Where are the Cotswolds? Well, Mr Whitehall has a pretty good idea of where ISN'T the Cotswolds... More on that later. Plus, the Cybertruck, more initialisms and the trouble with football commentators.

It's time to test the emoji knowledge of two octogenarian men... Roll up, roll up! Mrs Whitehall, inspired by a curious DL, is going to quiz Michael and Neil to see whether they have any hope of decoding such a complex, modern language.

It's awkward, isn't it? You've yawned, you've cleared the plates, but the guests still aren't leaving. How would Mr & Mrs Whitehall deal with someone who just wasn't getting the message?

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. Plus, who taught the Whitehall boys to shave and is there anything you used to believe, that you've since changed your mind o...

This weeks life lesson is for DL Helen who is off on a cruise... But she's suddenly become nervous about the idea! Don't worry, Helen. You'll be fine!

The Whitehalls have been all over the place this week. The West Country has been well and truly explored and they've got the souvenirs to prove it. Plus, an unfortunate interaction with the neighbours for an embarrassed DL and a local councillor from Cornwall.

Could we ever, in this lifetime, see a musical incarnation of The Wittering Whitehalls? A DL asks exactly that question. Plus, is there an answer to the 'dear listeners' / 'dear watchers' question and a DL from a little further up the tow path of the river thames.

The DL's are nothing if not resourceful. This week, a DL shares an invention called 'dust of the garden'. What on earth can it be?

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!

DL Kody describes some previous advice from Mrs Whitehall as "wading in, handbag first" in this episode. What a delightful turn of phrase! Plus, a lovely idea for childhood keepsakes and can Mr Whitehall possibly recommend just ONE book about Sir Winston Churchill?
