It wasn't meant to be like this. We didn't rent a 14th Century church just so we could get wrecked on tequila, and fail to tell ghost stories (at least, not without going off at wild tangents). And yet... that's what we did, and that is what you are getting. Before everyone else, natch.

Hello, gang.
Here's a two-part exclusive for you top tier chums. This is a) Very different to our usual videos, and b) The consequence of being too exhausted after a day UFO hunting to film the video we intended to film. We were going to do a full-on ghost hunt in the amazing church we'd re...

Yes, I'm a bit grumpy this week, and Sanja has had too much coffee. We conclude our delve into your Radiation letters, discuss what went wrong in the 90s for Marillion, debate Coldplay's attempts to go prog, and finally manage to define what cool is. Or what's uncool, at least.

Hi BYAMPODDERS. Here's next week's episode for you. This... was a tricky one. What started out as a regular postbag episode become something far more enflamed with passion, when a few old wounds got reopened.
I'll be honest - and tell you lot this, but nobody else - it's one of the fe...

In something of a grab-bag of an episode, this week we cover the late-90s period of Marillion's history, where we got more new releases than ever before... Llive albums! Remix albums! Remasters!
Plus we make a case for Unplugged At The Walls as their best live album ever, and discuss ...

Next week's episode should be with you very shortly.
I've been mulling this over for months now, and... we're considering doing a second series of Digitiser The Show.
Keep it to yourself. I just wanted to get some thoughts down for now.
Most of you know that both Sanja and I found the experience of doing the first series fairly aw...

This ep, we go through Marillion's 1998 album Radiation, track-by-track. Probably singer Steve Hogarth's most starkly personal album to this point, it proves to be uncomfortable listening in places; for both good and bad!

In this bonus instalment of Between You And Me, Sanja and I discuss Marillion entering the final stages of recording their new album, and take five minutes before we even so much as mention the band. Much of which is spent chasing a fly around the room. Exciting real-time fly hunting!
