The kids are in bed and most of the decent films have finished, so it's time to flip the channel and turn the volume down as Ash & Luke tackle the bulging sack of goodies that is the Eurotrash Season Finale/Christmas Special/New Years Special from December 29th 1995.


It's got everything that made Eurotrash great: the double act of Antoine de Caunes and Jean-Paul Gaultier, weird music, swingers, scatological humour, Pipi and Popo... it also has the Romeo Cleaners. 


We also take a look at what else was showing on the 29th of December 1995, and discover that a lot of the schedulers must drink in the same pub. Join us, won't you?

]]> Emily Taylor fat shames Captain Dynamo, the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 tournament continues on Chemical Plant Zone with Paul Mellerick from Mega and Dean Mortluck from Sega Power, and poor Ben McClusky gets battered by Aston Villa's Tony Daley on Striker.


GamesMaster helps struggling gamers on Populous and The Legend of Zelda 3: Link to the Past (but not Streets of Rage 2), Ash gets mad at Les Gray's explanation of what CD-ROM is, and it's a special Review Zone this week as Nick Watfee, Dougie Johns and Tom Boone look at the highly anticipated release of Starwing.

That show would become Games World, a 5-night-a-week extravaganza of challenges, cheats, reviews and Videators. In this special bonus episode, Luke and Ash review the first episode of Games World - The Eliminator - which sees challenges on Cash Dash, Super SWIV, Pilotwings, and Sonic the Hedgehog 2.


Plus we speak to one of the show's researchers Rik Henderson, who would not only become an on-screen Videator, but also the lead producer for the revival fourth season. Follow Rik Henderson on Twitter.


And speaking of that fourth season, we speak with Larry Bundy Jr. once again to talk about his experiences being a contestent on Games World - and getting screwed on 1080 Snowboarding. Follow Larry on Twitter and YouTube.

Released in December 1992, GamesMaster would run for an impressive 25 years, ending recently in October 2018.


In this bonus episode, Luke and Ash dive into the first issue of the magazine - with news on Street Fighter II on the MegaDrive, Sonic the Hedgehog tearing up the music charts, and the launch of the 3DO! There's previews of Mr. Nutz, James Pond 3: Operation Starfish and Wing Commander on SNES, along with big reviews of The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare, Micro Machines, and *that* review of Sonic the Hedgehog 2. All that and Dominik Diamond's big purple column! It's a lot to get to grips with!

Not only that, but we speak with Duncan Willis to talk about his memories of reviewing Sim City and KGB, and why there wasn't a third review in the episode.
