What on earth has Jimmy Carr done to his face? (International listeners, Jimmy Carr is an English comedian who is well known for his humour and love of plastic surgery.) This vital question by Miles follows on from previous hot enquiries such as 'Where is the brown sauce?' and leads to a discussion of how we have all got a bit more plastic. 'Jimmy Carr looks like a ventriloquist's dummy,' says Helen. 'I don't think I would want him on my knee,' says Miles. This episode was recorded on April 20th 2024.

Waiting for Miles to arrive in Durham, Helen consumed a packet of lentil crisps and then had an egg custard and THEN went out for dinner. So we were both gluttonous. Then we repented. Then we had a think about the seven deadly sins. It is now Easter and time to get some easter eggs. In Roman times, they had a vomiting room. 'We were all pogged,' says Miles. 'It sounds like we've been to a weird party,' says Helen. Enjoy!
