Lie down with a cool drink as the Show serves up more semi-regular semi-usual semi-entertainment.

16:00 – Library mix
\ Hot production grooves on a hot VHS car journey – to Kidderminster!

16:15 – The Pyramid Game
\ More US-to-UK gameshow shovelware, where celebs assist the plebs. Hosted by Nick Frisbee.

16:40 – Bad Influence!
\ Continuing the protracted vacillation on whether to save up for a 3DO, a Jaguar, a CD32, or a new lavatory.

17:05 – The Simon Day Show (Radio 4)
\ Character comedy – eco-warrior Dave Angel appears at the Mallard Theatre to talk about a-global a-warming.

17:35 – Red Dwarf – The End – The Original Assembly (with commentary)
\ The first episode of RD mostly consisted of re-shot scenes to improve it. Here we have episode 1 assembled from the initial recording session, with flat scenes performed to a comatose audience. To make it more jocular, writers Rob Grant and Doug Naylor commentate on it and talk about their struggles in the show’s early days.

18:10 – The Smell Of Reeves And Mortimer
\ Another episode of R&M’s first BBC show, in the expanded 35-minute form found on the long-deleted VHS releases.

18:50 – True Spies
\ Probing 2002 BBC documentary series. Episode 2 focuses on the UK surveillance deployed against perceived subversion in the 70s and 80s, including enemies of the Thatcher administration.

20:00 – TV Heaven, Telly Hell
\ Johnny Vaughan takes Sean Lock through some of his favourite and least favourite TV. Probable moments of laddism but I can’t be arsed to expunge everything just to avoid Mavis Riley style noises.

20:25 – The Thick Of It
\ Hour-long special of the ace political comedy. The Rise of the Nutters – power struggles and loyalties boil over in the secretive run-up to the PM’s exit from office.

21:25 – Nicholas Craig – The Naked Actor
\ Following on from the first episode shown on Friday’s Late Zone. Nicholas Craig (Nigel Planer) clues up the gen. pub. on how bloody hard it is to be an actor. Marvellous precision satire on acting pomposity.

21:45 – FILM: The Space Invaders: In Search of Lost Time (2012)
\ Pleasant and warm documentary following the people who keep old arcade machines alive, and ruminates on the culture of the classic arcades.

23:10 – CAB TV mix
\ To celebrate the 20th the Show, here’s another airing of the mix I made specially for the Show #1 back in May 2020, this time accompanied by a wander around my home town.

00:45 – Closedown

Bonus music and frippery throughout. Thanks to Sheepy for vacating the Monday slot.
