Another in-person recording from Jamie's home in the Welsh hills, with Jamie hosting and Mike and Emma (Bailey) solving.

Here, the gang wander into a fantasy tavern called The Weary Wyvern. Straight out of a D&D adventure opening, the orc innkeeper has a problem. What follows is an epic adventure, all in the name of the ultimate prize: a free pint.

No quest? No problem! Lets hope it's natural 20s all round.

TLDR: The team use a massive D20, a wardrobe full of adventuring fear, and a magically sealed door to rescue the innkeeper's husband and escape.

This very special episode of The Infinite Escape Room is brought to you from Jamie's house in Wales...

...Or rather, Year 10 work experience at a local hospital! A somewhat universal experience for British kids.

Their surgeon mentor promptly injects himself with anaesthetic, collapses on the operating table, and leaves them locked in the surgery room with only one way out: perform a laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) to escape.

It's only a puzzling podcast, we're not saving lives here. Or are we?

• Solvers: Jamie Gibbs, Emma Bailey

TLDR: The solvers perform a gallbladder removal using surgical tools including a laparoscope and forceps and solve a puzzle with musical notes.

The black box recording of our faltering stumble through some of Nottingham's finest Escape Rooms. Jamie, Mike, Mairi and Jon are here to separate the wheat from the chaff, and leave you nothing but the finest flour to bake your Escape Bread with.

Or, we would've done, if things hadn't gone a teeny bit wrong.

With discussions and spoiler-free reviews of our recent TIER trip to Nottingham, UK to play six escape rooms:

• Robin of Lockskey, Escapologic
• Curio, Escapologic
• The Butcher, Escapologic
• Immaterium, Escapologic
• Monuments, Cave Escape
• Carfax, Cave Escape

There's also a little chat about Warhammer World, the site of pilgrimage for wargaming nerds across the globe.

Very nearly the quickest solve we've ever had!

In the final regular episode from our Nottingham AirBnB recording, Jon takes the helm and delivers, without notes, what he believes to be a deceptively simple yet fiendish death trap puzzle...only for Jamie to figure it out within seconds. It isn't the fastest solve we've had but it came damn close.

TLDR: The solvers find themselves inside a suspended cage, accompanied by dozens of rats. To leave means death, but the only means of escape is outside the cage.

Somewhere in this room there's a secret! Go get up and find it!

Or as I like to call it: The one in which Jamie hosts an audio escape room set in an airBNB, whilst recording from the airBNB, in which we have to get up and find actual hidden things in the airBNB. It's airBNBception in here.

Will the solvers untie the knots in Notts in time? (K)not likely!

• Puzzle Maestro: Jamie Gibbs

• Solvers: Mike Collins, Jon Saunders, Mairi Nolan

TLDR: The solvers find a physical locked box covered in knots, and have to solve the puzzles to open the box and recover the secret wine.

Join us deep within Robin's Hole, where it's time to pull up a cozy armchair and discuss this week's pubisode topic: When should escape rooms retire? We reflect on some of the recent real-life escape rooms we've played together in Nottingham and discuss the lifecycle of an escape room. How long should an escape room be open for? When should it be updated? When should it be retired? And how might an escape room's life be increased? If you're an owner, when do you retire your rooms?

As always, here are your recommendations for this month.

Jamie - Tears of Metal (videogame), think Dynasty Warriors, a comic book art style but set in medieval Scotland.

Mairi - The Fall (film), a trippy fairy tale of an adventure film.

Jon - The documentaries of Adam Curtis, and in particular, HyperNormalisation.

Mike - Knitting! In the background of whatever you're doing... And I quote: "It keeps your naughty hands busy"

The solvers find themselves in a series of strange caves deep underneath Nottingham. But they quickly realise these are no ordinary spaces as they seem to shift and transform on a whim.

Jamie, how big is the space? Mike, where is the door located? Jon, what are the walls made of?

The size of a key or the size of a football pitch? The door is on the ceiling and of course the walls are made of purrfectly normal materials. Right. Right?!

• Puzzle Maestro: Mairi Nolan

• Solvers: Mike Collins, Jon Saunders, Jamie Gibbs

• Episode Art: Dom Jordan

• Editor: Mike Collins

TLDR: The players walk through a series spaces and can choose the size, the material on the walls, and the way out.

*blip blip blip beeeep*

Somewhere in the labyrinthine corridors of a recording studio, the solvers find themselves back and with a bigger challenge than ever: Find the cassettes and solve the puzzles to put on the ultimate BBC Radio 4 "kitchen drama". What else could possibly save the BBC from it's ten trillion pound debt, afterall? Also Jack Foley is locked in a cupboard.

This is a room which just proves that in the end, everything really is just foley.

TLDR: The Infinite Escape Room returns, the solvers use a variety of foley items to put on a BBC drama.
