Oliver! (1968)

Listen Later

Everyone at Goon Pod Towers is very excited this week as this is the first time we've ever covered a Best Picture Oscar winner on the show, and this one features everybody's favourite beadle Harry Secombe who's in fine voice for this tremendous 1968 film based on the hit Lionel Bart stage musical!


Joining Tyler are those incorrigible urchins Chris Webb & Robert Johnson from Still Any Good podcast and among other things they discuss:


  • The magnificent Ron Moody
  • The novel vs the film
  • Harry hits it out of the park
  • That villainous Bill Sikes
  • The wonderous Oliver! set
  • Jack Wild's tragic life
  • Max Bygrave's nice little earner
  • The songs they dropped
  • Carol Reed's Flap!
  • Fagin puts in his 10,000 hours
  • Leonard Rossiter's drunken turn
  • Corrie does Oliver!
  • Bullseye the dog in makeup
  • Mark Lester's gift to Jacko
  • Brucie as Fagin?
  • Catflap's nod

    • Plus much much more!


    Consider yourself entertained!
