Pull up a chair and grab a plate – you're invited to the very first episode of dinnerlads, the podcast that lovingly revisits every episode of Victoria Wood’s iconic sitcom dinnerladies.
In this debut episode, your host Matt sets the table with a warm introduction to the series, the characters we’ll come to know and love, and the unique mix of comedy, heart, and very British chaos that made dinnerladies a cult classic.
