Summary

Hello again! Thanks to uber-fan Chike for using Subbable to commission us to do a custom podcast for the first two episodes of the BBC's Murphy's Law, series three! A gritty crime drama featuring James Nesbitt as Thomas Murphy, an undercover police officer involved in a series of investigations of the UK's underworld. If you like thick Irish accents, even thicker handlebar mustaches, and witticisms like, "you'd eat the balls of a skunk" and "a bird in hand leaves shite on the palm", you'll love Murphy's Law.

arcs running through it. We were commissioned to watch season 3 episode 1 and 2 and we did

so. We also accidentally watched season one pilot and episode one. Yes. So I'll probably be comparing those two things because the show changes a lot between the early seasons and the
