Brain Cigar

7: Cigaro del Chreestmas!!

Brain Cigar's rampant little elves (okay, Pete and Jez) have rummaged through a stocking full of festive goodness to dish up a bumper Christmas pud-cast generously-stuffed with plum content, sage thoughts and no shortage of old chestnuts. And a gull. Sewn into Peter's guts. (Some assembly required.) An Ambulenz production, featuring Julia Davis and Robert Chase. Produced by Francis Jones.

6. You Can Have the Full Works with Archie the Skeleton from the Scotch Videotape Ads

In this final podcast of the series, Pete recounts his wife's visit to a Romanian theme park dedicated to the delights of TV sitcom Birds of a Feather, while a vengeful Welsh funeral critic uses the slot to hurl abuse at his former lover. The return of Jez's Audience-Heat-Seeking Robot spells trouble for Pete and his Irish terrier Chara... Featuring Maggie Rowe and Robert Chase.

5. Never Forget: The Terrible Events of the 18th of August

Peter and Jez pay respectful tribute on this most traumatic of days while remembering a BBC cartoon series starring Slash from Guns n' Roses as a dog. A brash New York funeral reviewer rubs Peter up the wrong way. Jez tells the freakish tale of how Naturally-Occurring Music entered our lives and nearly killed an airline passenger… Featuring Julia Davis.

4. Pelting Frank Bough with some Bakewell tarts

Jez tells the harrowing tale of when Jack Nicholson called Action Man “a little bitch” on live children’s TV; a guest reveals that she’s pledged to pay for cripplingly expensive treatment of her sister’s eye disorder with money raised from ‘new inventions’ such as contactless payment and an automated cat feeder; Peter and Jez discuss their shared babysitting arrangements for a long-deceased Archbishop of Canterbury. With Julia Davis and Robert Chase.

3. The Anatomy and Bodily Functions of Thomas the Tank Engine (and Friends)

Jez gets terrible news about the first six Brain Cigar episodes;  a restaurateur offers discounts to anyone he's poisoned - if this can be proven via his horrifying in-kitchen laboratory; and Peter is appalled at Reverend Audrey’s long-forgotten ‘Thomas’ medical manual, detailing the lovable locomotive’s digestive organs and a cross-section of his uterus containing a train foetus... Featuring Robert Chase.
