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, comedian and writer Mitch Benn, who’s trying to get a team of light entertainment stars to decipher his mimes for Children's BBC celebrity panel shows Star Turn and Star Turn Challenge, evil Grange Hill teacher Mr. Hicks, Subbuteo-rivalling tabletop football game Striker, Lines by The Planets, Marvel UK strip Night Raven and the craze for having international celebrities acting in pop videos. Along the way we’ll be debating whether the most glamorous showbiz spectacular would be a 'Challenge' or 'On Ice', revealing when you should stage a Rihanna-Off or indeed a Rhianna-Off, and enjoying a couple of rounds of The Official John Craven Soccer Game.
You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You can also find other appearances by Mitch on Looks Unfamiliar here, here and here, and on It's Good, Except It Sucks here.
If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying one of Tim's books here or by buying us a coffee here. Please inform us straight away if an international celebrity is 'playing' the barista.
