The 2nd of the Freddie episodes sees Darth Vader invade Moonbase Alpha, John and Helena go off on holiday to Monaco and Dave Prowse takes a fire extinguisher in the nether region. Yes boys and girls, it's a Freddie Special.

It was brave of us to take on Beta Cloud and Space Warp back to back, but for you dear listeners we are up for the challenge. The first of the two crazies sees Darth Fish invade Moonbase Alpha and completely tear up the place. You see Alan's chest hair and naval more than you do the two main stars, who took a break from the madness mid-episode to enjoy the south of France. We also get Bill and his casual erection of an electric fence, Sandra's eye shadow, a pointless 5 minutes shooting lasers at space mirrors, and Tony pisses on his chips royally with Maya.

To round things off, we pay tribute to the most evil man in the universe (not Fred Frieberger) himself with a mini David Prowse quiz, to celebrate the best thing to come out of the West Country since cider.

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!
