250 episodes and still going strong! So, how to celebrate? Sequins of course... And a sartorial nod to Winston Churchill. Naturally.

There's not a DL in existence who isn't familiar with Michael Whitehall's keen interest in all things World War II, so there are bound to be related questions from time to time.

When the DL's have a cracking story to tell, The Wittering Whitehalls are all ears. This week, "Mrs Chips" (it's possible this is a pseudonym!) has a hilarious tale from her stint on the school camp, as a dedicated teacher of 7-9 year olds... Not an easy task!
