Episode Description

Taking a break from the great coconut shy of life, magazine editor Andy Lyons, writer Harry Pearson and host Daniel Gray continue with new-ish feature Backward Glance, in which a Random Issue Generator picks out an old copy of WSC magazine from the archives for them to chat about. This time, Issue 198 from August 2003 pops up to spark discussion about unknown Russian businessman Roman Abramovich’s arrival at Chelsea, Carlton Palmer’s dream of taking Gazza to Stockport, a Richard Wright loft injury, the Dell’s Chocolate Boxes and much more. Further, magazine Deputy Editor Ffion Thomas previews WSC issue 453 and Record Breakers brings us an Arminia anthem.
