Summary

For this episode we're joined by comedy duo Steve McNeil and Sam Pamphilon. They're the creators of hit TV show Dara O Briain's Go 8 Bit, which also stars our very own Ellie Gibson!

We discover how they became a double act, how the show came into being, and which celebrity guests have been their favourite. Ellie tells a hilarious showbiz anecdote about the time she had a row with Gregg Wallace about crisps.

Then it's time for some Dad Chat. Sam explains why children are like Macbooks, and Steve reveals the advice he'd give to his pre-kids self. We find out how well McNeil and Pamphilon know each other with a game of Mr and Mr, and finish up with some Scummy Mummy Confessions.
