakfast, we turn to Scotch eggs in the UK as Nic tells us about a dream pub lunch, along with some questions about who sends out the worst tourists. Does Britain really have a monopoly on terrible holidaymakers, and can a dose of patterned German politeness topple the Brits abroad image?
