Stephen Fry has upset the ruddy faced members of the MCC; it has left Giles awkwardly fiddling with his box as he balances his desire to join the MCC with his admiration for Mr Fry.

No such trouble with Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak who come in for equal disdain. Was it a debate or a barrister and a banker meeting at the school gates? Or a special episode of Numberwang…?

The debate slid to one side Esther and Giles consider a throbbing question; What are the most annoying ‘corporate speak’ phrases? Low hanging fruit, blue sky thinking…? Whichever it is, Giles and Esther are about to smut them up for you.

Esther thinks Giles has a big one, Giles thinks it is actually quite small, certainly not as big as Fergie’s. Thank goodness the late Queen Elizabeth insisted Fergie parade hers in public…

After all the saucy talk Esther needs a stiff drink…but not on a plane.

Finally, its back to the election as Rishi Sunak enlists Tom Cruise into his campaign team…

Giles and Esther are away this week. In their absence here is a short collection of recent highlights.

Giles faces a late fitness test. Esther takes the AA road quiz. And why won't flying taxis go south of the river...?

Hope you enjoy them. Please do like and share and we’ll see you next week.

** This episode was recorded just before Prime Minister Rishi Sunak called the election; please sit back and bask in an election free zone.

Has Kevin Costner got better with age? Esther thinks so. She also ranks his film ‘Robin Hood Prince of Thieves’ as the best of all time, unlike his current project – Horizon: chapter one.

In a spooky premonition Giles stars in his own vanity project; a gripping drama about a snap election, an assassination and an ageing dad being called up to save the ashes.

A new sex themed Italian restaurant has opened in Milan, Giles does not want to know what the specials are!

Despite the recent tragic events statistically air travel is still very safe…just don’t board a plane built by the NHS and run by the Post Office. Whatever the plane, the 'Campden People’s Theatre' will be flying first class, but they’d love to mix with those in the cheap seats…

Finally, it’s time to prepare! Never mind the election we’re talking pandemics, learn from lock down - more pasta and hummus, less toilet roll.

If you’re wondering what the pitter patter in the background is, that’ll be the rain.
