Morrissey's right-hand man for three decades, Boz Boorer, shares a drink with Chris and George.

The ten-question trivia quiz returns (with top-notch sound effects), Nanny Val reacts to 'Spent The Day in Bed' and we dissect the lyrics of three songs that Boz has played a big part in.

A big coup for Chris and George as they interview an old friend of Morrissey's about what it was like to know him as a mate. Moz also covered one of his songs which was a huge compliment. Nanny Val returns to react to a song. This time it's 'Let Me Kiss You'. She's becoming quite a fan. The quiz returns to sort the die-hard obsessives from the fair-weather apostles. Can you beat George's score? It might not be too hard. We dissect the meanings of three Morrissey tracks: Maladjusted, All The Lazy Dykes and A Swallow On My Neck. There's also plenty of news from the world of Morrissey and The Smiths. Plus copious amounts of wine. Want to get in touch? Send an email to themorrisseymercury@gmail.com. We'll read it when we've recovered from our hangovers.

Daniel from Boston, USA, along with his friend Paul, has one of the world's biggest collections of Smiths memorabilia. He lets George and Chris inside his treasure chest and tells us the stories behind his most prized artefacts. Nanny Val reacts to 'Ouija Board, Ouija Board' and reveals her own real-life tale of contacting the dead. We dissect the meanings of three Morrissey/Smiths tracks and the quiz makes a welcome return.
