The Frankenstein Cut
Deathlings, Mel's been busy in the Underworld laboratory, stitching together a monster made from the finest body parts of previous episodes. Inside this delightfully unnatural creation: Stephen Mangan gets surprisingly invested in bowing etiquette, Vicki Pepperdine suffers a spectacular skydiving death with Channing Tatum, Bridget Christie recruits Radiohead for her funeral procession, Matthew Baynton prepares to be buried with his false teeth intact, and Larry Dean's Spin For Your Sins ends in eternal damnation while Mel enjoys a rather more heavenly outcome.

Deadly Hot Takes
Summer’s nearly done, Death‑lings — and things have been getting seriously hot both here in the UK and in the afterlife. Temperatures rising, tempers flaring, and Mel Giedroyc has found herself right at the centre of a blistering swirl of deadly hot takes. These are the moments that went bonkers viral, so we’ve gathered them up, cooled them just enough to be safe for human consumption, and packed them neatly into one combustible little bundle. Expect freshly‑singed contributions from Peter Serafinowicz, Maisie Adam, Vicki Pepperdine and Joel Dommett — all sparking off Mel in ways that probably violate several celestial fire‑safety regulations.
