118 - Paul Abbott - Don't Make A Puppy A Stage Manager

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 musician Paul Abbott, who's trying to line up the circular pencil mark fragments to form coherent images of Disneytime Rotadraw, What Shall We Do Now?: Fun And Games With The Andrex Puppy, Trivial Pursuit origin story drama Breaking All The Rules, Tomorrow's World demonstrating Magic Eye pictures live on air, BBC promotional mascot Kirky The HD Hunter, Frog Dreaming and Waddingtons' The Vampire Game. Along the way we'll be keeping an eye out for E.T.'s movie cameos in a cork-rimmed hat, explaining how television peaked with Eve Myles time-travelling into an eighties videotaped studio drama, examining the controversial genre of 'Andrex Hauntology', assessing the best way to draw TV's Simon And Simon and very specifically not asking for Michael Parkinson's thoughts on the Magic Eye phenomenon. Plus there's tips on how Blanco from Porridge can help your party go with a swing!

You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You can also find Paul on Looks Unfamiliar talking about Zeeb And The Martians, Crab E. Crab, Rock Lords: Narlies, the Commodore Plus/4, and The Late Night Funster Show here and the Christmas Special of The Peter Serafinowicz Show here, as well as on The Golden Age Of Children's TV talking about Transformers here and chatting to Tim about The Magic Roundabout here.

If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, why not buy us a coffee here? In a special Looks Unfamiliar Magic Eye mug where if you concentrate for long enough, you can see... I don't know, a Pyramint or something? Sort of.
