Withnail & I

SERIES 2 BEGINS IN EARNEST!

After 20 episodes, and a little break, I decided to call this episode the beginning of Series 2. Gives it a nice little bit of neatness doesn't it, and who doesn't like that? 20 in series 1, who bloody knows how many in series 2? 

Before we gorged ourselves on perhaps the most famous British cult film of all time, this week we fired up the podmobile, stuffed it full of the finest wines known to humanity and shuttled off to Penrith. Only then did we strip naked, cover ourselves in deep heat, and begin podcasting as aggressively as humanely possible. Why of course it's Bruce Robinson's 'Withnail & I', the quintessential cult flick, a film that launched the careers of Richard E. Grant (I first pumped the air) and Paul McGann (Do you like craft beer?). Joining me was regular plodding podders, Jono Bon and Andy Blythe, and we had a great laugh, picking this fabulous cinematic marvel apart. Go off and watch this film, it's available for free on YouTube, it's got rather a wonderfully chilling and tragic performance by Richard Griffiths as the old lush, Uncle Monty. 

Please rate and review the podcast, it helps us soar up the charts and achieve world domination.
