Natalie Cassidy and Joanna Page chat about all things on and off the telly.

What they can't stop watching, what they definitely aren't going to bother with, new releases and comforting classics - TV is timeless and no telly is out of bounds.

As well as having a natter about what's on TV, they share backstage goss from the world of telly, whilst also cracking up about the more humbling moments in their lives.

Self-confessed TV addicts and stars of two of the biggest shows on our screens, EastEnders and Gavin and Stacey, Natalie and Joanna are the perfect companions to see what's occurring on and off the telly.
