Episode description

In Collings and Herrin Podcast 117, recorded in the heat of the middle of the day with salty tidemarks forming everywhere - fortunately not pictured, as BT have decided to turn back time in Richard's house to the late 90s when the internet took ages for pictures to scroll into view - we dissect the comedy ambitions of Lembit Opik, the new benchmark by which all latecoming stand-up comedians with confidence but no jokes must now be judged; the motives of the Sun's front page image of a soldier who's been shot in the face in Afghanistan - see full video at thesun.co.uk!!!!! - the media's surprising fascination with an attractive female Russian spy; and the fashion impact of foot gloves. But mainly we reminisce about the good old days when pictures took ages to scroll into view on the internet and wait for a man to finish unloading 1,000,000 Christ On A Bike programmes.
