  • Question Time special: When Victor got it wrong (a debate)
    Was Victor Meldrew completely faultless in life? Could he have executed things differently when going full throttle in his pursuit to fight against the crappy things faced in society? My good mate, Dan 'the beefcake' Heath (nickname not verified) debated with me on as many Victor scenarios as we could think of. Please get in touch! onefootinthepodcast@gmail.com Follow me on Twitter and join the Facebook group page.
  • Director/Producer: Susie Belbin
    One of the best conversations I've had on the podcast. Susie Belbin was a producer/director for a whole host of shows, including: One Foot in the Grave (S1-S5) Jonathan Creek Are you being Served? Bread Hi-de-Hi! 'Allo! 'Allo! It Ain't Half Hot Mum Only Fools and Horses (S4) She also worked with Morecambe and Wise. Her CV is impressive and her experience, knowledge and pioneering ways of directing was all to see. A huge thank you to Susie for speaking to me and treating you fans of British comedy.
  • The Manchester collective
    Hallo! All 3 of my guests are from the Manchester area. We met up a few weeks ago for lunch and a One Foot chinwag. Consider this pod a debrief of that. It's a longy - so, plan that long distance travel or dog walk well.
  • Richard Webber - The Pod legend!
    Remember all those times I and other listeners would reference "the Webber book" which became my trusted bible? Well, a great coup was had by the pod with having the man himself on for a chinwag about his marvellous book 'The Complete One Foot in the Grave'.
  • The Easter Special
    It's Easter - why not? Joining me is friend and fellow podder, Si Smith of the Men Behaving Badly podcast 'Don't Forget Your Goodbye Gherkins' & co-host of The 3 Comidos. A couple of quizzes, a 'where are they now' chat and a discussion on who we'd cast in One Foot in the Grave if it were to make a return. Thanks for downloading.
  • Only Fools convention with Sir David Jason - my thoughts (tiny bit of One Foot speak)
    I attended the Only Fools and Horses convention and met the legend that is Sir David Jason. At long last! I speak my thoughts on the drive home.
  • The Wisdom of the absolute b**ch - A Christmas revist
    One Foot in the Podcast outro music creator, Anthony Satterthwaite chinwags with me about 'Wisdom of the Witch' - which the alternative title given would suggest we get quite iritated with the person responsible for Victor nearly being killed. I mean, he is eventually killed but had Renwick had other ideas, we'd have been starved of 2 more specials and a final series. Merry Christmas. Tom Griff 
  • **Jonathan Kydd** - A.K.A Chippy Joe / Market Stall Geezer
    He was supposed to turn up on the pod for the usual Sunday slot, but alas, he arrived Wednesday! So, in the spirit of Chippy Joe, this pod is being released on a Wednesday. Jonathan Kydd was so easy to natter with and a man of many talents. Thank you for downloading.
  • An unplanned ramble (part 2 of 2)
    Part 2 of the unplanned ramble. A cheeky couple of games mid way through for you to play along.
  • An unplanned ramble (part 1 of 2)
    Hello and welcome. Pod regulars, Si and Dazza join me to quite simply, keep me company. It's just us talking. Mainly about comedy. I hope it inspires....someone? It won't, but we had great fun.
  • Doreen Mantle - A eulogy and farewell
    Doreen Mantle, aged 97, has sadly passed away as announced today by her agent. Si, Darren and I pay tribute to one of the comedy greats in TV sitcom history. We loved Mrs. Warboys, but she will live on in the One Foot in the Grave universe forever more.
  • A live pod opposite Victor's house
    This has got to be a first, but I recorded and uploaded a podcast outside of Victor Meldrew's house. Just a short and sweet live transmission of my thoughts on the show whilst I holiday in the Poole area.
  • Fun & Games with Christchurch resident Jen!
    I'm podding with Jen, a resident in the Christchurch area. Which was the only excuse I needed to do some podding once again. We have a general One Foot natter, chucked in a quiz, a quick-fire round and a Desert Island Discs special.
