4. Lighthouses; Self-care Tolkien style; Jane Austen is dead and Prime Ministers

from The Old Fools

David Quantick and Ian Martin squabble their way through a week of news in the company of Scottish screenwriter, Andrea Gibb. Beards, lighthouses, Gary Barlow's son, American unpleasantness, self care, Tolkien, public service poetry. It's clear this is another wide-ranging, swear-peppered grumble-fest. "There's a pleasing edge of Derek and Clive to proceedings' - The Daily Telegraph "Why do they have to swear so much? - Random listener "Shouldn't all your shows be this funny?" - Producer's wife Yes - that's a real review from The Daily Telegraph Sort of topical, cultural rants and conversation from the point of view older people who still give a damn about the world around them. The inside pages of the broadsheets: Entertainment, broadcasting, nature, science, obituaries, lifestyle, environment, business, fashion, health. Strong language throughout A Giddy Goat Production
