As the most famous Mackem on the internet, Katie starts the pod celebrating some amazing Sunderland-related news. Then we quickly move on to the penultimate episode of Year 2, The Immunity Syndrome. There's John wearing a strange ski mask thing, Tony getting space rabies, the girls flying a glider and an amazing red shirt body count. There's also a famous dad, which Katie gets before the opening credits have even rolled. So much for teasing that one.
Post-pod we take an article from 1977 about the Landau-Bain's bedroom habits, which is actually two sentences on them not going to bed on an argument, and the rest about their life style. We boo-hoo about the fact they 'only' had a five storey house in Beverly Hills, find out about how they met, and about Martin's secret passion. Spoilers: it's not Tony's homebrew.
What happens when someone who's never seen classic 70s sci-fi watches it with their other half who's a total geek for it? Will they love it, hate it, or ask for a divorce on the spot? The Mackem (Katie) and the Manc (Colin) from England are watching all 48 episodes and, for you the wonderful listener, we hope there's some humor and fun comments. You can also listen and watch at the same time, or just enjoy the banter. Warning - there's a few rude words!
