Promises Mean Nothing to a Woman

Attach the series to a jersey and lift it to the rafters, as there is a brand new Chief in town and she's leading the UK's worst-performing police force...and also Cleveland. Over the last three weeks, three people working on bridging the North-South divide - Michael, Anthony & Michelle have returned to recap the hunt for eleven new fugitives who are spread out all over the UK in a quest to escape capture and win a share of £100,000 - concluding with the final two episodes, capture of Abi, Grace & James and escape of Nathan & Sarah.
In this episode - we discuss our respective weeks for once, Michael hates to be smug, we draw attention to friend of the podcast Rob's video, a Hunter does an AMA, some monkeying with the timeline is finally spotted, the answer to a query we had last week is given (by a fugitive!), Michelle learns about onion rings, Anthony is disappointed when someone gets a confessional, we go behind the curtain to reveal how the radio interviews work, history repeats itself for Karl, Michelle has questions about the Angel of the North, there's a big old First World Problem, the public get a rare bit of praise, the editors forget to disguise the Overt Agent, there's a live rewatch as Michelle needs to hear an insult, Anthony loses touch with the common man (must be very nice), Michael explains how the Hunters got a boat, we reveal the rule for extraction, there's some insider information about what Nathan may have done with his share of the winnings, we debate if there's a chance we'll be covering Hunted Australia and Michelle is asked to say something nice for once about the Chief.

The Passing of the Baton

There is a brand new Chief in town, and she's leading the UK's worst-performing police force...and also Cleveland. Over the next three weeks (I know, blame Channel 4...), three people who are nakedly antagonistic - Michael, Anthony & Michelle return to recap the hunt for eleven new fugitives who are spread out all over the UK in a quest to escape capture and win a share of £100,000 - beginning with the first two episodes and capture of Elinor & Meurig.
In this episode - Michelle is excitable, Michael has a small problem with Channel 4 (made worse by finding out it's two episodes a week all series after we recorded this!), we lay down the ground rules of talking about the new Chief, we try and work out why it's only a 23-day Hunt, Lisa shows that she's been hanging around Dr Steve Hersee too long already, we wonder if there's been a deliberate tonal shift in HQ, someone's appearances get limited because of us, Meurig & Elinor get trafficked, Anthony creates a new rule, Michelle learns some new slang, our favourite Hunter gets a promotion, Anthony gives us a quick bout of trivia, a new Hunter uses up his free go, the weather betrays a cliffhanger, another favourite NPC is crowned, we learn the difference between urban exploring and delinquency, the editors get a bit of praise for doing a cute joke rather than showing us testicles, the Searching Debbie's House scene is confusing, we try and guess who's getting caught next, Michael wonders where the wanted posters were and we guess who will win.

The Manu with the Golden Gun

Spend your time thinking of four-letter words, as we are back for De Mol België's tenth season! Over these nine episodes, two guys who are always smiling in the background - Logan & Michael - are trying to avoid barking up the wrong tree and falling for Papa Bear's dastardly tricks and traps, aiming to answer that one elusive question - who the newest Mole is in this season set in the Canary Islands, continuing with the fifth episode and elimination of Bert!
