On the Pilot TV podcast this week we're tapping into that big Dickens energy with the BBC's new take on a Christmas carol and continuing

to get into the festive spirit with the Christmas special of Idraselbers in the long run.

If you're not of a festive disposition, do not worry though. We also have an in-depth study of workplace

bullying in the form of I TV sticks and stones. Something for everyone this week.

I'm James Dyer and welcome to the penultimate regular podcast of 2019 as we head

into the final week before Christmas Terry has taken the opportunity to have a few

well-des deserved days off.

She's got a feet up somewhere,

presumably binge watching the entire first season of The

The Witcher in preparation for next week's podcast,

but in her stead, we have once again drafted in a worthy replacement.

She is the co-runner of the Beckdale Test Fest and despite my entreaties has so far

resisted suggestions to start a companion festival, the Bellend Test Fest, in which all entries

must contain at least one conversation between two characters who are not Bellends

about something that doesn't involve another Bellend. Something that's

succession and indeed this podcast would not pass it is Beth Webb how are you Beth just well now I'm absolutely

dandy thank you very much good I'm glad'm glad. Yeah, Bellend Test Fest.

It's a thing.

Yeah. Oh, okay.

Pause everything else.

Do it. The Bellend Test Fest must happen.
