Episode Notes HAPPY 60th ANNIVERSARY, DOCTOR WHO! We're back... and it's not about Crime... One year before Jeff Slade parkoured onto the nation's screens, Doctor Who came back from the dead for one night only, as Paul McGann took the keys to the TARDIS. Join us as we try something slightly different - a live (not live) commentary for the TV Movie - one of the most unusual additions to the Who canon, alongside a whole host of anniversary news. Listen, before this planet is pulled inside out and one of us walks through a window. Find out more at https://pressplaypod.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

We're back!... but Crime Traveller won't be... Join us in this special bumper edition as we bid a fond farewell to a series which has consumed our lives for nearly five years. When an old flame comes back into the picture, Jeff is jealous, Holly is heartless and Morris is a moron. Can Ant and Nic Press Stop? Find out as we call TIME on Crime Traveller!...

Just before our final episode on Crime Traveller, Nic talks to Mark Rawlins; co-host of fantastic Doctor Who podcasts "Two Watch Who" and "Finish Big" about his love of the show. In this chat, Mark talks about the Doctor Who wilderness years of the 1990s, fan conventions, being a fan of Crime Traveller during its original run, and his thoughts on a hypothetical second series...

You're luck's in! We reach the zenith of the series a little late, considering this is the penultimate episode. Slade has numbers (as well as sparkling wine) on the brain, but pays the price for being in two places at once when a £3 million stash of gold is stolen on Grisham's watch... oops! Will Holly ever pick up the phone? Will Nicky die as a result of Slade's meddling? What kind of mobile phone is that? Answers and more, in the thrilling installment of Ant and Nic Press Pla...

We return to the world of Crime Traveller with a bang AND a whimper. Slade manages to shed his yellow jacket no less than three times, Holly turns detective/torturer and Morris is seeing double as he heads up his own AC12-style investigation. And what's the story behind the mysterious Police Box?.. Find out this and more, as Ant and NIc fire up the VCR and press play on... Yes, Minister...

Episode Notes We're back with the second part of our (probably) world first discussion of the ironically impossible to see 1997 ITV drama "The Vanishing Man". We talk London landmarks, condensation, and harebrained schemes, and take a peak at Nic's ever-growing Vanishing Man archive... Check out the fantastic Neil Morrissey interview here: https://play.acast.com/s/twoshotpod/-tsp002-neilmorrissey Find out more at https://pressplaypod.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Back in 1997, between Crime Traveller episodes five and six, another Anthony Horowitz drama appeared on ITV. Starring Neil Morrissey, Lucy Akhurst, Mark Womack and Barbara Flynn, it told the story of a falsely imprisoned pilot who is subjected to secret medical experimentation... but Neil Morrissey's character wasn't the only one to disappear... Nearly a quarter of a century later, very little seems to exist. Is it a conspiracy? Will anyone be able to watch along? In what is surely a podcast world first, we discuss at length the pilot of "The Vanishing Man"... Find out more at https://pressplaypod.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

The banana doesn't fall far from the tree in the Slade family it seems. Must be in the jeans... Jeff finds history repeating itself, and so do we as we talk about episode five of Crime Traveller for the third time. Slade Sr. puts in an appearance, Morris does acrobatics worthy of Cirque du Soleil and Holly adds diamond expert to her long list of duties... What gems can we possible glean from our millionth viewing of this episode? Find out in this thrilling episode of "Ant and Nic Fail To Record Properly".

If only we could travel back to the start of the year and start again, eh? This... erm... special lockdown edition of the podcast sees Jeff trying to socially distance from the man who is destined to shoot him, a delightful chap called John Crowley. Is Jeff's fate sealed, or can Holly save the day. No... she makes everything ten times worse. Spoilers.

We're back with a look at the third episode of Crime Traveller, (Jeff Slade and the) Fashion Shoot. Holly swaps her time machine for a sewing machine and Jeff plays with fire... in more ways than one. There's also a missing digital audio tape, but DAT's another story. So sit back, tip out a mug of pens and pencil shavings, fill it with beer and let Ant and Nic take you back to 1997...
