Summary

It’s REMAINIACS ASSEMBLE as all our regular panelists convene to “celebrate” a whole year in the Brexit time warp. Ian, Ros, Dorian, Naomi and Peter listen back to our very first episode – back when “strong and stable” was still a thing – to ask, what has changed? What did we get right and wrong? Will Britain ever escape from the time loop that is Brexit? Will Britain ever escape from the time loop that is Brexit? And will Britain ever escape from the time loop that is Brexit…? PLUS: Are the Tory Remainers finally about to grow a spine? If Benedict Cumberbatch is going to play Dominic Cummings, who should the BBC cast as Johnson, Fox and lumpen swamp creature Arron Banks? What are the most Brexity and Remainy movies of all time? And stay tuned to the end of the show for *a twist that nobody was expecting… * “Still, with just a few months to go, none of the parties have got their acts together. It’s extraordinary.” This week’s REMAINIACS is presented by Dorian Lynskey with Peter Collins, Naomi Smith, Ros Taylor and Ian Dunt. Audio production: Sophie Black. Producer: Andrew Harrison. Remainiacs is a Podmasters production. Help us to #OwnTheRemoan!
