This is a collection of highlights from Looks Unfamiliar featuring Joanne Sheppard on Fax, Mitch Benn on The Deceivers, Mark Thompson on Your Party Needs You, Donna Rees on The Monty Python Matching Tie And Handkerchief, Georgy Jamieson on Go For Broke!, Steve Berry on MB Games’ Hangman, Tim Worthington on Outa-Space!, Ben Baker on Roland’s Yuletide Binge and Mic Wright on Solitary Fitness. Along the way we’ll be declining to eat some fifty year old corned beef, finding out what would happen if you described Mark And Lard to your grandparents, debating the the importance of elongated faces in topical satire, pouring scorn on Nigel Farage’s prowess as a long-haulage lorry driver, estimating how many copies of MB Games’ Voice Of The Mummy were piled up at Neverland Ranch and leafing through The Official Steve Nallon Annual 1985. Plus there’s also Tim on the radio talking about Michael Palin’s Around The World In 80 Days as well as ALF’s Marvel Comics appearances on ALFSplaining and the Beatles cartoon on The Big Beatles Sort Out, and a bit of a chat with Grace Dent about a certain saggy old cloth cat…
