The classic novel, the playground of literary greats such as Austen, Dickens, the Brontë sisters... but have you actually READ these books? Sisters Katy and Marsha take a closer look at classical texts, expect feminist rants, funny anecdotes, coarse language and general silliness!

The Secret Garden Finale - Where is Mary? 17.04.2026

The finale is here! But where’s Mary? Well, before we get to that, we meet the famous Mrs Sowerby, Dickon’s mum and you bet she’s a babe. Colin continues with his lectures much to everyone’s dismay, also goes through the “MINE!” phase. Meanwhile, Mr Craven goes to Lake Como and has a very relaxing sleep before leisurely making his way home to find… well you’ll just have to listen and see!! And Mar...

The Secret Garden pt 7 - That is magic 10.04.2026

Bringing you stories from a cupboard- that is magic. This week we learn Dickon has a very normal last name as his mother takes a more active role in helping the children hide Colin's improving condition to the dismay of cook. Ben Weatherstaff takes teasing Colin a little too far and Colin and Dickon become gym bros.

The Secret Garden pt 5 - Dickon's Orphans 03.04.2026

Hysterics, hysterics, hysterics!!! What is happening at Misselthwaite Manor this week?! Colin's in a huff, Mary's learnt a new word and where does Dickon keep procuring these orphaned baby animals from? It's all very suspicious and simultaneously enchanting. So get ready for some dodgy Yorkshire dialect, Inbetweeners quotes and horror movie imagery! Enjoy!

The Secret Garden pt 5 - Give Chase! 27.03.2026

This week at Misselthwaite Manor it is kicking off!! Colin and Mary may have been getting on like a house on fire, but now the house may as well be on fire! Jesus, don't piss off privileged 10 year olds! Katy tells us her most "embarrassing" memory, and it nearly sees Marsha off, there are some very odd people in this world! And to cap it off, the sun is shining in Yorkshire, which t...

The Secret Garden pt 4 - Are you a ghost? 20.03.2026

Come join us on the moors for some cathartic wailing to your ex, no this isn't Wuthering Heights, but it does have the same amount of ghosts as Emerald Fennell's film. We'll also discuss boundary setting with Belle and the Beast. More "if The Secret Garden was a horror film" plot development. An autism battle over taking "a bit of earth" too literally. And we find o...

The Secret Garden part 3 - Sexual Awakening 13.03.2026

We left last episode with a strange disembodied voice haunting the corridors of Misselthwaite Manor, but shh, no one cares about that - meet the OG Disney Prince - Dickon, every straight 10 year old girls' fantasy. Will Mary be able to keep her cool? Will she show him the garden? Will Ben ever stop roasting Mary at every opportunity? And will Mary ever meet her mysterious uncle? Sit back, whis...

The Secret Garden part 2 - That Chicken Leg 06.03.2026

By now you should have done your homework and watched the 90s film version of The Secret Garden, and you should know the uncredited role of Mrs Medlock's love interest, the chicken leg. We can all wish to have a such a satisfying encounter, but only a very select few shall actually experience it. Bet it stank though. So yes! Join us for part 2 of Mary's new life, as she arrives in Yorkshir...

The Secret Garden part 1 - Tyrannical, little pig. 27.02.2026

We're back baby! And to help us transition from this horrible winter into the warmer months, we're bringing you The Secret Garden - like only Unclassical can tell it! If you grew up watching the 90s film - get ready to hear the darker themes the film missed out, and if you didn't grow up on 90s film adaptations, well watch them! All of them! You're welcome! But for now, sit back, s...

Enid Blyton Christmas Special 25.12.2025

Ho ho… huh? We are diving into the festive, idealist world of Christmas with Enid Blyton! But is it as perfect as you'd think? Recognise familiar themes of bubbling resentment, parental favouritism and a constant reminder that a woman's place is rearing children and in the kitchen! Good? Good. There's actually quite a lot of history and cocoa too! So get a blanket, snuggle in, and may...

6. The Crucible - The End 07.11.2025

This week, we return to The Crucible and somehow manage to hate John Proctor even more —which we didn’t think was humanly possible, but here we are. We also dive into the very important logistical question: if both parents are in prison for witchcraft, which parent should organise the childcare? Plus, we unveil a new theory about one characters’ secret motivations... Grab your broomstick, light yo...

5. The Crucible - Abby's Playground 31.10.2025

John’s dragging Mary Warren to court to expose Abby for the chaos gremlin she is — but Salem’s her playground, and tbh, John is too dumb to stand a chance. Cue courtroom meltdowns, mass hysteria, and John threatening to beat children every two minutes. Elizabeth deserved so much better... Justice? Never heard of her.

4. The Crucible - Stark Poppet Crazy 24.10.2025

Things are heating up in Salem faster than a witch at the stake. This week, we return to John and Elizabeth Proctor, as they try (and fail) to have a normal conversation without making us want to cause John much pain. Mary Warren returns from court with gossip hotter than Tituba’s cauldron, and let’s just say... it’s not looking great for the wives of Salem... or women in general... or vulnerable...

3. The Crucible - Frog in me soup 17.10.2025

Join us for our next instalment where Hale Arrives & the Proctor Tea Spills. Reverend Hale finally struts into Salem ready to sniff out some witches, and things get messy . We learn more about what the girlies were actually up to in the woods (spoiler: it’s not just a cheeky little dance), and tensions start simmering over at the Proctor household. John’s got secrets, Elizabeth’s got suspicion...

2. The Crucible - The T be HOT! 10.10.2025

Episode 2 of Unclassical’s The Crucible series is here! This week, the drama hits a new level. We learn why you do not mess with the girls (seriously, they run Salem), and finally get the real story behind Goody Proctor and Abby’s beef — and ohhh it is JUICY . 🍵👀 Also… how many people can you squeeze into Betty’s bedroom?! We have got to be sitting on laps by now! 😂 Betrayals, gossip, witchy si...

1. The Crucible - Witch Bitch 03.10.2025

New Series! It’s officially spooky season, and we are are diving broom-first into something a little... witchy 🧹✨ Our brand new series is here, and we're kicking things off with The Crucible – drama, paranoia, betrayal, and just a touch of Puritanical panic. Standard October vibes, right? So grab your cosiest blanket, light that pumpkin spice candle, and settle in with your favourite witches...

My Cousin Rachel pt 5 - Philick 15.08.2025

It's here the final instalment and Marsha did not see that ending coming! Generally, we confirm that the bar for men, as ever, is on the floor. You can have a fun conversation starter for this week - would you still be alive if you were a Victorian? And have Rachel and Philick employed the WORST landscape gardeners ever?! Apologies is the sound is a bit erratic, tell Katy to talk louder! We&#3...

My Cousin Rachel pt 4 - Perfectly fine sex 08.08.2025

Guys, strap in, strap on - just strap something, because wow! Things have amped up with Philip and Rachel, crossed wires, mixed signals and so much ick and cringe! I don't even know what to say, just tune in, find a wooden spoon to bite down on and we'll see you at the end!

My Cousin Rachel pt 3 – Hellen Kellen 01.08.2025

Let's have a sneak peek at what you can expect this week: Victorian X-rated vibes? Absolutely, tongues away! Tongues between friends?? Rachel be playing games . Really bad eggs? Tick. Tarantulas! Would you pull a gun? Marsha's had coffee and it SHOWS. C.J. Walker - Marsha's educated and Katy gets some home truths... The Ashley Estate continues to put on a very good spread! But could do better on t...

My Cousin Rachel pt 2 - Confessions of a Widowholic 25.07.2025

We are back with part two of My Cousin Rachel, and our girl Rachel is at it again, is she a scheming money grabber? Or, just a girl staring at a gormless boy, wanting to teach Italian? Either way, full respect Rachel, you do you. It's going to take a lot for us to sympathise with Phillip! Also get ready for some awks sexual awakening moments at the hand of our maisonette master! Yes, you read...

My Cousin Rachel pt 1 - Bereavement Tours 18.07.2025

We’re back, baby — and this time, we’re diving headfirst into the stormy tea-cup that is My Cousin Rachel by Daphne du Maurier! Get ready to be swept away to the upper echelons of British society — with a cheeky detour to sun-drenched Italy, as we unravel a tale of mystery, obsession, and possibly some very dodgy doings! Is Rachel a vibe or a total skank? Tune it, grab a cup, it's tea spilling...
