Take a double trip back in time with Rich (Jeff) and Pete (Pat) this week as the lads revisit both their university days in late November 1992, with the help of their priceless archive of old letters, and the glory days of Euro 2020 as the tennis aces speculate on whether England will beat Germany back in June of this year (no spoilers). The theme this week touches on the gifts the cash-strapped students sent each other through the post back in the day that included stinky incense, imaginary pints, and a plastic Kiwi fruit spoon, the significance of which (like so much else) the tennis aces struggle to determine. There’s also weird dreams guest-starring Gazza, the dream-like reality of Channel 4’s anarchic late night show, The Word – an episode featuring Oliver Reed and L7 is remembered in perhaps too much detail – and film reviews that fail to spare Nicolas Cage‘s feelings. Booze rears its ugly head once more when Jeff and Pat recall the whisky coma Jim Courier fell into in Steffi Graff’s barn on the Wirral, and the possible link to his trademarked coppery hair.
