Summary
John is back in Derry & Toms to talk about another novelisation, but we're taking a break from Blakes 7 to focus on another early 80s obsession of ours... Well. Two. They just happen to combine to glorious effect in the classic slice of Daily Mail wet dreamery that is Who Dares Wins. Therefore, we get to watch it again for the 8,000th time and discuss it alongside its novelisation, The Tiptoe Boys, by James Follett. Some other bits that pop up along the way include: Nissan Almera ads from the 90s The Bullshitters Chas n' Dave as protest rockers Be sure to check out Trystan Mitchell's work at The Bigfoot Studio
