From dodgy baking to disastrous DIY wine, this week's confessions serve up another round of mischief, mishaps, and morally questionable decisions.

 Loves Hot Fevered Iron shares a confession from a real reverend who politely accepted a weekly homemade cake from a well-meaning parishioner only to secretly bin them every time. Then there's Dave from Grimsby with a Horse with No Name, who sent his dad to the farm shop on a mission for his sister's horse, Hoof Hearted a name that's far more embarrassing when said out loud. Meanwhile, Professor Perilous finally comes clean about a shocking day in his teaching career with Sonic Boom Boy, when a student in his DT class sanded off the top of her finger. And in the truly stomach-churning It Ain't Easy Being Green, Tom recalls his time at an eco-commune, where homemade wine and a compost toilet got horribly, horrifyingly mixed up.

 In the Not for Broadcast section, the team tackles revenge with a toothbrush, the sheer indignity of being sick into a coat pocket. There's also a heated discussion about punctuation, the mystery of 'market leaves' and a reprise of the Ukrainian drunk geese, which leaves Matt thoroughly baffled.

Brace yourself for an episode packed with laughter, gasps and moments you wont forget.
