There’s lots more about Wait Till Your Father Gets Home along with Hong Kong Phooey, Help!

If you’ve enjoyed this, you’ll enjoy Tim’s book Can’t Help Thinking About Me, a collection of columns and features with a personal twist which also includes a feature on Wait Till Your Father Gets Home. Can’t Help Thinking About Me is available in paperback here or from the Kindle Store here.

Alternately, if you’re just feeling generous, you can buy me a coffee here. I think you know which was the best iteration of Five Centres. Yes it was. Stop arguing.

Further Listening

You can also find Georgy on Looks Unfamiliar talking about Indoor League, Re-Joyce!, the Animals In The Box sketch, the Paul Squire Fan Club, Pippa Dolls, Pig In The Middle and Good Winter Telly here and joining Bob Fischer for a festively tinged chat about some of the signs that Christmas was coming that you just don’t get any more here and a similarly Kiss Me Quick Hat-averting Summer-themed chat here. Georgy also gave us her milkshake-questioning thoughts on Bod in The Golden Age Of Children’s TV here.
