"I'm as sick as a dog!"

A listener tells Sean he was as sick as a dog at the weekend.

"What's the origin of the saying, 'I'm as sick as dog?'" Martin asks. "I'd like to know because I was as sick as a dog on Sunday morning after the Saturday night before!"

"I don't know, Martin," Sean says. "Would it have anything to do with sailors? Sea dogs? Being seasick? I don't know... what am I talking about?"

And Sean reveals the six answers to the question The Undertone posed earlier in the week, to name six one-word TV show names which are also foods. They are: Cracker, Porridge, Chips, Bread, Rhubarb (although the TV show was spelt Roobarb) and Mash.

With music from The Mavericks, Steve Earle, Engelbert Humperdinck, and more.
