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 political commentator Mark Thompson, who's wondering why nobody else ever does 'WHACKO!'-accompanied high fives at any mention of computer-driven action series Whiz Kids, Crash ZX Spectrum, ITV Night Time show Night Shift, Public Information Film family The Blunders, The Last Train and Drak Pack. Along the way we'll be finding out why there should be more government warnings about the dangers of hallucinating a disdainful Emma Bunton, how to distinguish an American teenager on a BMX from Arthur Mullard in a school cap, and when it is and isn't appropriate to address Colin Bennett as 'Vince Purity'.
