#24 - Fleabag, This Time With Alan Partridge and The Miracle

Author: Empire Magazine February 25, 2019 Duration: 1:01:43
This week we have a double bill of BBC comedy gold as Fleabag and Alan Partridge go head-to-head for our amusement. To balance the unfettered mirth, though, we also dive in to Sky Italia's The Miracle, which is not only in Italian but officially featured the most unpleasant masturbation scene we've seen in a good long while. All that and James finally hands in his badge and stops banging on about The Shield, but does find time to proselytise about Aaron Sorkin's The Newsroom instead. Meanwhile Terri goes to the mat for Father Dowling Mysteries and Boyd bigs up Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Crashing.
