Off The Telly - How’s the guinea pigs’ extension?
Download How’s the guinea pigs’ extension?
Natalie Cassidy and Joanna Page chat about all things on and off the telly.
Nat and Jo are back together in the studio and Jo loves Nat's new haircut. They catch up about Jo's four guinea pigs, Nat's two rabbits, plus have a natter about two shows in some of their favourite genres - Murder Mysteries and Comedy. Towards Zero is a new Agatha Christie adaptation which is right up Jo's street, and Big Boys is a comedy on Channel 4 that so many listeners recommended they just had to try it.
What they can’t stop watching, what they definitely aren’t going to bother with, new releases and comforting classics – TV is timeless and no telly is out of bounds.
As well as having a natter about what’s on TV, they share backstage goss from the world of telly, whilst also cracking up about the more humbling moments in their lives.
Self-confessed TV addicts and stars of two of the biggest shows on our screens, EastEnders and Gavin and Stacey, Natalie and Joanna are the perfect companions to see what’s occurring on and off the telly.
