One Foot in the Podcast - One Foot in the Grave

Welcome to a Christmas special ramble on One Foot in the Grave - mostly dissecting Patrick Trent's character traits. Merry Christmas.

Two feet in the grave! 25 years since One Foot in the Grave came to a dramatic and sad conclusion. Feel old yet? Si, Daz and I muse over those final Victor moments, our best and worst 5 One Foot moments and a little round-up of our Christmas comedy special favourites.

Not your average One Foot in the Grave themed ep, but this is sponsored by The 3 Comidos and we thought we may as well upload the recent ep onto this podcast channel. Enjoy!

Welcome back after an extended break from podding. This episode contains almost no planning or strategy. And not much One Foot. Sponsored by: The 3 Comidos.

Welcome back to The 3 Comidos discussing how the location jolly went in Thetford, Norfolk. Apple:The 3 Comidos - Podcast- Apple Podcasts Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/6fP5pYlQAt9ymNln4Xq7FU?si=aef98756835b49b7

Now listen up, (wo)men - this is not a One Foot in the Grave related podcast episode. This is me, with my co-host from The 3 Comidos (Dazza) talking about the Dad's Army location tour in Thetford: Live from the grotty hotel bedroom I stayed at. But it was once good enough for the cast of Dad's Army, so it was good enough for us. Sadly, our other co-host (Si) was not with us for the podcasting bit, but was for the actual tour. The reason for the release of the episode through my podcast channel, is to hopefully drive in some more listeners over at The 3 Comidos podcast - a general comedy podcast which we think you'll enjoy. It needs a bit of love and support. Thanks for listening.

Here's a bonus extra from Rach and her pops, Tim, where they head-off for a quick quiz and take it in turns to reveal their ultimate One Foot themed experience if stranded on a desert island.

A lovely little getaway at April and Vince's boarding house in Bournemouth, two pretty young ladies somewhat gazing over Victor and some monumental misunderstandings of the highest proportion, whip up a bit of a storm for the Meldrews on this not so relaxing holiday. Sarah joins me this week as she helps to dissect this episode and explore the psyche of the main characters.

Previous guests of the pod who I've become good friends with in the last 18 months, Simon and Darren (Monday Morning Will be Fine/The Worst Horror of All and Dreamland/One Foot in the Algarve respectively) joined me as we toured some of the filming locations. We visited Shawford Station, which is where our beloved Victor departed. We also visited Tresillian Way and Norfolk Royale Hotel.There were a few streets we passed in the area that we drove past, but due to time constraints, were unable to stop to discuss the locations. We feel we got the main ones in the bag and pleased with our experience.We hope you enjoy our very organic, mostly unedited podcast!

This is it – the last ever One Foot special to review. Sad and heartfelt times for me – and particularly for an episode that offers so much more than a regular sitcom. The Meldrew’s relationship is put to the test when there’s pent-up anger felt from Margaret over Victor’s misdemeanours, paranoias and the purchase of a second-hand allegedly haunted caravan. Derek and Betty move-in to the Trench’s old place and it won’t be long before their upbeat positivity and outlook of the Meldrews comes tumbling down! You really are a star for downloading and listening - I don't ask for much in life but I do politely request a review and rating via whichever form of platform you use to listen to your podcasts.

Michael starred as Pippa's brother Geoffrey Croker in Series 5 episode 'Hole in the Sky'. His character had misled us very briefly into thinking he was a secret lover of Pippa. Pour yourself a drink, sit-back and listen to Michael's musings of his joyous career and the podcast he also produces and presents: My Time Capsule.

Where would you place each episode of each series? It's bloody hard - but Mike and I compare notes and reveal our personal favourite episodes from position 6 to position 1, series by series. What does your ranking look like? Don't misread that question.
