Weird Antarctica with Ellie Gibson
Brrr! It’s chilly at the South Pole! The boys are joined by comedian & videogame sage Ellie Gibson (Scummy Mummies, Go 8-bit), who takes us on a guided tour of Antarctica in all its creepy splendour. And then Alasdair takes us on a quick tour of the Arctic, for a very good reason that is absolutely not a clerical error.
With penguin hi-jinks, Lord Franklin’s passage and Ernest Shackleton’s indispensable banjo player, this ep is so cool it’s sub-zero. Plus, it really felt like there was a fourth presenter, silently following us across the Antarctic* tundra…
*Or was it the Arctic?
