It's a Mission Briefing and we are extremely proud to tell you all about (or maybe just remind you of) 'The Castle'.  Released in 1997 on a shoe-string budget it's a rare Aussie comedy that doesn't star an American or English actor but instead relies on local talent and a hilarious script that accentuates the unique eccentricities of suburban Australians. We'd love to get your Negligent Discharge...

Find out in this epoisode what Tim, Andrew (and to a lesser degree) Lucy got up to when they were left home alone by their trusting parents.

We also have some very spe...
