Episode description
Matt and Luke board the TV Time Machine to look at the TV landscape of May 2000. Steven Moffat's relationship comedy Coupling begins on BBC Two. David Baddiel and Frank Skinner take to a sofa for their new format which sees them sit in front of an audience with no plans of what they're going to discuss, Baddiel & Skinner Unplanned. Guy Ritchie rides the success of Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels to bring Lock Stock... to the small screen with a less charismatic cast. There's also a new sci-fi anthology Urban Gothic, which might be one of the worst things ever watched on the podcast.
