A first look at The West Wing for Pete, and let's just say it didn't immediately grab him...but after a slow burn things do start to look up. Dave meanwhile is like a pig in s**t, dissecting CJ's dentistry mishap, Josh's press conference mishap and Sam and Toby's attempts to locate a rural police station. ————————————If you enjoy the podcast and would like to support it in any way (and believe us, we absolutely do not expect you to, your listening is very much already hugely appreciated) then you can always subscribe to our Patreon.

The IT Crowd - The Work Outing
Another excellent farce is on the cards today, as Paul picks an early episode of the IT Crowd (which also features a musical so Dave is extra pleased).

Frasier: The Ski Lodge
It’s the first ever listener request on WwF this week, and the honour goes to Lydia! She’s picked what is often touted as the best episode of Frasier, and it’s certainly a very easy one to get into even if you’re not familiar with the show.It’s a proper old-school British-style farce, even down to the questionable accents…and let’s just say hormones are running wild…————————————If you enjoy the podcast and would like to support it in any way (and believe us, we absolutely do not expect you to, your listening is very much already hugely appreciated) then you can always subscribe to our Patreon.

The Simpsons: Marge vs. the Monorail
It’s Dave’s turn to choose this week and it’ll come to no surprise to anyone that’s listened for a while that he’s opted for an episode of TV that he literally has tattooed on his arms. AND it’s based on a musical.Dave and Pete discuss their love of The Simpsons and why this episode is particularly excellent - plus they discover the astonishing reason George Takei DIDN’T take part like he was originally supposed to. ————————————If you enjoy the podcast and would like to support it in any way (and believe us, we absolutely do not expect you to, your listening is very much already hugely appreciated) then you can always subscribe to our Patreon.

The Office: Dinner Party
We are BACK! It’s a brand new format and we’re getting used to it so please be patient…!As with the first episode of FWF, this initial choice has been made by Pete, and Dave will have his turn next week, and then it’s over to YOU! Pete’s chosen perhaps the best episode of The Office (the American one, for clarity) - Dinner Party. It’s an absolute masterpiece of theatre with pure chaos descending as the episode goes on, and a fine way to kick off our brand new show!————————————If you enjoy the podcast and would like to support it in any way (and believe us, we absolutely do not expect you to, your listening is very much already hugely appreciated) then you can always subscribe to our Patreon.
