Summary

For the first time in what’s felt like years Elis, John and Producer Dave were finally reunited in Central London this week, and just like any other family reunion a wide range of emotions were experienced during the show: excitement (from John checking on the Freddie Mercury auction), frustration (from Producer Dave, because John kept checking on the Freddie Mercury auction), and love (from Elis, amazed at John’s dedication to checking in on the Freddie Mercury auction). Away from all the Queen chat, Robbie Knox - the brand new landlord of The Moon Under Water - stopped by to say hello before submitting a law into the Petty Parliament, a DI Robbyns cover to rival Goldie Lookin' Chain was sent in by a listener, Producer Dave shared his drumming ambitions and the BBC canteen benefitted from a massive cake order (eventually).

0:46.2	Well, this is the star dust you can't put a price on.
0:50.2	I mean, the bracelet that we might talk about on the show would, if it had not been
0:56.8	owned by Freddie Mercury, it would probably be worth about £800.
1:00.8	Okay.
1:01.8	Yeah.
1:02.8	Interesting.
