Crack open the peapod burgundy and join hosts Robert Turnbull and Alex Lynch as they head back to the suburban 70s to discuss The Good Life.

Their eccentric new lifestyle, as well as the various chickens, pigs and goats they introduce to their garden, horrify and confuse their best friends and - highly conventional - neighbours, Margo and Jerry Leadbetter (Penelope Keith and Paul Eddington).

In this episode, your hosts Tony Black and Rob Turnbull discuss Bottom, the legendary violent cult comedy from 1991 to 1995 written by and starring Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson. Following the sad lives of Hammersmith residents Richard Richard and Edward Elizabeth Hitler, Bottom depicts two lazy, unemployed, perverted middle aged men beautifully. Richie wants to get laid. Eddie wants to drink. Both end up trapped in a hyper-real, comic-book Samuel Beckett world of nihilistic nonsense. How well has the stylised world Rik & Ade created held up over the last 30 years? Plus! Tony is joined by Paul Tanter, one of the co-authors of Talking Bottom: A Guide to the Cult Sitcom, to discuss the show, comedy and much more. We can honestly say they get deep inside Bottom and get the most out of it. Phwoaaaaar! Host/Editor A. J.
