Looks Unfamiliar

Writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington is joined by a series of guests for a bit of a chat about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. From Coming On Strong by Broken English and The Order Of The McVitie's Hobnob, to whichever TV programme it was that ended with footage of dandelion seeds being blown away, we're here to try and help, and to confirm that no, nobody else remembers them either.

    The Golden Age Of Children's TV - "It's Always Also Very Important What Schools Everybody Are From"

    Tim Worthington has a new book out called The Golden Age Of Children's TV - all about the best, worst and most just plain baffling shows you grew up with in the sixties, seventies and eighties - and the lines are open now for an hour of fun, facts, laughs and thrills. Donna Rees will be joining us live from Festive Road to see if there's anything in her pocket to help her to remember Mr. Benn. Chris Shaw will be taking a seat next to Derek Griffiths to give us the latest movie news and all the reviews of what's on at your local Roxy in Film Fun. Suzy Robinson has a few tips on how you can make good use of the things that you find and the things that the everyday folks leave behind with The Wombles. Lydia Mizon is on head to lead another couple of teams through the thrills and spills and general mucky messiness of the Fun House, and Deborah Tracey is lining up with the Pink Windmill Kids for another viral song and dance sensation in Emu's All-Live Pink Windmill Show. So if you want to join in the fun - or just swap a copy of Shake Your Groove Thang by Pat'n'Mick for The Reluctant Pote by Rod Hull - ring the show now! You can get The Golden Age Of Children's TV in all good bookshops, and from Amazon here, Waterstones here or directly from Black And White Publishing here - and if you want to know more about what you can find in it, head for timworthington.org!

    122 - Mic Wright - This Is The Kind Of Thing You Do Not Get From Jane Fonda

    Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. Joining Tim this time is journalist Mic Wright, who’s rummaging around in a crisp bag in search of Cargo by Men At Work, Rocko's Modern Life, Party Animals, Solitary Fitness by Charles Bronson and Tazos. Along the way we'll be discussing how to avoid Ebeneezer Goode Syndrome, ruminating on The Thinking Man's Pog, trying to swap a duplicate Michael Parkinson Tazo for three Matt Smiths and revealing just how close Tupac Shakur came to appearing in Ballykissangel. You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You can also find Mic on Looks Unfamiliar talking about The Adventures Of Pete And Pete, Army And Navy Sweets, Emergency by 999, Rock On by David Essex, Thunderbirds comic and the murky origins of a certain unsavoury playground rumour here and I Helped Patrick McGoohan Escape by The Times, Clarissa Explains It All, 2000 AD strip Nikolai Dante, Sharky And George, Jeff Lint and The Game here. If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, why not buy us a coffee here? I'd say they should do a Kenco Tazo, but... it would probably logistically have to be a set based on Tenko.

    Tim Worthington has a new book out called The Golden Age Of Children's TV - all about the best, worst and most just plain baffling shows you grew up with in the sixties, seventies and eighties - and the lines are open now for an hour of fun, facts, laughs and thrills. Joanne Sheppard will be dropping in to follow some unreasonably cryptic - and unreasonably perilous - clues left by Sherlock Holmes for The Baker Street Boys. For all you budding Doc Crocs out there, Ben Baker has a few tips on how to get ahead in actual literal gutter journalism in Round The Bend. Ricardo Autobahn will be putting his pop chart stardom to good use by becoming the latest third member of Rod, Jane And in Rainbow. Carrie Dunn has a few tips on why girls are smarter than boys and she's seen Maid Marian And Her Merry Men to prove it, and Georgy Jamieson is ready to take your calls about the philosophical ramifications of citrus milkshakes in Bod. So if you want to join in the fun - or just swap a copy of The Giant Spitting Image Komic Book for Derek Griffiths' Bent Outta Shape - ring the show now!

    The Looks Unfamiliar Horror Bag - Steve Berry - Frankenstein's Monster Ice Lolly Face Disappears When Ice Lolly Removed From Packet

    Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. Joining Tim this time for a suitably spooky chat is writer Steve Berry, who’s hoping to dazzle the crowds at the village hall Halloween Disco with his knowledge of Words And Pictures' Witches Of Halloween, Smiths Horror Bags and Vincent Price's ill-fittingly horror-themed adverts for MB Games. Along the way we’ll be questioning Richard Herring's historical sources for the story of St. Ian, asking Wittgenstein if he'd like a Dracula's Deadly Secret, pitching a combined biography of Henry Woolf, Wolfe Morris and Gabriel Woolf, estimating how many copies of MB Games' Voice Of The Mummy were piled up at Neverland Ranch and trying to work out exactly where a 'VHS Fonz' fits in to the Classic Horror tradition. You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at timworthington.org. You can also find Steve on Looks Unfamiliar talking about Single Versions Of Pop Songs That Never Get Played Any More, Elastoplast Heroes, United States Of Television, Skoal Bandits, Starblazer Electronic Space Command Belt and Morning Has Broken here. If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. They never did find a way of making it Dracula-themed. But you can bet they tried.

    The Golden Age Of Children's TV - "BBC Controlled Anarchy"

    Tim Worthington has a new book out called The Golden Age Of Children's TV - all about the best, worst and most just plain baffling shows you grew up with in the sixties, seventies and eighties - and the lines are open now for an hour of fun, facts, laughs and thrills. Estelle Hargraves will be getting into gear and hitting the street to tell us why No. 73 was less chaotic than some actual shared houses she's lived in, live on-air snake bites and all. Gabby Hutchinson Crouch would like to hear from anyone with a hot tip on a story for the Junior Gazette in Press Gang, and she's especially keen to hear from Colin. Jonny Morris will be showing us how, despite Chas'n'Dave's promise in the theme lyrics to 'catch you out', you can win at Crackerjack! (CRACKERJACK!) by cheating. Mic Wright is heading off Around The World With Willy Fog, and Garreth Hirons has a more serious message to impart about why you shouldn't open that Trap Door. So if you want to join in the fun - or just swap a copy of The Richard Stilgoe Letters for a boxed Camberwick Green Village Playset - ring the show now! You can get The Golden Age Of Children's TV in all good bookshops, from Amazon here or directly from Black And White Publishing here - and if you want to know more about what you can find in it, head for timworthington.org!

    The Best Of Looks Unfamiliar: The Wheatmeal Man Came Round Every Thursday Week

    Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. This is a collection of highlights from Looks Unfamiliar featuring Suzy Robinson on Crown Court, Danny Kodicek on Fox Tales, Bob Fischer and Georgy Jamieson on Why Don't You...?, Paul Abbott on Disneytime Rotadraw, Genevieve Jenner on Fruitopia, Adam S. Leslie on I Heard Your Name by Martin Rev and Justin Lewis on I Hate J.R. by The Wurzels. Along the way we'll be revealing when BBC Test Card F might actually be your less terrifying viewing option, listening to a 1970s heroin-y version of They Might Be Giants, arguing over whether the best Catatonia album was the first one or the first one, assessing the best way to draw TV’s Simon And Simon, remaking the Bitter Sweet Symphony video with the bloke out of The Wurzels, speculating on the efficacy of Kiss-Me-Quick-Hats sported by popular television puppets, revisiting Jamiroquai’s duet with some puppet caterpillars, soliciting The Jesus And Mary Chain’s theories on Who Shot J.R.?, organising a day trip to the exact spot where Roland Rat pushed Kevin The Gerbil down a hill, shuddering at the thought of The Jim Rose Circus Sideshow’s most repulsive exhibit and and revealing why the hippy trail is strewn with striking dustbins, cough medicine and Crown Court. Plus there’s tips on how Blanco from Porridge can help your party go with a swing! Also there's extracts from Tim talking about Billy Liar on Goon Pod Film Club, Now - The Summer Album on Back To Now and George Martin's By George! on The Big Beatles Sort Out, and an extra bit of Bob and Georgy questioning Will Smith's approach to summertime scheduling... You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at timworthington.org. If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. It's doubtful WIll Smith would have enough time for one though. Unless he drank it very, very quickly.

    121 - Donna Rees - Michael Palin Is Almost Like A Suit

    Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. Joining Tim this time is actor Donna Rees, who's hoping that the double groove will land on eerie ITV children's serial King Of The Castle, The Monty Python Matching Tie And Handkerchief, The Innes Book Of Records and early seventies romantic teen comedy Melody. Along the way we'll be revealing why The Milky Bar Kid is more attractive when 'in space', pouring scorn on Nigel Farage's prowess as a long-haulage lorry driver, lamenting the loss of a shed autographed by Eric Idle and revealing what happens if you tell a Starbucks barista your name is 'Throat-Wobbler Mangrove'... You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, why not buy us a coffee here? Presumably the presenter of 'Coffee Club' will be entirely saWUARGHFP*SPLONSH*

    120 - Danny Kodicek - The Bergerac-Pullover Crossover

    Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. Joining Tim this time is actor Danny Kodicek, who’s listening well to Grandpa Fox's stories of Fox Tales, Pullover, Simon Bates doing a live action version of Our Tune as part of Good Morning With Anne And Nick, Radio 5 youth shows WICR and Brassic and defunct puzzle website Time Hunt. Along the way - after we've finished taking a look behind the scenes at The Saturday Show - we'll be revisiting Jamiroquai's duet with some puppet caterpillars, hunting for the Bootleg Pullover Millions and recalling the epochal cultural impact of 'Terry' from Grange Hill. You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, why not buy us a coffee here? Make sure not to pick up Ronni Ancona's double espresso by mistake.
