We try not to get distracted by sandwiches as we talk central packing, funeral catering and, yes, the return of our old Geordie friend in the series finale. PLUS: We discuss playing with audience expectations, the clash of old and new Partridge, and where this series of Oasthouse sits in the APU.

Alan's back in the commentary box this week as we put on our Heavy Thinking Hats and talk nude sleeping, Wogan's wake, coke, groupies, and Falkland penguins. Questions posed: Is Alan a hater? Does commentary work without imagery? Is Alan working his way through the 'phobias? All the haters, see you later, mash your brain like a bag of potaters.
