Brunch With The Brits

This is the week we finally relaunch.  There's a  bit of disscussion in the beginning about Matt's long absence and then we'll dive right back in whefre we left off.  With Navy Lark, that means right back to Series 12 and we leaarn what happens when Troutbridge winds up in Shanghai, rather then Shankley and what happens when an old flame enters Povy's office.  Then it's off to London late 1890s as we continue our look at The Casebook Of Sherlock Holmes and The Three Garadebs.  enjoy.  

It feels like the end of an era, not for Brunch but for Narnia.  We've done it along with an hour's worth of Navy Lark, that because this episode was actually recorded last winter I can't remember but fear not.  Brunch is relaunching and I'll have more details on that soon!  Meanwhile enjoy this.  

This week we return with a good long brunch to end the holidays.  We begin with an hour of Navy Lark in which we learn about who can grow a beard faster between Commander Murray and Sub LT Philips then it's strange radio signals that HMS Troutbridge has to figure out.  We continue then with I'm Sorry I'll Reaad That Again and their New Year's Eve 1970 special featuring Dr. Chivago.  Then it's back to Narnia and Part 1 of The Last Battle.  Enjoy.

This week we conclude the Silver Chair and begin the twelfth series of Navy Lark with two episodes.  We also conclude NOtes From A Small Island.  Please enjoy.  It took us a while onthis one, as you'll hear in my monologues between programs.  We hope you're having a delightful holiday season and please email us at brunchwiththebrits@gmail.com with any requests.

This week after what has seemed a long absence we begin The Silver Chair after completing series 8 of I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again and learning all about Western Supermare with Bill Bryson.  Enjoy.

To cclose out July and our annual look at American playwrights as only the Beeb knows how we're looking at Death Of A Salesman and yes it's quite good.  But we also have Bill Bryson's take on Dorsett and an entire hour of I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again.  So sit back relax it's almost four hours you can break up.  Next week it's back to Narnia.  Enjoy.

This week we conclude series 11 of Navy Lark by seeing what happens to Troutbridge under new radar.  Then it's a look at the bride of Frankenstein on I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again Bill Bryson tells us about working at an old sanitorium in Virginia Water and we conclude with a look at Harpo Marks's goodwill tour of Russia in 1933.  Enjoy.

This week as we do our annual July tribute to America, we feature Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, as our play.  We also begin Notes From A Small Island and enjoy rather endearingly Bill Bryson's look at Britain from his American perspective.  There's a little extra fun with Navy Lark and we are still working through I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again this time in which Lady Constance is hunted like a fox.  Enjoy.

This is a repost of the podcast originally daated November 9 2009.  Special thanks to Julie Anne in Australia who found this error catching up with old episodes and John in England for actually having the episode for us to repost.  We start with the ninth episode of Churchill's Bodyguard entitled Winston's Double.  Then we play some old victrola records before delving in to the Avengers Quick Quick Slow Deaath episode 3 then we play the fourth episode from series 2 of the Navy Lark then conclude with the final episode of The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow.  Pleaase enjoy and remember this is a repost from 2009 so this is pre PDM.

This week our featured play is The Falklands Play from 1986.  It's remarkable that it was censored by BBC at that time.  It has an all star cast of people we've seen many times before including Clive Marison and the lady who play Margaret Thatcher is amazing.  We also have two episodes of The Big Business Lark and we learn about the origins of planets so please settle in for almost three hours as only your friends at brunch can come up with.

This week we conclude Barcester Towers, which means we're putting away the Chronicles for a bit.  I thought it was a good stopping point as we prepare for some Easter brunch in a couple weeks.  We also have two episodes from The Big Business Lark and we learn about the life and death of stars.  

This week it's two episodes of Big Business followed by a look at the sun and we continue with Barcester Towers.  Enjoy.

Technically, this was last week's brunch.  However health deemed it to be otherwise and if you're looking for an explanation it's in the first sixteen minutes of the show.  You also get the usual offerings, plus our time with John Lingard.  It's a lengthy interview, just under two hours.  We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed putting it together.  

This week we return to I'm Sorry I'll JRead That Again.  If you don't like the prunes I'm sorry but we'll be caught up eventually.  We start with Navy Lark and see what happens when Mr. Philiips shows up to an admiralty inspection with the wrong uniform.  In Cosmic Quest Heaather Cooper introduces us to Isaac newton I'm sure we'll talk about those apples with John next week.  Our holiday offering is Paul Theroux's A Christmas Card, enjoy.

This week we cover a lot.  We start with two Navy Lark episodes and they won't dissapoint.  The first asks what sub lt Philips is doing selling sweets from a Portsmouth tabaconist aboard Troutbridge and stealing the chief's customers.  The second deals with what happens when a supposed land mine is found in Portsmouth Harbour.  Then we get to the meat of the episode.  Our cosmic quest deals with gGalileo and is titled Seeing Is Believing.  Because of that I thought it'd be fun to look at Galileo by Berthold Brecht.  So we'll listen to The Life Of Galileo.  Enjoy.  Three hours and thirty minutes.  Hey it's a good oone.  On behalf of Maria and myself please have a happy Thanksgiving and if you're in a part of the world where turkeys lives are pardoned then hhave some covid snacks.  Email us at brunchwiththebrits@gmail.com aand most of all enjoy the pod.

Where do vampires go when they're no longer welcome in Transylvania?  You'll find out if you have the courage to get through our normal offerings.  You see to get through the eppisode to reach our terrors, you must first deal with two episodes of Navy Lark.  We'll first see what Toddhunter Brown is up to helping with the independence of the friendly Kawawan nation, then hear what happens when CPO Pertwy is finally discharged.  Frightening right?  In the midst of that we learn about Mathmatics of the sky and the poetry of Omar Kyam.  Then come with us to India and see where the old count has found himself.  This is a nice companion to our Hammer chat I did with Fred Castaneda of podcast reporter fame.  Enjoy.  It's a long one this week.  

This week we go back if you will and relisten to some Navy Larks where the sound the first time was not the easiest to digest.  We follow that with a look at Ptolomey and conclude with Rumpole and The Discourse of Love.  Enjoy.

We are finally caught up.  This week we'll be dealing with two more episodes of Navy Lark, we'll learn about Greek mathematicians and philosophers and their study of astronomy and Rumpole will deal with an expert witness.  Fun stuff it's here please enjoy.

This week, two coach stories crossed our desk, which we had to share.  The first is from John Lingard, the second from John H Smith of Derbyshire.  Both are quite good and are well deserving of air time.  We begin our regular offerings, with I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again and a tribute from the roaring twenties from 1968 then we learn about stories from the sky in our cosmic quest.  On Troutbridge there's a redundancy drive from October of 1968 and we end with Rumpole and the Show Folk.  Plenty to enjoy so why not settle back whether you're in hot burning California like I am or whether your climes are beginningg a more autumnal routine?  Email us at brunchwiththebrits@gmail.com and as alwaays please enjoy.

Shakespeare once said, “If music be the food of love play on,” and if you love music, you’ll love what we have this week.  First some good news.  I’m not going to talk very much.  It’s because we’ll be listening to “Amadeus,” by Peter Shafer but before we do we’ll be looking at Mozart through some of his best music along with James Nochte from July 2, 2007.  “Amadeus,” is from 2006 and stars Paul Schofield as Salieri and Simon Callow as Mozart.  Please enjoy.  A slight word of warning.  The play does contain some language and scenes that should not be listened to by all.  My friend Scott over in Disney Indiana when he promotes the show says it like this “Keep the little ears covered,” however, this is something they too will appreciate in twenty years.  Enjoy.

To true Brunch listeners John Lingard needs no introduction.  However if your new to the show or you like reaading things about other people we're goiong to give John Lingard an introductin anyway.  In 2009 during one of Matt's many ramblings as usual Matt got something wrong.  A Listener emailed the show to kindly correct Matt on his infality and what do you know?  A friendship struck.  John began appearing annually to discuss the state of Britain every year around the holidays and in 2015 actually flew to America to accompany Matt and Maria to their first NAB convention in Las Vegas.  While Nab has invited them all back they've also increased their prices.  In 2016 John did two wonderful things for the show.  First he co hosted an episode while Matt and Maria were on their honeymoon but he also flew back to America to take part in the long planned wedding of Matt and Maria.  Now it's their turn to fly to England to vissit him.  Oncce Texas is over it's on the trip agenda.  John has kept us pretty current with our shows so Making Of Music the prunes and yes even Earthsearch is back but ... knowing John there may be a few Easter eggs hiding in Brunch Studio UK.  We hope you enjoy and we'll see you next week with full reports from Texas.  Questions or comments for John should go to brunchwitthebrits@gmail.com and we'll make sure he gets them.
