    Deep Dive: The School Trips That Scarred Us for Life

    School trips were supposed to be fun, weren’t they? A day away from the classroom, a packed lunch, a coach ride and the promise of something vaguely educational. But for many of us, they came with a healthy dose of fear, embarrassment, danger… and occasionally someone throwing up into a sandwich box. For this Thursday deep dive, Andy Bush, Dave Lawrence and producer Nikki take a trip down memory lane to explore the creepy, chaotic and downright traumatic world of school trips. From terrifying public information films and being trapped on questionable 1970s coaches, to quarries, creepy churches, red lakes, wasps in Coke cans and the ever-present fear of the sick kid on the bus, the team revisit the things that could turn an innocent school outing into a childhood nightmare. Nikki recalls taking a school trip to the London Dungeon — and the time she found an actual human skull while working at Highgate Cemetery. Dave remembers a particularly traumatic geology field trip involving a quarry and a blood-red lake, while Andy recalls the legendary school-trip disasters that have stayed with him for decades. Plus, we hear your memories of school trips gone horribly wrong, including vomiting on fairground rides, dead sheep in Snowdonia, disastrous hotel rooms, seasickness, accidental nudity and a school cruise involving vomiting teachers and a child apparently being left in Lisbon. So pack your soggy sandwiches, grab your cagoule and make sure nobody gets left behind… This is Scarred for Life’s deep dive into the terrifying world of school trips. Sleep well. Do have nightmares.

    Garth Ennis

    Welcome to Series 6 of Scarred For Life! In this episode of Scarred for Life, we’re joined by legendary comic book writer Garth Ennis, creator of The Boys and one of the most influential writers to come out of 2000 AD. Garth reveals the three things that genuinely scarred him for life: God, Stephen King’s Pet Sematary, and Ridley Scott’s Alien. From childhood fears of Hell to the horrifying idea of evil growing inside ordinary people, and the lasting nightmare of the xenomorph, Garth explains why some horror doesn’t simply scare you — it scars you for life ( He understood the assignment!) Along the way, we dive deep into his extraordinary career in comics, including Judge Dredd, 2000 AD, and The Boys. His friendship with Alan Moore the creator of Watchmen and From Hell. Garth talks about growing up in Belfast during The Troubles, how living around real-world violence influenced his writing, and his fascination with the way people adapt to violence rather than confronting it. We also get into The Boys, Billy Butcher, Garth's dislike of the regular superhero trope, corruption, corporate control, politics, and why the world of Judge Dredd can sometimes feel uncomfortably close to reality.

    Alex Lowe

    In this episode of Scarred for Life, Bush and Dave are joined by actor and comedian Alex Lowe, best known for his turn on Peter Kay's - Phoenix Nights - as the not so talented pseudo Psychic - Clinton Baptiste - and cockney throwback -Barry from Watford. Alex talks child acting, comedy, lost opportunities, working with big names, and the darker edges of performance before revealing three childhood terrors that still haunt him today. From a brutally bleak desert film to terrifying fairground rides and the body horror of The Thing, this is a brilliant, funny, and unexpectedly unsettling conversation about watching things at too young of an age and how that goes on to shape who you become. And for Alex, that means being "ever the bridesmaid, never the bride" despite being an actor for his whole life...something which you could argue is actually the better option!

    David Quantick

    In this episode of Scarred For Life, Andy Bush and Dave Lawrence are joined by writer, critic and screenwriter David Quantick, whose career has taken him from the NME and cult British comedy ( Blue Jam, The Day Today, The Thick Of It) to Emmy-winning success on Veep. David talks about the strange overlap between horror and comedy, the power of swearing in jokes, the dark brilliance of friends and collaborators Chris Morris & Armando Iannucci, and the childhood moments that left a lasting mark. His three scars are brilliantly specific and deeply unsettling: a terrifying Star Trek moment in Charlie X, the emotional horror of I’m Sixteen Going on Seventeen from The Sound of Music, and a Doctor Who encounter with the Yeti that sent him hiding behind the sofa. Along the way, the conversation ranges from Doctor Who, Star Trek, and horror fandom to the enduring power of physical media, bad reviews, and why funny things can be terrifying too.
