Mortgage payments, tudor beams, boilers, tin openers and two toilet seats were just some of the things which came to light in the MP's expenses scandal. Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears have the receipts (or a list of them anyway). Plus a discussion over what constitutes an "Extreme Circus".

Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears look back at May 1982, when the Pope visited the UK and Tenessee hosted the Knoxville International Energy Exposition, better known as Expo '82 or the World's Fair. As such they cover everything from knife weilding nuns to touch screen TVs, from pay-at-pump petrol to milk in a box.

Gareth Gwynn and Esyllt Sears are joined by Dan Thomas, Stuart Laws and the ghost of Diana, Princess of Wales in this late, live and leftovers special!

Live! - because it contains snippets from the Machynlleth Comedy Festival 2024 with special guest, Dan Thomas. Dan's full episode will be along in July, but this will keep you going for a bit! Also, if you want more Mach content, check out Esyllt Sears' BBC Radio 4 Extra coverage!

Leftovers! - because it contains two further clips which got squeezed out of previous episodes - More Cafe Diana chat from our April 2001 ep and Stuart Laws selects his favourite Xennial Dome moment in his 40th birthday edition of the show.

Late! - because... Well, because we'd just got back from Machynlleth and I (Gareth) had a BBC Radio 4 show to finish off about unfinished projects. Ironically.

We seem to spend the whole episode referring to clips and photos so here they are. Apologies if we miss anything out...
