They are Katrina and Warren; ably assisted by Warren’s mother, Ashley and his new beau, P.J.

The murders in Soho are finally avenged thanks to an unexpected source… Later, Felix thinks he has sighted an old enemy – whilst P.J. puts Warren into a difficult situation when he learns that Keith has been turned to stone…

SCRIPT 3: A NEW ROGUE IN TOWN

Warren receives two surprising visitors, learns the fate of an old friend – and then goes for lunch at P.J.’s. Meanwhile, Katrina investigates a forgotten text message and has to contact Ashley in Nice to get clarification… Meanwhile, an old rogue is slowly setting down roots in the area – all in the name of revenge...

SCRIPT 6: THE BEST OF ENEMIES

Disasters are averted – but it’s a close thing and it’s also all the fault of Tom Peacock. Meanwhile, the spotlight falls on Adrianna and time is running out!

SCRIPT 7: DEATH IS A DIRTY WORD

Tom Peacock is losing control – but that makes things all the more dangerous for everybody else… What has happened to P.J. and Adrianna and can Frank and Jennifer survive the fallout from Tom’s quickly unravelling sanity?

SCRIPT 8: BACK LIKE THE OLD DAYS

Events reach a crescendo as Ashley takes the lead as far as trying to rid them of the evil that is Tom Peacock… Escape routes are planned and some familiar faces return at the last moment – but will things ever be quite the same?!?


Next time we'll be talking more about our latest episodes of THE SHY LIFE PODCAST and I'm sure they'll be something else special to discuss - sadly I can't release a new book or go on holiday every post; but I'll do my best...

That's all for now...

Take care - more soon,

Yeti hugs,

Paul (aka Shy Yeti) xx

PS Happy 27th birthday to Sutton Park tomorrow - 23/09/2019!

### The Return Of Dameus The Interviewer

Dameus interviews all manner of podcasting celebrities as part of his return to the chat-show circuit.

### The Will Of The People
There is bad feeling in Shy Life Podcast-land when the "will of the people" threatens to cause trouble for the show!

We look back at some of the scandal that has affected the little show over the years - the lives - the loves and maybe we'll even learn the truth about who pushed Zap down the stairs in episode 200!

### The New Caretaker / "Where's Me Booook!?"

What with Yeti Uncle John often being up in space - Bettina gives Paul the details of a caretaker who used to work on her Estate... It seems like a good idea until it becomes evident that this gentleman swings from being extremely lazy to shovelling every last thing into a bin bag... What ever will happen when he reaches the basement and finds all the tat in Cromitty's laboratory; what will happen to all those priceless Sutton Park tapes? For that matter will Cuthbert make it through the night!?!

### Re-connecting With The Past

Paul catches up with Cromitty and Martin and is excited to learn that Cuthbert has a few added advances that makes it possible to re-connect with the past via old episodes of SUTTON PARK... Ikk is slightly doubtful about it all - but he and Paul soon get to experience the process first-hand. Unfortunately his upgrade also unearths the control of a certain app that was once installed on him!

This episode sees Paul visiting Bettina only to find out that the house has recently become robotically automated; also Wifey Jo play a card game with Cuthbert.

More clips from the archives and recent conversations that don't have a home!!

### Shy Yeti And The Shame Inspectors

Shy Yeti gets more than he expects when he receives a visit from Isaac and Declan from That's A Shame podcast - they are constantly on the lookout for Shame sources - but this time they have Paul in their sights!

### Behind The Scenes - Fiction Within Fiction!

Paul looks back at how he used to film Sutton Park behind the scenes on some of Nick's films - with clips from both Tide Of Freedom and Evil Trophy and the equally dramatic Sutton Park episodes recorded during these productions. 

### Shy Yeti's Three Birthday Treats!

Paul reflects on three treats that he had for his recent birthday - involving activities with Nick concerning Paul's manager, the usual silliness with Toppie and a trip away with Jay and Ikk; all these treats are quite unusual to say the very least... 

### Shy Yeti's Birthday Diary 2019

Paul shares his birthday diary with the listeners as he and Toby head off into the wilds of the UK for his birthday! Things are getting out of hand with his manager and Paul has some very shocking news! Can Mr Trowbridge be of any help?

### Episode One Billion

We look forward a year or two to see how things are going for The Shy Life Podcast as we hit episode One Billion. Things are a little more advanced - but all the gang are still on board!!

### The First Last Shy Life Podcast Episode

This is the last episode of The Shy Life Podcast episode... or is it? 
(Recorded in July 2019 - but not scheduled for release, as yet)

### The Second Last Shy Life Podcast Episode

This is our Second attempt at a last episode of The Shy Life Podcast... Might it be real this time!?
