The gang remembers the Monkseaton Shootings of 1989 – which despite being Britain’s fourth worst mass shooting – no-one else seems to do. Seriously, the BBC’s anniversary story was literally headlined “town struggles to remember shootings”. Britain’s fourth worst mass shooting!

John takes steps to avoid an accidental comeback in local radio. Claire is more interested in the fact that the lead actor in Woof! was called Edward Fidoe than Salman Rushdie’s fatwa or the end of the Cold War. Another Gareth Alexander wins an award. Our Gareth Alexander wins a protractor. A dog gets to ride in an ambulance.

Digressions in this episode include: Noel Edmond’s Telly Addicts, VHS cases masquerading as classic literature, Dalziel and Pascoe, whether Rolf Harris’ paintings have appreciated in value lately, and of course Byker! Grove! Byker! Grove! Byker! Grove! Byker Byker Byker Byker Byker Grove yeah!

Ha-ha Ha-ha Ha-ha Ha-ha

Our theme music is the song “Steady Away” by Pete Dilley and can be found on his album Half-truths and Hearsay which you can/should buy/stream here: https://petedilley.bandcamp.com/album/half-truths-and-hearsay
