RTBWTV Podcast May 8th 2023 Review Show - Headhunters, Tin Mines and Voodoo
RTBWTV Review show May 7th 2023
We take a leisurely swim (rather than a deep dive) through the classic television that flickered across the black and white screens of the UK from the Suez crisis of 1956 until the three day week in 1974.
And with a bumper bank holiday three Saint edition, David and Guy are back again with reviews of three black and white episodes of Roger Moore's Simon Templar, currently going out on the UK's Talking Pictures TV -- The Golden Frog, The Frightened Innkeeper and ....Sibao. (Where the Saint gets into real trouble and has to rely on a voodoo priestess to help him out).
We ask ourselves, why do those South American rivers and Caribbean roads look distinctly untropical in wideshot, but so convincing in close up?
Why, every time a Pan Am flight disembarks, are the passengers wearing the same clothes?
Why buy a lonely Cornish pub on top of some mine workings with secret tunnels which contain goodness knows what?
And in Sibao, scriptwriter Terry Nation and chief guest John Carson give it their all, and then some. Voodoo, zombies, purification rituals -- and a lot of drums.
Copyright in all clips and music belong to the rights holders and they are used for educational purposes.
The Saint theme and Out To Get You are from the double CD The Music of ITC and there's a smidgeon of Orbital's big screen version which can picked up in full from all good online retailers.
