McVitie’s, are you and Jaffa okay? This week, Tom and Rob put Jaffa Cookies, Club Mint Digestives and white Hobnobs through the Snack Sack. There are high hopes, missing flavours and a level of biscuit disappointment that feels deeply personal.
Rob celebrates another birthday with a box of Maltesers, while our non-BBC-affiliated Question Time tackles envelope licking, what every modern cinema needs and whether schools should keep the junk modelling they send home with our kids.
Do You Remember takes us back to handwritten Game Boy level codes and knowing phone numbers off by heart. Then it’s your turn to play along: can you identify ten children’s and family TV theme tunes played backwards?
Finally, the Smurfs take on The Prodigy’s “Firestarter” in Was It Best Left in the 90s? What could possibly go wrong?

They kept Firestarter. Was that the right call?
