111 - PHIL NORMAN - A MILKSHAKE FOR ROBERT ELMS

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 Phil Norman, who's swinging by the sweat room for some punishment with Pertwee in the hope of finding any trace of BBC junior science show Over The Moon, Amityville (The House On The Hill) by Lovebug Starski, I Am The Cheese by Robert Cormier, WFLA Milkshake, Children's BBC game show Spy Trap, educational textbook Mediamind, The Black Tower, Soul Train by Swans Way and Paul And Peta Page's 'Hot Dogs'. Along the way we'll be charting the rise and fall of 'Frisps Chic', assessing the commercial viability of a Hauntological Space Hopper, speculating on whether Derek Griffiths' vocal extemporisations were a coded warning about AI, listening to Morrissey's Classic Horror Impressions and trying to determine the difference between a Home Bargains Morph and Bloke Who Stands Next To The Genie.

You can also find Phil talking about S-S-S-Single Bed by Fox, Leapfrog, The Country Life Christmas Box, Humrush by KMD, Body Contact, Oscar The Rabbit In Rubbidge, Erasmus Microman and Can Heironymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humpe And Find True Happiness? here.
