099 - GARY BAINBRIDGE - THIS IS LIKE MOUSETRAP IN REVERSE

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 writer Gary Bainbridge, who’s searching for the next instalment of the comic strip serialisations of Googi The Liverpool Duck, Big Bubbles, No Troubles by Ellis Beggs And Howard, stunt-riding action figure for girls Derry Daring, Looney Tunes and DC Comics stage crossover Bugs Bunny In Space, The London Connection, Cliff Richard's dance record as 'Black Knight', DJ Spuddles Original Gourmet Fries, The Shinsei Miracle and Shut Yer Gob by Lee Brennan. Along the way we'll be debating whether it's acceptable to play Paddington Bear in 'bearface', revisiting lost rock genre Rod Jane And Rogercore, rifling through Billy Butler's collection of white noise recordings, listening to Barry Cryer's cover of Scott Walker's Tilt, and pondering why so many children in seventies mail order catalogues looked like Matt Berry.

THE BEST OF LOOKS UNFAMILIAR 11 - THIS CAR HAS ABILITIES BEYOND THE CAPABILITIES OF AN ORDINARY CAR

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 featuring Justin Lewis on the original Only Fools And Horses theme tune, Jane Hill on His Land, Gabby Hutchinson Crouch on The Llŷn Peninsula Earthquake, Carrie Dunn on Too Close To The Sun, Tom Williamson on Samurai Pizza Cats and Bob Fischer on Eighties Tabloid Celebrities. Along the way we'll be finding out what evasive manoeuvres to take if Cliff Richard’s guitar starts falling over in church, querying where Matt Goss might actually have watched a very old wall crumble, puzzling over how New York can be ‘The Citiest Of Cities’, recalling Joan Collins’ scandalous affair with Ian Revolution 9-Smith, and holding a Bad Musicals Support Group meeting during the interval of another bad musical. Plus there's something you may not have heard before - Tim on It's An S Pod Thing! talking to Sophie Davies about S Club 7's ridiculous feature-length time travel escapade S Club 7 - Back To The '50s!

065 - JANE HILL - IT WAS QUITE A DUNGAREE BASED FILM

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 comedian Jane Hill, who’s on the lookout for anyone else who remembers gymnastics-heavy Children’s BBC thriller Out Of Bounds, a mystery Saturday Morning Cinema serial about pirates, Cliff Richard documentary movie His Land, Showell Styles’ ‘Simon And Mag Hughes’ mountain adventure novels, rig-bound BBC drama Oil Strike North!, and artificial mystery meat product Breakfast Slices. Along the way we’ll be finding out what evasive manoeuvres to take if Cliff Richard’s guitar starts falling over in church, questioning the entire purpose of Sweet Pebbles, and trying not to get caught reading a Green Dragon book when you’re actually Red Dragon age.
