 Weather's turned, gameshow review, wildlife encounters, more YouTube recommendations EP 137 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 2275

The Two Voices start by reviewing ITV’s "Play your cards right". Now it’s aired we can tell you what it was like! The next show is our favourite… "The Price is Right". With all the “Come on down” running we question how sturdy studio seating is! Away from gameshows, We discuss how wildlife has come into our lives during lockdown. More birds and better flowers. “Springwatch” is back on air. Plus The UK’s Wildlife Trust is running a 30 day’s wild campaign: See wildlifetrusts.org Finally… you all seemed to like our You Tube recommendations special a few weeks ago. So we give you two more. Andy suggests “Simple Cooking Channel”. Nick suggests “Living Walks”. Both are excellent and worth a watch! Drop us a line with your recommendations: 2voicesradio@gmail.com

The Archers fan site we mention is dumteedum.com Get in touch with us 2voicesradio@gmail.com

 Warden Hill Walk, triangulation pillars, Gardeners' World EP 135 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1695

Nick and Andy are back together (socially distancing) for a walk in the countryside. They consider the weirdness of lockdown. They talk about BBC Gardeners' World and Nigel the dog. We like the show… but the presentation style is very slow and they seem to be filling it with rehashed features & viewers’ videos. We’re not convinced about this! Plus... we talk about the benefits of walking as we make our way to a high point at Warden Hill in Bedfordshire to a triangulation pillar (trig point). These are marvelous markers across the UK that were used to plot Ordnance Survey maps. Join us for some fresh air! (Get in touch: 2voicesradio@gmail.com)

Nick and Andy ask why younger people are using instant pancake mix... adding more plastic to the environment. Nick says pancakes are for all year round. Andy makes the perfect omlette. (Our show has turned very local radio!) Andy's horrified that Gregg's branches are turning up in Asda! Andy also gets narked by places serving chips as part of a breakfast which leads us onto buffets and Mr Whippy ice-cream. Nick talks about the evolution of ravelogue food shows including Rick Stein's Weekends and the invention of travel cookery shows. Finally... We discuss how government agency staff are losing there technology and how compromising of data this must be!

 Christine Keeler, long running dramas, beds, Sky TV, This Life. EP 126 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 2236

We discuss lots of TV this week, starting with a wonderful TV series "The Trial of Christine Keeler".  It's an excellent BBC TV series. It gets us thinking about other BBC dramas.  We are surprised Holby and Casualty are still going.  Both hospital dramas never seem to run out of obvious accidents and incidents! Our friend Luke tells us about spending just £20 on a new bed.  We're shocked! Just 20 quid? We talk dreadful hats and fascinators...which somehow leads us onto satellite TV and telephones. Finally... we look at classic 90s TV show "This Life" and discuss the longevity of certain shows such as Neighbours and The Archers. 

 Unusual job choices, MPs and abuse, Tracy Brabin dress, Madonna fiasco EP 125 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1466

This week we ask why do people pick certain jobs... accountants, dentists, funeral directors. We also ask why do people become Members of Parliament. We look at MP Tracy Brabin who received abuse for the dress she was wearing. Plus... singing sensation Madonna overruns on her London theatre show and finds the curtain comes down on her!

 Breakfast, old product names, old sweets, high street of the year, cashless, fish and chips. EP 124 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 2325

Old “Top of the pops”. Big breakfast in the morning. Opal Fruits are coming back. We lament old products from the past. Nick needs to get a new passport… which gets us thinking about the cost of things from the past compared to now. We talk about the High Street of the year and what makes a good High Street & what shops will always buck the trend of a recession. Plus cashless businesses… are they discriminatory? Finally… we reveal the chip shop of the year. It’s all here!

 Dentist, cardigans, plastic tax, Luke - Crackerjack and Kids TV. EP 123 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1921

This week… dental pain… Nick has it but won’t dwell on it! Cardigans are now all the rage (apparently) with men. Tesco are ditching plastic wrap on multipacks of cans. Is the plastic tax working or are people just paying for higher quality bags? Asda are trialling stores where you take you own empty containers along. Luke tells us how hard he’s working at University (we don’t believe him). We discuss Crackerjack… the classic TV show is back. Plus… we ask if Grange Hill should come back?
