Twits
In Collings & Herrin Podcast Number 33, we cut a languid, mid-afternoon swathe through Alistair Darling's £500bn TV-screen bailout, the nude "twit" on the wall of the Japanese emperor's palace [pictured], Polly the tortoise in Bristol Zoo with the "stretchy bandage" [also pictured], Lily Cole's alien face and translucent alien skin, Johnny Rotten's butter-based betrayal of everything we fought for, and Google's lunch policy. Richard was all tired.

A Wednesday podcast is a nice surprise. A few of my subscribed podcasts come on a Friday so nice to get a midweek boost.
I've just been reduced to giggles by your ridiculous discussion of which types of eggs are which sizes. I think that means I'm tired and should go to bed.
Ooh, like as with the above poster this is a nice surprise!
Many thanks and keep up the good work. :)
Andy you look like a naughty schoolboy holding up the photo of that bare-bottomed bounder.
not wanting to be pedantic but Woody Allen never adopted her, Andre Previn did.
Ah, cool!
I don't know if this is possible, but I prefer the podcasts coming out on Wednesday/Thursday too.
Friday seems to be 'podcast day' for everyone - maybe putting yourself mid-week would help seperate yourselves from the crowd = more listeners.
Then again, you couldn't mock John Guant any more so maybe not.
(Henri Matisse had a small bushy beard)
Thanks for the familial detail re: Woody Allen, Keir. And to Anonymous for the superb Matisse clue (never thought to look up a pic of the man himself). We've stopped mocking Jon Gaunt, Max!
Hi Andrew
Yes, lovely surprise when I went online last night. Nice to get it mid week, am about 15 mins or so in, had to stifle many a giggle this morning on my way in to work. Find the good old pretending to yawn/cough usually does the trick.
Have been listening to the podcasts since week 1 and am actually coming to see a couple of recordings of Not Going Out in the next couple of weeks. Might you be loitering in the background somewhere?
Enjoy the Not Going Out recordings, Helen. They're always fun, as Lee and Tim are good value between takes. I won't be there, lurking, as I have had less to do with this series due to other commitments. You might be seeing one of mine, I don't know. I went to the first series recordings as I had co-written every episode. The way we work has changed since then, so I feel less "ownership", if you see what I mean? And Teddington is a long way.
A great podcast - the funniest one yet in my opinion! Not least because you both had me guffawing at Bristol Temple Meads train station this afternoon with your tortoise-talk, so much so in fact that people were staring at me as if I were mad.
indeed Johnny In the Jungle did say that c-word live on air when told that he hadn't been voted out by the public. To much merriement and the Geordie lkads apoogising through giggles.
He's said he's done the ad just to pee off 'the sad punks in Camden who think its still 1977'. Although the cash might have swung it
His appearance on 'Judge Judy' is on youtube and is well worth a look for all its grandstanding madness.
it was Samuel Pepys who had the kidney stone removed not John Evelyn
It was John Evelyn in the article I read that morning in the Guardian - they may have been wrong, but I think it's pretty likely that it happened to them both.
Diarists and kidney stones went hand in hand in the 17th century.
For future podcasts, may I point Mr Herring in the direction of Fentinmans' Ginger Beer. I'm not normally a huge Ginger Beer fan, but their is delicious. Also good is their cola.
I think Evelyn wrote about the operation and Pepys was under the knife and the guardian is a little confused..
