Mike Parry and Lesley-Ann Jones present the last Planet Porky podcast before Christmas with added sparkle to help you negotiate these very difficult and very different times.

Topics include: Porky's Christmas starting with a bang, the Baroness of Belgravia, relationship studies, whether your wife should be your best friend, Uri Geller's spoon bending, Richard Osman, Pointless, reading yourself to sleep, the struggles faced historically by indigenous peoples, the fur trade, Vernon Kay, Noddy Holder's festive hit confusion, splitting royalties between band members, T.S. Eliot, the planets aligning, whether the Beatles were more popular than Jesus, wearing celebrity hand-me-downs, staying in hotels, Don Black, Mick Jagger's frugality, and the latest twist in Harry and Meghan vs. the rest of the world. 

From all of us at Planet Porky, have a restful Christmas and keep safe over the festive season.
