## Resource

To celebrate the festive season, this week we revisit one of Dando's favourite episodes of all time, 'Marge Be Not Proud' with former Simpsons writer/showrunner, Bill Oakley! Bill was the showrunner for this episode and gives amazing insights into its formation, discussing THAT ending, Lawrence Tierney's now-iconic guest appearance, Mike Scully's airtight script, why it's NOT a Christmas episode and more. An absolute privilege to have the opportunity to talk to Bill about one of the all-time classic episodes of the show. A must for any true Simpsons fan!
