Looks Unfamiliar

085 - Mic Wright - Film Noir But It's Fish


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 journalist Mic Wright, who’s pushing, filing, stamping, indexing, briefing, debriefing and numbering his recollections of I Helped Patrick McGoohan Escape by The Times, Clarissa Explains It All, 2000 AD strip Nikolai Dante, Sharky And George, Steve Aylett's biographies of non-existent writer Jeff Lint, and psychological puzzle sensation The Game. Along the way we’ll be debating whether Tony Soprano would still come top of all of those critics' lists if he had a pet alligator, playing Paranoid Mornington Crescent, trying to figure out the logic behind posting on the Internet to say there's nothing on the Internet about Sharky And George, and placing bets on whether anyone can beat Margaret Thatcher at The Game.

You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You find Mic on Looks Unfamiliar talking about The Adventures Of Pete And Pete, Army And Navy Sweets, Emergency by 999, Rock On by David Essex, Thunderbirds comic and the murky origins of a certain unsavoury playground rumour here and Cargo by Men At Work Rocko’s Modern Life, Party Animals, Solitary Fitness by Charles Bronson and Tazos here.
