    In this episode we are covering what to look out for on the nation's favourite archive tv and movie channel in the second half of November running into the first half of December.

    We have a classic Christmas ghost story from the legendary MR James, mysterious lakeside neighbours, the return of King Kong as he is miraculously brought back from the dead, and prehistoric women from the planet Venus. How about that eh? You’d never get that that lot on the iPlayer.

    There’s Angela Lansbury and Worzel Gummidge , plus Mel will be along with a very special interview with Kate Garner the daughter of the much missed Chas Hodges, one half of the wonderful duo, Chas and Dave, to chat about her new show.
