SEASON 11 EPISODE 7: RESPONSIBILITY

This week, we’re reading chapters 56-64 of Any Way The Wind Blows by Rainbow Rowell through the theme of responsibility. 

In this section, Simon and Baz go to Ikea. Baz remembers who Philippa is... and has a crisis. He marches straight to Fiona’s for answers... and interrupts her and Nicodemus Petty! Meanwhile, Penny summons Shepard’s demon and undoes the curse with some nifty legal wrangling. They all convene back at Simon’s flat to debrief, and Baz and Simon share some beautifully tender moments.

This is the final part of the Carry On Trilogy - you can check out season 6 for Carry On and season 9 for Wayward Son.

This episode was recorded on 3 September 2023.

Apologies - you will hear kids playing and a dog barking in the background during parts of the recording. Jenn D was solo parenting during recording so things were a bit noisy behind the scenes.
