Brilliant!

I’ve never reviewed a podcast before but felt compelled with this one! One things for sure, you don’t have to be a “song and dance man” to find this utterly hilarious!

The relationship between Control (portrayed by Hadley Fraser) and The City of Milton Keynes (Ross Noble) just works perfectly, approaching things from different angles but with so much similarity in their personalities! Hope to see a second series!

Thanks guys for making the last few months of car journeys just fly by, going to miss having Poddin’ on the Ritz as a part of my routine!

Laugh out loud funny

These boys are legends. I missed my train stop as I was so into the ridiculousness!

Aratcl ,

Hilarious!

Some interesting west end/backstage tid-bits wedged between absolute ridiculous joy!
