We are the podcast that takes a TV show completely out of context and picks it apart. We pick a random episode from a series that neither of us have ever seen before and discuss what we think it'll be like. Then we watch the episode separately and get back together to discuss what we thought of it. Usually with wine! Contact us via email at [email protected] Follow us on social media!

Episode Twenty Three - The Night Shift

August 03, 2020 08:00 - 55 minutes - 38.4 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching The Night Shift.  Wildly popular with children and adults alike, the night shift follows the lives of nocturnal animals in cartoon form. Oliver the owl, Finnegan the fox, and Hannah the hedgehog teach us how they see, manoeuvre and hunt in the dark. It’s surprisingly graphic for an educational cartoon, but somehow retains its childlike innocence.  Of course it’s not. This is actually the tv series set during the night shift of a hospital tha...

Episode Twenty Two - Extra - Shame Space - Dark

Welcome to our weekly shame space! Our moment to address all the stupid things we said in our previous episode. We hope you enjoy our corrections and explanations for Dark. 

Episode Twenty Two - Dark

July 27, 2020 08:00 - 1 hour - 42.6 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Dark.  This tv show is woefully under appreciated and has flown under the radar for far too long. Groundbreaking at the time of release (and possibly even now), it was written for, and by, the blind community. As a result, the image you see as a person with sight viewing this show is of a blank, dark screen. Many say that it could have been released as a radio programme, but we think it’s brilliant.  Of course it’s not. Although it’s not out...

Episode Twenty One - Delicious

July 20, 2020 08:00 - 52 minutes - 36.2 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Delicious!  Delicious tells the compelling yet tragic story of the fictitious  cannibal who discovered that his own body was unbelievably tasty. Inspired by Van Gogh, his slow descent into food based madness started with a nibble of an ear. The show charts his journey from discovery of his own tastiness, through his struggle to not consume himself, to his eventual demise in an accidental chip pan fire attempting to deep fry his last remaining...

Episode Twenty - Penny Dreadful

July 13, 2020 08:00 - 1 hour - 43.2 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Penny Dreadful.  A much loved, but often overlooked, satirical look at the life of misshapen coins from the royal mint. Centred around the eponymous protagonist (a rather dreadfully shaped penny) it follows her journey alongside the equally misshapen shilling and guinea.  We’re pulling your proverbial leg of course. This is in fact the tv series in part based on characters from gothic novels that ran from 2014-2016 We hope you enjoy our con...

Episode Nineteen - Elite

July 06, 2020 08:00 - 53 minutes - 37 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Elite. Ah yes, the hilarious satirical show following a group of Etonians in three year increments. From their first days in oversized school uniform to their inevitable ascent into the highest echelons of society and power.  Of course it isn’t. It’s clearly the tv series set at a fictional private school in Spain, following the lives of the (possibly equally privileged) students. We hope you enjoy our confused ramblings about Elite, series...

Episode Eighteen - Extra - Shame Space - Dark Matter

July 05, 2020 08:00 - 11 minutes - 8.04 MB

Episode Eighteen - Dark Matter

June 29, 2020 08:00 - 51 minutes - 35.3 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Dark Matter.  That’s right! The seminal tv series about, and for dark matter. Unfortunately for us mere mortals,  dark matter cannot be seen directly, even though it accounts for about 85% of all universal matter. That does make the show a little dull, and it resembles a blank screen when viewed by humans.  Of course we’re pulling your leg. We actually watched the tv series about six people trying to regain their memories in the 27th century...

Episode Seventeen - Chuck

June 22, 2020 08:00 - 39 minutes - 27 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Chuck.  Finally! An answer in tv series form to the age old question, “How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?” Turns out, 139. Woodchucks are surprisingly versatile creatures and should definitely be involved in the Highland games.  We may have entirely lost the plot during lockdown. This is of course the tv show about a hapless geek turned spy.  We hope you enjoy our confused conversations about Chuck, seri...

We’re just being silly now.

Episode Fifteen - Justified

June 08, 2020 08:00 - 58 minutes - 40.3 MB

This week on Random Telly Vision, we’re watching Justified!  Another reality tv courtroom show?! One where the defendants have to justify their actions in front of a jury of their victims friends and family?! Of course not. This is actually the show starring “50 gallons of man in a ten gallon hat” Timothy Olyphant. Shout out to the Good Place for that exquisite description!  We hope you enjoy our rambling conversations about Justified, series 2, episode 4.

This week on Random Telly Vision we are watching The Librarians. Shhhhhhh! This is a library! We’ll have no trouble here. Now that you’re all quiet, we can explain that this is in fact a tv show about a magical library that somehow protects the human race and it’s knowledge. Who knew the Dewey decimal system was so powerful. We hope you enjoy our particularly confused conversations about The Librarians, series 4, episode 1.
