British Zombies
The dead do not rest easy – not if they’ve been on the Buckfast, at least. Treat yourself to a buffet of British walking deads / shufflers / deadites / whatever you want to call ’em. From a finger-nibbling zombie in Buckfastleigh to a double-deadbeat husband in Buckinghamshire, this episode is a vintage Jimmy Shakes grab-bag.
It seems that what you do in life DOES continue in the afterlife. Especially if what you did was be chased by hounds or bother local maidens / livestock.
So crack open a Buckie (not obligatory) and enjoy!
Come see us in Oxford on the 1st July 2026
