On this week’s episode, two worlds collide as Sarah asks why prawn cocktail and such old school culinary delights as beef bourguignon and banana splits are back on the dinner menu. And Peter will be asking if our policy of bombing foreign countries is driving up mass immigration to the UK.


And the pair pore over our latest mailbag to answer listener questions on whether Kemi Badenoch is really a true-blue conservative or more in the mould of someone like libertarian Javier Milei? The merits of the latest cinematic take on the life of Charles De Gaulle, the shortcomings of the Criminal Cases Review Commission and, finally, what did the 60s ever do for us?


On our reading and watch list this week: 

 

·      The Leopard - Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa

·      I’m Still Here – Dir: Walter Salles

·      De Gaulle: Tilting Iron - Dir: Antonin Baudry
