THE BEST OF LOOKS UNFAMILIAR 04 - THE REAL BOWIE SAYS TO THE IMAGINED BOWIE

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 Paul Kirkley on The Kids From Fame Again, Garreth Hirons on Sweet 75, Darrell Maclaine on The Brennan JB7, James Gent on When The Wind Blows by David Bowie, Ros Ballinger on Microsoft Explorapedia, and Jonny Morris on Jesta Giggle by The Barron Knights. Along the way we'll be finding out why The Barron Knights should have covered T.V.O.D., where the whistling from Never Let Me Down was 'borrowed' from, and which former member of Nirvana really loves accordions. Plus there’s also something you may not have heard before – Tim on Betamax Video Club talking about Absolute Beginners, and an extra downhill slaloming surprise at the end..

022 - JAMES GENT - A CROSS BETWEEN THE PRISONER AND TEST MATCH SPECIAL

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 James Gent, who is using 'computer graphics' to link hazy archive recollections of The Golden Oldie Picture Show, When The Wind Blows by David Bowie, Beeb Magazine, T-Rex 'Greatest Hits' albums with none of the hits on them, Children's BBC clip show Boxpops, and the Montreux Special of Monty Python's Flying Circus. Along the way we'll be finding out what Clive Dunn being Grandad as Grandad looks like, where the whistling from Never Let Me Down was 'borrowed' from, and exactly where you can find an alarming amount of detail about Michael Sheard And His Pet Dogs.
