I can’t believe we are here, the final episode of Season 3 of Tom Read Wilson has words with…Joining me, is Countdown’s Susie Dent, for the ultimate ‘word-off’.This episode is a little different to the norm, as we share the same etymological passion, it was only right that we dive into some trickier words, phrases and groups of words to get your brain cells buzzing.If you’ve only just found me, do take a listen to the wealth of knowledge stored in Seasons 1, 2 and now 3.I’ll be back soon! But in the meantime… OODLES of love x Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
