It's a mad time this week as a fusion of light jazz, Lionel Blair, bare chested men and cockroaches confuse the life out of both of us. Colin, even though he's watched it a million times, still doesn't quite get what this episode is about. Indeed, this would have fit in well within the body of Year One. We would have loved to see Victor dancing.

Katie can't remember seeing Quills (2000) and Colin has a hard time with the androids being human and the humans being android. Glenda Allen is in it as someone different, as is Laraine Humphrys. It's very hard work keeping with the '99 extras.

What happens when someone who's never seen classic 70s sci-fi watches it with their other half who's a total geek for it? Will they love it, hate it, or ask for a divorce on the spot? The Mackem (Katie) and the Manc (Colin) from England are watching all 48 episodes and, for you the wonderful listener, we hope there's some humor and fun comments. You can also listen and watch at the same time, or just enjoy the banter. Warning - there's a few rude words!  You can email us on
