Episode 16 - The Wannabe detectives and a shag

Did you vote? Have you had any tweatments? Maybe Botox isn't your friend!  By the way, what's your favourite word for hinting that you're feeling a bit fruity? It's a weird one, and trying to find a less cringy term just makes it even funnier. We look at what's been happening in the news with all the detective dumbasses and Inspector Clueless types creating a Sherlock shitshow on Facebook.  Do you know how easy it is to teach a person English?  Listen to Dunn's really simple idea!
Please, can the 'On Hold' music at doctors' surgeries change to something better? How about giving us a choice of comedians instead of the hideous repetitive tunes with Care navigator's voices of doom telling us our place in the queue?  How the reception staff triage issues like your fanny falling out, and how they are probably more important than a midge bite!

Dunn really needs to stop binge-watching and start engaging more actively – it's not healthy when you can't remember if you've been or not. And let's set the record straight: "SHE DOES NOT SWEAT ON THE TOILET SEAT."
"Pisstified" is our latest WIDL (word I DO like)  but spit isn't! Seriously, who has a perfectly straight pubic hairline like a fringe, elfin cut, or bob?
