Looks Unfamiliar's Yuletide Binge - Ben Baker - The Fickleness Of The Long Distance Ratter

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 broadcaster Ben Baker, who's hoping that nothing will him dismay in a handful of overlooked Christmas Specials of otherwise well-known television shows including The Goodies' ITV debut Snow White 2, Roland Rat's BBC debut Roland's Yuletide Binge and Imelda Davies, Mr, Griffiths and Harriet The School Donkey's debut in Grange Hill For Christmas. Along the way we'll be debating whether it's possible for anything to be more 'ribald' than Phil Cool's rubber face, trying to make it past the first ad break of the first episode of Astronauts, leafing through The Official Steve Nallon Annual 1985 and trying not to dwell on what Rob Newman was doing lurking outside the School Furniture Shed.

You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org. You can also find Ben on Mr T’s Christmas Dream, There’s Something Wrong In Paradise, God In The House, To Hell With The Devil, Highway, The Flint Street Nativity, the 1990 Bullseye Christmas Special, Adam And Joe’s Fourmative Years and TFI 1998 here, Bernard And The Genie here and the original and now quietly forgotten version of Now - The Christmas Album here.

If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. Standing next to a BBC Vending Machine and going 'NYEH-HEHH' is very much optional.
