    Spark Off: Alan EP2

    This episode of Spark Off is sponsored by roast potatoes. The theme of Alan’s episode is all about getting back to basics, whether that’s taking inspiration from roasting the humble potato, from his mum who was a maker and mender, or his dad, who loved to doodle on the bank note paper he’d swipe from work. From morning walks with Winston the dog to watching TV funnies like Taskmaster, Alan talks about how he always keeps an open mind to remain inspired. You’ll find plenty of the material he’s discovered in his book, Imaginary Friends, which is packed with activities to get people thinking creatively.
