    Lair of The Dog

    03/10/2026 | 47 mins.
    A huge thank you and welcome to our newest Patreon members : Ruth, Tee, Kit, Paula and Kirsten.

    Welcome back Secondhand Surfboard and big thanks to Matthew for the upgrade.

    We're back in the saddle this week, calling up the latest Ambridge helpline, plotting who we can ban from our wedding, testing the limits of the village shop and checking out the canine attraction Martyn's planning.

    We've put the following names in the hat :

    Post-Pop Shop : George nips out for the bear necessities.
    Field of Dreams : Martyn takes Lynda's lead.
    In The Name of The Great-Great Grandfather : It's a 'no' to Joe though.

    Monty's First Week : Time Travel Special 2018

    26/09/2026 | 42 mins.
    As Matthew was on the road this week, we've gone back and had a listen to the omnibus in which Monty first dogwalked into Ambridge.

    Elsewhere you'll find us discussing Harrison and Fallon falling out over plastic, Alistair and Shula in their truly awkward era and Christine playing a blinder in the tearoom.

    Oh, and some minor stuff about Brian poisoning The Am. No biggie.

    Hope you enjoy the classic ad medley too.

    You can listen to the omnibus here for reference :
