Been a heck of a year, hasn't it? What with all these famous folk exiting the planet in seemingly huge numbers. So, to catch up on things, the lads pay tribute to the fallen, in what we'd like to describe as a "touching, thoughtful" episode, but what is in reality the usual abject nonsense - only this time, about corpses, really. With some corpsing at the end. Twitter! @iancollinsuk and @sideshow_kev
