Summary

James and Terri made a Faustian pact in advance of this week’s show, which leads to a rather unexpected instalment of What We’ve Been Watching. Then we then try to work out what on Earth is going on with BBC Three, how the Golden Globes ceremony was one of the best things on telly last week, and which teen shows float each member of the team’s respective boats. Plus we find ourselves looking for love in lockdown via Star’s Love In The Time Of Corona, on the trail of a rogue AI in Star’s curiously capitalised neXt, and on the trail of a missing person in ITV’s surname-based cop thriller, Grace.

0:13.4	capitalisation in next on-star, looking for a pandemic paramour in love in the time of

0:46.6	whole podcast necessarily has to revolve around that fact, although it might end up revolving
0:52.0	around the Fausty Impact I made with Terry this week in order to get her to watch it,
0:56.7	but more on that in just a minute.
0:58.9	Because I'm joined on the show this week by my two co-hosts, The Woodward and Bernstein
1:03.6	of Modern Entertainment Journalism, Boyd Hilton and Terry White.
1:07.8	How are you both?
1:08.8	Bye, thank you.
1:09.8	Fine, I would just like to apologise for mispronouncing Negan's name in last week's
1:13.9	podcast.

1:19.3	some reason, Joe, you didn't pick me up on it.
1:20.8	People have complained on Twitter and it was stupid and I actually, bear in mind, I hosted
