It's part two of the DWSC's jaunt to the Ventnor Fringe last month, and today we're joined by local MP for Isle of Wight West, Richard Quigley, who told us about his mother's misdemeanours on his childhood haircuts, as well as the time he witnessed a robbery as a student. The team then delves into a story of an eccentric leader, who would still be preferable to some of today's real life offerings. We also hear about the time Taylor married The Hoff and when the Isle of Wight attempted to have its own currency. Finally we hear from a member of the audience who seeks answers for a crime connected to an ill-advised teenage party with a whole host of subjects to choose from.

The seventeenth day of the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe.
The studio was bursting at the seams during this recording, as Hannah and Taylor welcomed the stars of the 'Killers, Cults and Queens' podcast, Nikki and Cheryl, as well as a veritable posse of onlookers sitting at the side-lines. As Nikki and Cheryl are no strangers to crimey content, it's not surprising that they each came armed with stories of ne'er-do-wells infiltrating their own lives, which includes spectral beings and TV producers - so not too dissimilar. The gang then investigates a case in which Taylor displays a surprising amount of knowledge on the art of knife throwing, before delving into a listener crime which could be referred to as 'The Italian Job' , but on a slightly smaller scale.

Absolute scenes at DWSC HQ when MAFS* very own expert on all things sex and relationships, Charlene Douglas, popped in to show that her skills in psychology transfer seamlessly to crime solving, although her scam radar probably needs a fine tune if her opening story is anything to go by.The team then look into a case which proves six year olds tread a fine line between master manipulator and being the worst criminal sidekick you could employ.

One-Act Play Collections - Book 15, Part 3 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 15 Overview: Here, in our 15th collection, are 10 One-Act Plays for your enjoyment. They range from the mid-1600s to the early 1900s, from outright farce to bittersweet relationships, all short gems to make you laugh, cry, think, or all three. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

What a day it was at DWSC HQ, as not only were we joined by actor and writer of the detective series Karen Pirie*, Emer Kenny, but we also had a visit from fabulous listener (and competition winner) Margareta, who popped over from Sweden to get on the mic and share a mystery of one very slick intruder.Before that though, Emer kicked things off by telling us about the time some suspicious 'substances' arrived anonymously through the post - and why the garden shed is the best place to store such items, before helping Hannah and Taylor get to the bottom of a German heist, which turned out to be more than double trouble.*All episodes of Karen Pirie are now available to stream on ITVX.

Wait a minute. Yes, our dear (Bryan) is in Edinburgh right now, but we're just getting right into it this week because we have a special guest who's been in The Carriage House so much it might be insulting to call her a guest. She's family at this point, pardon me. It's our dear, dear friend Jessica St. Clair! If you're not listening to Jessica's podcast THE DEEP DIVE (with the equally lovely June Diane Raphael), we don't know what to tell you. You're missing out! Ronna and Jessica, who's off to the south of France tomorrow for a well earned vacation, have a little Carriage House Catch-Up of their own (did Ronna REALLY give Jessica some bad pot?) before giving advice on a mother vs mother-in-law battle and what to do with a boyfriend whose home is less than clean. It's time to get hinky. If you're anywhere near Scotland, you've GOT to go see (Bryan)'s show ARE YOU MAD AT ME at the Edinburgh Fringe! Now showing through the end of August!
