Matt, I just wondered if we should make a bit of a clarification about this series for the listeners, because it could be a bit confusing.

Yeah, it could be, but I think it's very straightforward. So this, as you know, is a podcast called British Scandal.

We're covering in this series a story that was featured on a show called a very English Scandal, not to be confused with a show called a very British Scandal, which covered the Duke of Argyle, which this series isn't about, but that we might cover in a future series of British Scandal.

Of British Scandal. But this series of British Scandal covers a story featured on a very English Scandal about Jeremy Thorpe.

Though not all the same beats as a very English Scandal, because obviously this is British Scandal and we deal with things differently.

It's that it's completely different. A very English Scandal is very different to British Scandal, even though we're covering the same story in a different way.

And we're not yet covering the story on a very British Scandal on British Scandal.

I'm just so glad you cleared that up.

Norman Scott rushes from the Del's hotel towards the waiting for Cortina. His great-dane, Rinker, trots beautifully behind.

As they get closer to the beaten-up car, the large dog pulls back on his leash, scared. Norman tugs him gently.

It's okay, Rinker. He's here to protect us.
