Summary

This week on Fortunately, Fi and Jane are joined by the comedian Phil Wang. Phil and Fi share their love of Portugal and the three of them then dive into the best way to store girders, what its like to be on a panel show, the importance of optimism, the merits of Las Vegas and much more. There's a test of Jane's incredible time guessing psychic abilities. Before Phil turns up it's gifts galore as Fi brings some goodies back from her holiday and Jane has got her a little something for her upcoming birthday. There's also a loving tribute to a recently deceased icon of computing, leading to a big confession on Jane's part.
