This week, things get deliciously nostalgic as the gang dives headfirst into the sacred institution that is the British chippy.

From the surprisingly ancient origins of fish and chips (spoiler: not Blackpool) to fiercely defended opinions on what does and does not qualify as a "proper" chip shop—this one gets serious. Briefly.

Expect passionate debates about menus that are too long, the tragedy of disappearing pickled eggs, and why fish and chips should never—ever—be ordered on a delivery app.

There's also talk of chip butty technique (yes, it's an art), choosing your "final chip," and the simple joy of burning your fingers while walking home on a cold night.

Along the way, we somehow detour into Elvis, novelty records, champagne-fuelled seaside romance, and a billionaire who committed the unforgivable sin of rejecting a perfectly good cod and chips.

It's warm, salty, slightly chaotic—and guaranteed to leave you craving a chippy tea.

As always: vinegar optional, strong opinions mandatory.
