THE BEST OF LOOKS UNFAMILIAR 08 - I NEVER THOUGHT I'D THINK TOM BAKER WAS GOING ON TOO MUCH

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 shows forty three to forty eight, featuring Paul Abbott on The Compleat Beatles, Anna Cale on Wendy Cracked A Walnut, Jim Sangster on The Ballad Of Lady Di by The Hon. Nick Jones and Ian Macrae, Melanie Williams on Rimmel Coffee Shimmer, Pete Prodge on The Evil Horde, Chris Hughes on The British Banknote Keyring, and Tim Worthington, Vikki Gregorich, Garreth F. Hirons and Jeff Lewis playing the Telly Addicts DVD game. Along the way we'll be finding out whether Princess Diana preferred Breaking Glass or Lancelot Link – Secret Chimp, debating the appropriate spelling of 'Compleat', and revealing what capital you’ll require to set up your very own Gonch Gardener lookalike agency.6 Plus there's something you may not have heard before - Tim, Jeff, Vikki and Garreth attempting to play an even more confusing and aimless DVD game, Tom Baker's Ultimate Sci-Fi Quiz...

046 - PAUL ABBOTT - SO I STARTED WRITING STORIES ABOUT GOBOTS INSTEAD

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 musician Paul Abbott, who's frantically trawling defunct search engines for any mention of VHS-only documentary The Compleat Beatles, the Cadbury's Smash spin-off Zeeb And The Martians books, short-lived CBBC puppet Crab E. Crab, Rock Lords spin-off action figure range Narlies, high concept home computer the Commodore Plus/4, Signal Radio's The Late Night Funster Show, and a couple of extra surprises involving Dudley Moore and Paul's family record collection. Along the way we'll be finding out what the rare John Lennon Transformer turned into, recalling the only joke ever told on The Comedians, debating the correct pronunciation of 'Adrian Mole' and spelling of 'Compleat', and definitely not finding out what time Crab E. Crab is on. Plus there's a live appearance by a Narlie!
