Hello everyone, after our long hiatus. We are back with a bang this time though, with 1989's Interceptor(pew, pew, pew)! Watch as Annabel Croft fails to guide two contestants across the Scottish Borders against the clock and under the eagle-like (literally) glare of the Interceptor (pew, pew, pew) to find out to find out whether one of them has won a life-changing cash prize, or nothing more than a suitcase full of rocks.

This time, we put Elly's knowledge of TV and her own show to the test in our Christmas quiz Mastermind rip off, I mean, special edition!. There is also a mid-game change of rules, some swearing and a glass of very dodgy looking beer. Back next time with our New Sofa review!

This time, we are sharpening our wits, honing our memories and testing our bodies to the very limits as we look at The Krypton Factor. Hear about the joys of 1989, Elly's veteran's eye view of the dreaded assault course, and Doug's Surprising Pop Fact of the Week.

This episode we delve into some bittersweet suburban ennui with Carla Lane's 1980's series, Butterflies. With discussion of women's representation, what makes a happy family and quite a lot of bickering about a certain film starring a certain shark.

Tune in and see! Email: dougandelly@outlook.com Twitter: dandewatchtv

A look back this week at 1998's Dinnerladies, Victoria Wood's sitcom set in a factory canteen and featuring an all star cast of the best women in British comedy and drama.

Welcome to the second episode of Doug and Elly Watch Telly; the podcast that explores and revisits classic and previously unseen (by us, at least)telly. We will then treat and assesses whether they have stood the test of time, or should remain a (very) distant memory. This week, One Foot in the Grave. As last week, Elly has opinions and Doug struggles to get a word in edgeways... Tweet us on @dandewatchtv or send any comments or suggestions to us at DougandElly@outlook.com. Please also remember to leave a review on iTunes; thank you!

The first episode of Doug and Elly Watch Telly, a weekly show where we sit down and revisit some old favourites, some obscurities, bicker lightly and generally fail to take things too seriously. Contains some immoderate language, all of which is Elly's fault. This week, 1980's sci-fi flop Star Cops and 1980's Paul Nicholas vehicle Just Good Friends. Next week, it's Round The World With Willy Fogg and One Foot In the Grave. Please get in touch @dandewatchtv with your comments, leave a review on iTunes or InTune, and we will see you then!
