As the panel sit down to discuss favourite gadgets it becomes quite clear that the age separation also reflects a practical skills separation. Andy likes tech gadgetry, Gareth tends to agree but Martin prefers old school, practical gadgets (albeit with a couple of modern flourishes). Interstingly, post recording this episode, Andy confessed that his wife had recently obtained the exact same practical gadget (from her dad) that Martin was extolling the virtues of as a top choice!

As we say, there are no bad choices but as we frequently prove there are some bad opinions. Let us know what gadgets you can't live without.

Summer is over and the boys are back recording new episodes of the Pick 3 Show. Nothing has changed in that they still discuss, dissect and deride each others choices on any subject sent down from the PickMaster general's office.

Today the discussion covers "Foods (that we could eat forever)" and at least one panellist has a somewhat unique selection as their favourite food! As usual our listeners have their own views and this gives us a unique insight into our audience. Please keep sending us your suggestions as they all make their way to the PM's office.

We have all had many experiences with cars but what were your favourites over the years? The panel meet to discuss the top 3 cars they have owned and the stories that go with them. The rules were simple, all cars must have been owned by panellists and so no chat about Bugattis or Maserattis was tolerated by the PickMaster General.

With Gareth claiming (erroneously) that he understands the world of covert operations and espionage, the panel turn their thoughts to the adventures of the world's most well known secret agent, James Bond (aka 007). With over 20 movies to choose from will the three decades of separation between the panel become somewhat era specific?

Join Martin, Gareth and Andy as they pick their top 3 James Bond movies and then argue with each other over many aspects of these adventures. Surprisingly some correlation starts to appear...

Send us your choices via our X and BlueSky portals, there are no wrong answers but there may well be poor opinions.

An old friend came into town and declared his allegiance to the show. We took that as an opportunity to do a somewhat niche topic of Top 3 planes/helicopters particularly since Lou flew both for the US military. Possibly not everyone's immediate cup of tea but it turned out to be an enlightening chat with more fun/laughs than you might imagine.

Join Martin, Gareth, Andy and Colonel Lou for a slightly unusual episode of the Pick 3 Show. Not sure what our listener choices would be but please forward your lists via our X or BlueSky portals.

Who would you invite round for dinner if you could pick your most fascinating options? Only proviso is that they must still be alive at time of selection. Martin, Gareth & Andy thought long and hard about their perfect dinner combos and, unsurprisingly, all came up with completely different guest lists. There are no wrong answers but the panel still had to justify their picks.

Let us know via X or BlueSky who would be your selections if you had free range to choose.

Every movie needs music but some movie soundtracks become truly iconic. The Pick 3 panel debate their top three movie soundtracks and take a few pot shots at each others' choices. Gareth goes disco, Andy goes spooky but Martin delivers the ultimate choice (his words) to silence the debate. As usual the three decades of separation play a significant role in the selections.

The panel debate their top 3 choices of memorable advert, surely an easy choice for marketing guru Andy. Whether it was an earworm song that stuck in your head, a visual image of epic scale or simply a suave deliverer of chocolates, adverts affect us all differently. With three decades of separation it is no surprise that the panel have a wide range of advert choices.

The PickMaster General threw the panel a curve ball this week and asked them to rank their top 3 childhood fears. Will this episode explain something about Andy's obsession with ghosts, Gareth's fear of the fog and Martin's dislike of hospitals. As ever there is much debate and some derision about the choices but at the end of the day we all know what scared us as kids.

The Pick 3 panel tackle the wide and varied topic "documentaries" on this weeks episode. As has become apparent over the course of the show, the age differential plays a significant role in choices, but as usual everyone finds something to spark debate.

Please continue to send topic suggestions and alternate lists remembering that there are no bad picks but we can find some bad opinions!
