36:24

You’ve probably heard the phrase “it takes money to make money,” and while usually the person telling you that is just trying to sell you something you don’t need….there is some truth to it. At least in the way our economy works. It’s also true of how feudal economies worked. The post 462 – Defenestration Nation first appeared on The British Histor…

Part 2 of our breakdown of Phoenix Nights as we continue to struggle with the urge to quote every single line.

38:09

We’ve been spending a lot of time with Rufus and Robert. And that was the way things were back in the 11th century, too. Rufus and Robert got the attention, while Henry… the youngest, and apparently most forgettable brother… was often left out.

Desmond's (Part 1) 51:43

27d ago51:43

51:43

Desmond's was the culmination of a big push in the 80s (mostly by Channel 4) to have wider cultural and racial representation on TV. But this was no box ticking exercise; at its heart it is a down-the-line family sitcom but it does it oh so well.Norman Beaton, Carmen Munroe, Rom John Holder; these were performers at the top of their game captured i…

Whoops Apocalypse (Part 1) 50:21

1M ago50:21

50:21

Today we go back to the eighties and Cold War paranoia with the relatively obscure Whoops Apocalypse. More interesting for its position in the history of comedy than for its actual content, could this show be the glue between the sixties satire boom and the alternative comedy of the eighties?Oleh British Sitcom History Podcast

2M ago33:30

33:30

The Tudors are one of the most famous dynasties in royal history. We can't stop talking about them. It's easy to forget how unlikely the dynasty was. Without the extraordinary ability of Margaret Beaufort to make connections with both sides of the Wars of the Roses, we probably never would have had a Tudor dynasty!

Maybe it's just our age but it feels like Keeping Up Appearances was almost ever present when we were growing up. But how does it hold up in the cold light of day? Could it be a timeless classic or is Hyacinth Bucket a true britcom villain?Oleh British Sitcom History Podcast
