Uber urbane host Nicholas Parsons (Just A Minute) is joined by the ever-eager Robin Ince (Infinite Monkey Cage), bitingly honest Marian Pashley and helpful girl guide Fenella Fudge.

This pilot episode was recorded at the Leicester Square Theatre, London in 2015.

Written & produced by Bruce Guthrie.

BONUS! The Map of Keynsham

What really happened to our much-loved illuminated town map and my childhood sense of place? Looking for it reveals the changes to High Street Britain in the rush for modernity.

For something that is still so loved, no one knows what happened to this illuminated town map and even finding a picture of it proves... illusive.

Part treasure hunt, part social history and part midlife crisis - the Map of Keynsham is all about finding certainty, security and a place to call home.

Listen as the Map takes us around this small West County town:
“Location Please. Where would you like to go today? The Clocktower, Fry’s Factory at Somerdale or the offices of Somerset County Council?”
