In this episode of Blacklisted with Matt Black, estate agent Andrew Downing-Booth faces financial adviser Dan Chadwick (Mercian Wealth Management). One gripe per round gets the blacklist; the winner nabs the coveted “You’ve Been Blacklisted” T-shirt.

Key Takeaways

The Game Plan: Five rounds—Films, Quotes, Nostalgia, Black Mirror (modern life), and Songs. Most blacklisted picks = Blacklister of the Week.

Round 1 – Films: Dan rants at Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (mainly Frodo); Andy targets Dolittle (2020).

Round 2 – Quotes: Andy swings at Shakespeare’s “To be, or not to be.” Dan picks the teen meme “Six Seven.”

Round 3 – Nostalgia: Dan nukes the teacher classic “You won’t always have a calculator.” Andy goes after Beanie Babies.

Round 4 – Black Mirror Moments: Andy tries to bin the mobile phone (signal rage); Dan targets “doing it for the ’Gram.”

Round 5 – Songs: Dan: Central Cee – “Good Times.” Andy: Drake – “One Dance.”

Best Moments

Dan’s net worth sets up Matt’s “I don’t own a net” gag.

Italian brain-rot: a classroom chorus to “Six Seven.”

Dan on Central Cee’s lyric: “Bragging about ‘good wood’ isn’t romance.”
