Robin is great, Barrett not so much
Giving this 3 stars for Robin’s contributions as one-half of the cohost team. He provides thoughtful, nuanced insights into all aspects of the show. Barrett brings nothing; e.g., “Ross should put that saying on a t-shirt!”. Brilliant. She also went to painstaking lengths to analyze “the most controversial scene” between Ross & Elizabeth - applying every “PC” interpretation possible. Yet in her very next breath, she is ecstatic that Demelza hit Ross and knocked him to the ground. She says, “there was real violence there...it was amazing!” Just imagine if the characters in that scene were reversed. What a double standard! Unfortunately, I cannot keep listening to the podcast. I love the tv show, but Barrett’s vacuous takes are ruining it for me. If I could just fast-forward to Robin’s parts, I would.

Robin Ellis helping with this is the bomb. I fell in love with Ross when I watched Ellis’ version back in 1990. To combine the new and the old makes this so pleasant. Thank you!

Where is Robin Ellis? This podcast is infinitely better with him and enjoyed the old format. I hope this is just a clinch.

Where is Robin Ellis? This podcast is a waste of time now - just a repeat of the Masterpiece podcast.
