    Mike Ward and Simon Hoban return after a ridiculously long gap with a brand new and extended Telly Dot Click. Talking points include Apollo 11 moon landing memories, being allowed to stay up late to watch it – and what else was on TV that night? (You'd be surprised...) Also: is cricket too random? Are we secretly bored with animal documentaries? Will VAR wreck football? (Yep). And could putting BBC Parliament on pay-per-view solve a national crisis at a stroke? It's a tremendous episode, even if we do say so ourselves.

    Line Of Duty, Ricky Gervais, After Life, Our Planet, Netflix, Binge Watching, Box Sets, Hard To Please OAPs

    Good grief, it's an actual new episode of Telly Dot Click. Who'd have expected that, eh? We're talking about the new Alan Partridge series, the new Martin Clunes series (the sitcom one, that is), plus TV medical chappy Michael Mosley's strange Junk Food Experiment thing for ITV.

    Goodness me, this week's Telly Dot Click podcast has a special guest – and a humble apology to make to him. That guest is #Mastermind contestant @JazzyJon, the chap who chose Channel 4 comedy The Inbetweeners as his specialist subject and attracted a fair bit of flak on Twitter for doing so. Our co-host Simon Hoban was one of those who took a pop that night, and now feels, well, really bad about it. But will Jon accept his apology..? Elsewhere, we preview shows including the National Television Awards, and BBC1's new Saturday night thingy All Together Now. Please share, subscribe and enjoy.

    Yes, we're back. Hurrah etc. And we've loads to talk about, which is probably just as well, including new dramas Kiri and Next Of Kin, the return of Silent Witness (and its resemblance to Wagner's Ring Cycle, obviously...), the start of ITV's new quiz Britain's Brightest Family, and why BBC2's Inside No.9 may well be the only television programme you ever really need to watch. Enjoy!

    In this week's Telly Dot Click we look ahead to some of Channel 4's Rise Of The Robots season, plus the current glut of consumer shows, plus how BBC2's Peaky Blinders gets creatively violent with scones. Oh, and apparently there's the final of The X Factor. So that'll be nice. Be warned, though: we may stray a wee bit off-topic. It's a habit of ours...
