The Mackem and the Manc: Space: 1999 watch-through

Episode 19: The Troubled Spirit (Space: 1999)


Listen Later

Katie has the joy of the first Horror Space:1999 episode - her favourite genre - and also her first Italian one, Mamma Mia! Colin makes references to sitars far too many times that are strictly required.


We enjoy the leading man having three nipples, yet another posh foxy brunette, pyschic plants and Bergman's hair getting longer by each episode. On a serious note, this is one of the best and is pure gothic joy and pleasure. And Basil did the stunning make-up - hurrah!


Post-pod, Katie must have been plugged into our houseplants as she's absoutely aces the post-pod Victor Berman quiz. I didn't know our fuschia knew so much about 70's sci-fi.


What happens when someone who's never seen classic 70s sci-fi watches it with their other half who's a total geek for it? Will they love it, hate it, or ask for a divorce on the spot? The Mackem (Katie) and the Manc (Colin) from England are watching all 48 episodes and, for you the wonderful listener, we hope there's some humor and fun comments. You can also listen and watch at the same time, or just enjoy the banter. Warning - there's a few rude words!
