We're back with a Christmas bang and another clean episode of the pod, in language at least if not topic. For those with a keen ear, this episode dropped at 2.30pm, a perfect little nod to panto, a medium both of my guests know all too well. Today we have two heavyweights of the stage, Eric Potts and Brad Fitt, both of whom have been wowing audiences for years performing as Dames every Christmas in UK Panto, a genre I myself was involved with for a decade. Eric brings us memories of Classic Christmas Television and disturbing children's shows while Brad and I discuss the tricky task of protecting our kids from unsavoury imagery, the genius of Larry Grayson, and how a theatre tour of India in 2004 scarred us both. Being a Christmas episode, there is much talk of Morcambe & Wise, Dr Who and surprisingly, the fad that is Prime.

This time we go Behind the Scenes with the fearless, highly talented singer Gilly Hamilton, whose career spanned 3 decades and encompassed the halcyon days of show business and variety. As a key member of the pop-music close-harmony trio The Kaye Sisters she appeared alongside most of the major entertainment stars of the 1970s through to the 1990s. Supporting Max Bygraves, the Kayes appeared in the 1978 Royal Variety, shared a long-running residency in London's West End and performed regularly on many of Max's top-rated television series With recollections of ATV's live ‘Saturday Variety' with Larry Grayson, not forgetting Bernard Manning on Granada's ‘The Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club', plus the travails of working cabaret all across Britain and the Middle East, Gilly's career is a remarkable eye-witness account of what it was really like to be treading the boards during the Golden Age of entertainment.

Movie ratings, TV “family hour” and what rating would AYBS be given in 2020? Miss. Thorpe invents her own filing system in Mr. Rumbold’s office. Don’t mess with librarians. Wigs, taking a suit measurement over the phone, and Bob Newhart on the phone. UK weight in stone: 14 stone = ~196 pounds. Professor Jeff teaches us the way. Jeff & Brandon are confused by “roota” which might be a polari word? Mr. Grainger REFUSES (like a howling hound dog)! Our Bell: the podcast welcomes Gladys! “The thin edge of the wedge”… huh? Capt Peacock gets goosed by a decorator what looks like Larry Grayson (a classic camp UK actor) who was a contemporary of John Inman. Our Unanimous listeners would probably love the comedy of Kenneth Williams. The Ladies and Gentlemen have to share departments and hilarity ensues! Let us know what you think!

In the early 1980s, home video hit the UK, giving anyone who could afford to rent a giant video player the chance to watch movies from the comfort of their own home, regardless of what was on TV. Remember your video rental store, and the video player in the living room? Those stunning video release posters, or the enticing covers of the seedier, cheaper releases? Recall the first video you watched, or the last one you bought? Christian Cawley, James McLean, and Gareth Kavanagh do, and they're here to discuss the golden age of home video. **Shownotes** * Blank VHS cassettes photo on Twitter * [Starchaser: The Legend of Orin](https://amzn.to/2txqMoc) * [British TV ads from the 1980s and 90s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJC_oQ5cyc4) * [Most 1980s advert ever](https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=805&v=y3me0JOqMAo) * First coining of Larry Grayson's famous catchphrase "[Shut that door](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Grayson)" * [Star Wars Audio adaptation](https://amzn.to/2yG4IO4) * [How to Clean a Moldy VHS Cassette](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVq0o2CzVKI) * [HMV's 2018 VHS range](http://www.purplerevolver.com/movies/movie-news/127451-vhs-range-launched-by-hmv%2C-including-top-gun%2C-scarface-and-more-.html) * [C64 VHS backup](http://www.lemon64.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=61209&sid=78ef785cf8afe18259e6b3d38cc36152) * [Codemasters Audio CD of C64 games](http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/Codemasters_CD) Featured image By 100yen [GFDL (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html) or CC BY-SA 3.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0)], from Wikimedia Commons
