For your weekend listening pleasure, The Retrospectors recommends this week My Time Capsule.


This is the show that asks it’s guests to choose five things to put in a Time Capsule. They can choose anything from an item, to a memory, a film or even a country. Four of them are things they want to preserve but one is something they want to bury in the ground and never have to think about again.


Their guests have included Stephen Fry, David Mitchell, Caroline Quentin, Ross Noble, Lee Mack, Arabella Weir, Rob Brydon, Dara Ó Briain, Shappi Khorsandi and Barry Cryer.


It’s hosted by the actor and comedian, Mike Fenton Stevens from such shows as Nighty Night, Only Fool and Horses, The Crown, Not Going Out and soon to be in the BBC’s Ghosts and Armando Iannucci's Avenue 5 with Hugh Laurie on HBO.


My Time Capsule is consistently in the top 15 of the Apple Comedy Interviews chart and was recently The Times podcast of the week.


In this episode, Harry Hill chooses 5 items for his time capsule. He’s as brilliantly funny and entertaining as you’d expect but also thoughtful, relaxed and honest in a way you may not have heard before.
