Summary
Jemma and Marina are in a nostalgic mood so have trawled through the Trawl archives to find some of their favourite bits from old episodes. A theme soon emerges. It transpires that the Trawl ladies are most prone to losing it whenever the Royals feature. Relive some of the Coronation chaos, some Paddington Pathos and a very special Order of the Bush.
But it's not all regal, there are weird pronunciations from Jeremy Hunt too and enough bell endery to make this a very funny trip down memory lane..
Merry Christmas!
