The Day three of the Twilight Zone Advent calendar and a question from our good friend Steve Badger

and he says, hi Tom, my question would be one of my

favorite Twilight Zone episodes is five characters in search of an exit which five

twilight zone related people fictional or real would you and your co-host like to be stuck with

and why?

Okay, Emmy, what have you got for this one?

Okay, so when I first read this one, I actually read it initially more as,

who do you think you'd want to be stuck with, who'd help you solve the problem of escaping

or what had happened, and as opposed to people you'd personally

like. So my actors kind of reflect that a little bit. And I had to go with five tough women of

Twilight Zone, you know, five women who I think that if we all get ourselves in a room together,

we would be able to figure out the problem, we'd be able to sort of magic ourselves out of there.

So my choices were Jess Bell from Jess Bell,

because I think I get the impression from her that she's willing to do whatever it takes

to get what she wants, and that's never a bad

thing um nan adams from the hitchhiker because she's clearly petrified you know moments of fear

through this whole episode but she pushes ahead with what she's meant to be doing she never turns

back she never stops she uses every ability in her arsenal to finish what she started. And again, that's a problem solving thing that you want to have. The next one's a bit weird. So Barbara from Uncle Simon. Now, this is not one of my favorite episodes and she's clearly not a very nice person.

But I think she'd absolutely help to figure out what's going on because it would serve her own needs.

So again, a bit mercenary, but I think she'd manage it.
