This week Sam, Kris, Jenn, and Mr Rob Bollix bring their respective levels of alertness and excitiment to The Rereat. Sam has a swag of fresh records to play, and a good time was (of course) had by all. Sports news @5, Emmerdale @6, keys in the bowl the whole time.
No Sam this week, but Kris, Jenn, and Rob hold it down, playing you a selection of music new and old from around the world. Everyone is feeling a little tired, which somehow lends the show a sense of hysterical professionalism.
Rob covers a jam-packed sports segment, and follows it up with the always popular Emmerdale review.

To prevent the Emmerdale review from becoming Kim Tate reveiw (the most hated character in English television), this week Rob runs us down on the Sharma family's chocolate factory fiasco, scream-ups at the pub, and just a little bit of KT news.
In this edition of Emmerdale, Rob fills us in on the chaos being caused in the wake of Kim Tate's return to the village and the return of Joe (from the dead!).
In this edition of the Emmerdale review we talk maternal kidnapping, breaking the Dingle code, and the return from prison of the most hated character in UK television.
In this edition of the critically acclaimed Emmerdale review Rob describes an exciting road trip in which multiple characters end up in the beautiful city of Belfast, birthplace of the Titanic. In Belfast, Marlon and Paddy confront Paddy's father Bear-Wolf in a pub, before moving into a having a really great chat about pies.
In this episode of the highly acclaimed Emmerdale review, Mr. Rob Bollox fills us in on the outcome of Paddy's DNA test and some agricultural misadventures featuring hangovers and farmyard machinary
