The mad lads return to pay tribute to the late Prunella Scales, some Halloween themes and general comedy chatter.
We hope you enjoy this!
A Birthday Special - A talking crap special
Welcome back after an extended break from podding.
This episode contains almost no planning or strategy. And not much One Foot.
Sponsored by: One Foot in the Podcast
Okay, stand easy, men.
Daz and Griff give the lowdown on the weekend that came and went, exploring Dad's Army filming locations - still live from my grotty bedroom.
After previously doing a One Foot in the Grave and Only Fools and Horses tour in Christchurch and Bristol respectively, we travelled to Thetford, Norfolk to a Dad's Army jolly up.
Daz and I commentate about the weekend ahead and the expectations we have - just a laid back discussion, live from my hotel room - incidentally, at the Bell hotel where the cast would often stay during filming.
This is a bit of a lazy one - including the editing!
The 3 of us talking about 'Friday 14th' Only Fools ep since we had planned to release this ep on Friday 14th March - but failed that!
Then we played a sitcom character fantasy game - play along!
As huge fans of Only Fools and Horses, we decided to pull apart some of the elements of the show that did not always add-up.
Given that there are countless Only Fools pod related material out there, we thought we'd do one with a difference.

It's been a long bloody while, but here we are, marking a return after a hiatus (once again).
Si, Daz and Griff discuss their individual top 3 'weaselly' type personalities in comedy.
Also, more bemoaning of a lack of studio based sitcom (multi-cam) and a tribute to British Sitcom royalty who is no longer with us - Brian Murphy.
Well, how about that? After quite a few months of leave, we are back with a probable one-off special. We have no idea when the next one will be.
We discussed our personal top 3 British sitcom episodes that were set as a holiday or abroad special. Plenty to choose from.
We also talk a bit of Phoenix Nights and other comedy stuff. And other dodgy shit.
We all watched the very decent documentary that aired on UK Gold - 'Bottom: Exposed' the other day.
Since we're all huge fans of this hilarious and chaotic sitcom, we felt it necessary to offload ourselves (Eddie, don't be so foul!) on to your ears and give our thoughts and views on the world of Bottom.
Shout out to 'Talking Bottom' podcast also.
And Rik, if you're out there somewhere, we miss you, you lovely bastard.

The 3 Comidos are back.
We've been itching to talk about this in depth for a while. One of our all time favourite sitcoms 'The Royle Family' had set the bar so high in the early years, that even Aherne/Cash/Mealey could not maintain its quality from 2006 - 2012.
We debate whether the writing, or the performances of the actors is to blame. Or are we just pig ignorant and ungrateful lanky streaks of piss?
Let it be known, that we still regard even the latter specials as superior compared to most sitcoms in the last 10-15 years.
Thanks for listening!
Well, how about that? A Christmas bonus. Unfortunately not the kind to be deposited into your bank account, but one that'll cram your pod libraries.
Si, Dazza and Tom put forward their individual top 3 Xmas sitcom episodes of all time.
What are yours?
Have a ruddy bloody good Christmas. Eat plenty. Watch British comedy. Fall asleep (not to this pod).
We invited a mate each on to the pod for a cameo appearance discussion.
Meet Rob, Tim and Dan as they chose a favourite Christmas sitcom episode special and were asked to summarise their love for their selected episode and rounded off with a very quick quiz.
Merry Christmas to those 3 wise gentlemen.
The series closes with the chaps continuing to talk absolute nonsense, but in fine spirits as ever.
Contact us - send us a question. Make suggestions. Tell us to sod off, anything!
We'd love to hear from ya.
Honestly, writing these descriptions is more tiresome than it might be for you listening to us - but otherwise, Gawd bless you for still downloading.
We lav ya!
Thank you for sticking with us - we hope Tom's mic issues hasn't turned you off.
I'm not saying nothing!
Goodness me - you've downloaded episode 3. (Thank you, mates)
Since that rhymes, we'll say no more.
You made it past the pilot ep and onto this epsiode. Second one of series 1.
Thank you!
How did you do? What did you think? Did you play along?
Follow us - you'll be our great mates in no time!
Meet Si, Dazza and Tom.
Three 'sad bastards' but three very great mates. Isn't it worth a grin that we managed to have 'Pilot' and 'Fireworks' in the title. What better way to launch (geddit) our first ever podcast.
We decided to get away from the real world to hold grown-up conversations about every fine detail of various sitcoms we love.
We play some games - play along! If you do, then I reckon you won't be able to resist our weirdness and subscribe!
