The One with the Bottomless Brunch

Season 4, Ep. 9

This week on Slinky by Tuesday, Katie and Lucy discover that a bottomless brunch and a Slimming World weigh-in are not always the happiest of companions… 🍹😂 Did they manage to stay on track, or did unlimited cocktails have other ideas?


They also enjoyed a trip to the theatre, catch up on all the week's adventures, and, of course, there's another instalment of "The Secret Diary of Dudley the Puppy", as everyone's favourite mischievous pup shares his latest canine confessions.

Plus, Dog of the Week returns, celebrating another four-legged superstar, and there's a brand new feature making its debut… Would You Rather? 


Expect impossible dilemmas, plenty of laughs and the sort of conversations that only Katie and Lucy could end up having.


So, grab a cuppa (or something a little stronger if you've just survived a bottomless brunch yourself!) and join us for another episode packed with friendship, fun and a healthy dose of chaos.
