THE BEST OF LOOKS UNFAMILIAR 02 - HE'S NOT ON A QUEST TO FIND OUT, HE'S JUST ON A QUEST TO GET OUT

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 Lisa Parker and Andrew Trowbridge on the Jaws board game, Ben Baker on Mysteries Of Old Peking, Martin Ruddock on Doomlord, Steve O'Brien on High Time and Ice Cold Cube by The Stone Roses, Jem Roberts on an advert reuniting Neil and Vyvyan from The Young Ones and Mark Griffiths on The Bloke Who Pulled His Pants Down On Kilroy. Along the way we'll be finding out why nothing is scarier than a playing field in Slough, how to spot Simon Bates in disguise via a series of cryptic clues and what musical genres 'The Youngs Ones' were avid followers of. Plus there's also something you may not have heard - Tim on the radio talking to Mark Thompson about the 2009 revival of The Prisoner, which - perhaps unsurprisingly (and deservedly) - everyone seems to have forgotten about...

009 - MARTIN RUDDOCK - I MADE A PLASTICINE HAROLD MACMILLAN

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 Martin Ruddock, who tries to get a show of nostalgic hands for Children's BBC Sherlock Holmes-spinoff The Baker Street Boys, Eagle comic strip Doomlord, techno-powered toy range Robotix, Commodore Amiga game The Fairy Tale Adventure, dubbed German drama serial The Legend Of Tim Tyler and Britpop band Thurman and their somewhat mysterious past. Along the way we'll be finding out why history has failed to recognise the Baker Street Girls , why Slough's playing fields are to be avoided at all costs, and why a song called 'Evil' might not quite have the intended effect on its target audience.

Alternately, if you’re just feeling generous, you can buy me a coffee here. You can always send The Baker Street Boys round to get one. I'm sure they won't be doing anything important.
