We're back! This excellent book includes so many siblings: Patrick and Julia, Pip and Emma, Lettie and Lottie... not to mention actual gays and a cat! Tune in to discover Amanda seems to have inexplicably grown up in the 30s while Portia grew up in the 80s.

Recorded over 2 months, we finally finished this episode about classic Agatha Christie plot with a murder during a weekend at a country house, which Portia hated and Amanda thinks Agatha changed her mind about the victim halfway through writing it.

Choose your own tagline: (1) Seven degrees of pronunciation (2) Nofret goes to Hooters (3) Egyptians: they're just like us! (4) Possibly Agatha Christie's best book? (5) Believe it or not this episode was longer and more offensive before editing

A very good Agatha Christie! High on the reading list if you're asking. Discussion featuring: should you poop at your friend's house?, Portia's masterclass in kissing, Miss Marple says calm your tits (not really), so Portia rants about boobs. Amanda supports her, like a bra. Portia revels in schadenfreude, and Amanda gives a Spangles retraction.
