No Milo this week so Phoebe and Pat are donning their stockings and heading to Sherwood Forest for a dose of British children's TV from the 80s and 90s - Maid Marian and Her Merry Men. Expect a fair few digressions.

Milo and Phoebe are deep diving into yet another Liz Truss-coded Roman Emperor: Otho. Expect thrills, spills and castrated boy-wives.

Phoebe is turning the question time tables on Pat this week (Milo will return next week) to indulge her special interest subject: the Tudors, what's their deal and why do we keep making TV and movies about them?

Just Milo and Pat this week, cracking into the relatively thin text of the Emperor Galba - the Roman Liz Truss...or was he? Expect an Australian vibes round-up and also some apposite comparisons with the collapsing American empire.

No Pat this week (due to timezones) so Phoebe has lured Milo into her Tudor corner. Expect ruffs to be ruffled and bodices to be ripped. Why does this movie have Eric Cantona in it? Why is Vincent Cassel in a dress? Questions to be answered.

Phoebe has recorded a new podcast mini-series with friend of the show Dr Eleanor Janega about Season 1 of the Wolf Hall TV show.
