    Shane Daniel Byrne X Framing Britney Spears

    On episode 6 of Tellybox, Emma and Jen speak to the magnificent Shane Daniel Byrne about his favourite surprising TV show SAS Who Dares Wins. Shane has been entertaining us all throughout the pandemic, and he believes his experiences as a scout leader growing up, and the gruelling years of knot tying and mountain hiking would make him the ideal candidate for future seasons of the show. Shane accounts himself as a reality TV purist, loves anything that is true to life in how the contestants are portrayed, which is why he believes SAS Who Dares Wins is a modern work of art.  On this week's Tellytalks  the girls look at some of the TV shows that you really wish were given a reboot, with listeners suggesting everything from Glenroe to Supermarket Sweep in the mix. Finally Jen and Emma deep dive into the incredible and tragic Framing Britney Spears documentary which got its UK and Ireland release last Tuesday, a few weeks after it initially hit the screens in the US.  Tellybox is proudly sponsored by Just Eat.

    This week on Tellybox, Emma and Jen are joined by their fabulous friend, and drag-queen spectacular Davina Devine, as she speaks about her favourite TV show of all time: Prisoner: Cell Block H.

Finally, Emma and Jen deep-dive into Channel’s 4’s new beautiful and tragic mini-series It’s As Sin, which depicts the stories of three gay friends living through the 80’s Aids epidemic in London, losing those they love around them.

Finally, we look at ITV’s bewilderingly charming new celeb-singing competition The Masked Singer, as the girls discuss how sometimes an idea just that crazy can often work.

    Joanne McNally loves Real Housewives X Old Shows You Can ALWAYS Rely On

    Episode 1 of the podcast was action-packed, as Emma and Jen were joined by the hilarious comedian, writer and podcaster (but not actress) Joanne Mcnally, who was here to discuss her favourite TV programme of all time, The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Trash TV at its absolute best, Joanne dives into what makes the show so scandalous and ultimately hilarious for her and millions of viewers around the world. In the chat, the girls discuss Emma’s upcoming rebrand and boob-job, and how the Kardashian sisters are hiding some big secrets to their own audience.   For the most part during this podcast series, Emma and Jen want to keep things pretty light and keep the jokes flowing, but Netflix had other plans when they decided to release their newest True Crime series 4 days before Tellybox’s first episode.  So in their first new release deep-dive, the girls take a look at Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer, which looks at one of America's most notorious crime sprees based in Los Angeles in 1984.  Tellybox is proudly sponsored by Just Eat.
