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 tuning in that mysterious extra button on his television in search of any trace of Channel 4's pre-launch promotional trailers, Imagination by Belouis Some, Space Sentinels, Simon Dutton's turn as The Saint, How To Be A Complete Bastard by Adrian Edmondson and The Six Million Dollar Man's toy adversary Maskatron. Along the way we'll be profiling the ubiquity in popular drama of the Glen Matlock Face, finding out How To Be A Complete Bastard In Space, considering whether Astrea from Space Sentinels is 'above' pants and waiting eagerly for the repeat broadcast of Three Women Including Juliet Bravo singing that W-O-M-A-N song.
