In a change from the published programme, Nick Brownlee’s Newsletter returns with special guest and long-time associate Gizmund T Curtis joining Nick down the line.

They discuss deadly variant Omicron, late Lindisfarne frontman Alan Hull and soon-to-be-replaced Doctor Who, in that order, and with varying degrees of mental acuity.

Meanwhile the robots start to feel paranoid, and another long-forgotten track by cult folk band The Bemusers is unearthed for your listening pleasure.

Kicking off with the best of the yesterday’s action from the crunch Third Form break-time clash on the hard play area, Episode 4 of the podcast moves silkily down the wing, past Nick’s musical reminiscences before crossing dangerously into Dutch podcast territory for the correspondents to bang home the winner.

Meanwhile on the terraces, the robots are having a fight.
