Lunchtime with Michael Fry - Episode 5. Rebecca takes over while Michael struggles to move on

Download Episode 5. Rebecca takes over while Michael struggles to move on

Farcical parody of a magazine radio show with absurd guests, debates and live music. With Michael Fry fired and Rebecca Spaghetti-Junction now hosting the show, the newly rebranded ‘Junchtime’ faces its first major challenge. Unable to accept his downfall, Michael repeatedly attempts to force his way back onto the airwaves, disguising himself as callers, reporters and even a pizza delivery guy.
Elsewhere, listeners propose increasingly questionable solutions to the environmental crisis in Lough Neagh, while families recount disastrous visits to a controversial Narnia attraction that leaves some customers traumatised, enlightened or unexpectedly aged by several decades.

Featuring news, travel, fake adverts, listener calls and music from Charli XC.S Lewis.
Written by Michael Fry, Sean Burke, Ciara Knight, Eleanor Morton, Carl Kinsella and Mick McCullagh
Performed by Michael Fry, Sean Burke, Ciara Knight and Ruby Campbell.
Producer: Marc McElroy
Executive Editor: Andy Martin
