Looks Unfamiliar

003 - Mark Thompson - I'm Quite Happy With My Passport Colour To Be Honest


Listen Later

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'.

You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You can also find Mark on Looks Unfamiliar talking about Libby’s Moonshine, A. Mazing Monsters, AgonyBeing Erica, Hawkeye Collins And Amy Adams – Can You Solve The Mystery? and We Know Where You Live plus an extra secret bit about watching television on holiday here and V: The Series, Dirty DickThe GiftieThe Mad DeathThe Different Story (World Of Lust And Crime) by Peter Schilling and Space Shuttle here.

If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. If you get it from one of those metal stands they used to have in city centres late at night you might even bump into Colin Bennett.
