Scrolls Ch 5: Fishfingers and Custard
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 6 minutes and 15 secondsWith 'consumate professionalism' the team finally hit their stride. No silliness or smut here, no sirree. Ahem. The subject up for grabs is pinpointing some of the more off the wall books that work in unexpected ways. Between the earnest reviews we cruelly cause Gilbert and Sullivan turn in their graves, find room for both scarecrows and tin-men (though sadly no lions or yappy-type dogs), the QI awooga makes its Scrolls debut and the Waltons are revealed to be a little more back-woodsy than were previously suspected.
If you enjoy listening to it half as much as we did recording it you'll have a ball.

Scrolls Chapter Four - Kick-arse Babes
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 8 minutes and 48 seconds
This episode the team takes a look at the various ways women have been represented in fantasy, sci-fi and horror.
Touching on themes of independence, the power of sexuality, roles in fictional societies and how we identify with the characters, we skate a meandering path across the surface of this vast topic.
Books mentioned include... She, Monstrous Regement, Lord Of The Rings, The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness, Audition, Dead Until Dark, Carmilla, Revelation Space, Heaven's Net Is Wide.
Amongst the chin-stroking and cod intellectual comments we learn a valuable lesson concerning the consumption of beer and ice-cream, fail utterly to mention Ursula LeGuin (doh!) or Angela Carter (double-doh!), and continue our tradition of mis-remembering key plot points.
Dion is calling from the moon, so please excuse his sound quality.
By the way, does anyone know where Mattie is?
He's got big soft eyes, fluffy ears and a bald fat head. There's PS5 reward if returned unmolested.
