Russ and Mark have finally finished tidying up after the big 50th party and now it's back to work doing some serious auditing. This episode is in response to a listener enquiring as to the wherabouts of William Woollard. So here he is, joined by fellow TW GOATs Raymond Baxter, Judith Hann and Michael Rodd.

Bit of an engineering focus this time round, as we take a look at:

- A thrilling new way to apply liquid gaskets

- Funky anti-lock brakes for motorbikes

- The scourge of school vandalism

- Digital readouts for drilling

- Judith's rubber belts

- A Scottish cure for stammering

The big five-O. The half century. The golden jubilee. That's 50 editions of your favourite auditing podcast in the bag. That's a whopping 3.5% of all episodes of Tomorrow's World ever made that we've managed to cover (and 17% of all episodes of h&p@bbc. for less understandable reasons)

To celebrate such an auspicious occasion, Russ & Mark travel back 60 years to take a look at what the BBC claims is the first ever episode of TW (and we suspect is actually the second episode, but let's not quibble)

The show is still finding its feet and nobody involved seems to have realised that television ought to be at least somewhat entertaining, but let's crack on anyway and take a look at the following segments:

- The first ever home kidney dialysis machine
- A grifter hoping to dam up the Solway Firth
- The Mariner 4 spacecraft's mission to photograph Mars
- And that's it! Should be a short episode this month...

This actual original episode of Tomorrow's World can be found on the BBC's website for you to watch here:

We've just had the Oscars and in timely fashion Russ & Mark take the opportunity to audit a Hollywood Special of Tomorrow's World from the summer of 1998, the worst year for cinema in living memory.

Grab your bucket of popcorn and overpriced fizzy pop, sit back in your sticky seat and relax while Philippa Forrester and Craig Doyle bring us the following from the heart of Tinseltown:

- Motion capture featuring Trevor the rabbit
- Some film trailers
- The marvellous make-up of Matthew Mungle
- Gloriously obsolete Technicolor
- Hypno-robics, Botox and oxygen facials
- Synthespians
- ...And far too many mentions of the 1998 blockbuster flop "Gozilla"
