Join Jo and Heather for this bonus Christmas mini-episode as they get a master class on puppet making from puppeteer Daisy Jordan and attempt to solve some listener's creative agonies. Will they just make the creative agonies more agonising? Will they ever make it out of the control room again? Tune in to find out!

Jo and Heather talk to Special Creative Guest, the author John Higgs, about the KLF, Edwardian Punks and Milton Keynes. They also discuss Daisy Jordan's puppet Creative Challenge, and attempt to build themselves a robot butler. Packed full with original sketches and songs - will all this be enough to feed the Creative Beast?

Pyramids, Plumbers and Pot Heads was written and performed by Joanna Neary and Heather Minor.  With music and production by Heather Minor and mastering by Jon Griffin. Joanna and Heather would like to thank their creative guest, author John Higgs and additional cast members Alastair Kerr as the Robot Butler and Jon Griffin as American Ad Man. John Higgs' next book is  'The Future Starts Here - Adventures in the Twenty-First Century' and it's out on May 16th.
