Series 1 episode 4 of The Good Life: Pig’s Lib.Tom & Barbara test Margot’s patience by adding to their ever growing mini farm in their garden with, you guessed it, pigs.With a fraction of the recording cut off that can only be described as ‘the good half’ the boys find humour in unknown places.A prequel to the huge-faced Confessions of a Window Cleaner (not that Wood would know, he’s too busy watching Red Shoe diaries) this episode raises the question no asked ‘does naming your cow produce more milk’. It also asks the question no one expected - what the fuck are ‘pig eggs’?Oh yeah, Mark stands by his claim that they’re making Poitín. He has zero evidence.Play along with this weeks One Foot in The Game - Kendal, Keith or Kendrick (Lamar). www.greatbritishshitcom.comTwitter / Instagram / Facebook@britishshitcom / #shitcom Send in a voice message:https://anchor.fm/shitcom/message
