LOOKS UNFAMILIAR REQUEST SHOW EXTRA

This is a collection of highlights from previous editions of Looks Unfamiliar aimed at new listeners, so I thought I’d ask the current listeners what they thought should go in it.

I couldn’t get everything in – and believe me I did try – so here are the twelve most popular guests and choices as voted for by you, the Looks Unfamiliar listening public.

So enjoy another listen – or maybe even the first listen for some of you – to Bob Fischer on Giant Hogweed, Samira Ahmed on Havoc, Jenny Morrill on Boots Global Collection, Mitch Benn on Two-Stage Self-Assembly Ice Cream Cones, Mark Thompson on A.

040 - ANDY LEWIS - IT WAS AS THOUGH SOMEONE HAD PHONED THROUGH A DESCRIPTION OF WHAT COKE TASTED LIKE

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 Andy Lewis, who's searching through a telescope for any signs of French adventure serial The Aeronauts, Spy In Space - A Scott Saunders Adventure by Patrick Moore, early interactive toy robot Sir Galaxy, stop-motion monster movie Gorgo, dubbed imported Cold War allegory children's serial The Secret Of Steel City and Vintage Anti-Enoch Powell Graffiti, plus some additional natter about repeats of The Goodies. Along the way we'll be reviewing the Gault's Brain Playset, meeting The First Cat Not In Space, recalling the classic studio jams by Garner Ted Armstrong and Wreckless Eric and definitely not drinking any 'Sola Cola'.
