Milo and Pat tackle one of the greatest comedy films of the last decade, including what it tells us about the Soviet Union and modern politics...via a digression about a sack-tapping bike shop owner.Check out Milo on tour in the UK.
As MHM comes to a close, Milo, Phoebe and Patrick close out with a big-hitter. Niece to the Pope, wife to the king of France and definitely not particularly popular with protestants - we get into Catherine de Medici. Expect jousting accidents, a woman called Diane sticking her beak in, embarrassing papal icks and some updates from Salmon Corner TM.
No Pat means it's special interest week. Phoebe and Milo get their teeth into Catherine Parr, the wife who famously survived Henry VIII, via the 2023 Alicia Vikander film 'Firebrand'. They ask the big questions such as: What can Gregg Wallace tell us about Tudor protestantism? and Is it embarrassing for a salmon to get plucked out of a river by a bear? Much to think about.A reminder that Tudor Fans can check out Phoebe and Dr J's Wolf Hall Mini Series.Also Milo is on tour all over the UK this autumn - all shows here.
