Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to.
Joining Tim this time is comedian Athena Kugblenu, who’s frantically pressing pause on the video recorder in the hope of catching glimpses of Street Hawk, the ‘I Do Like A Ski, Man’ ad campaign, Bad Influence!, Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe, Murder One, Due South and The Dreamstone. Along the way we’ll be assessing Serena WIlliams’ prowess on the school P.E. apparatus, attempting to stage a Barbenheimer-style double bill of Bagpuss and Roots, rating the Mountie-Adjacent Superhunks and debating whether the Milk Tray man would have had more romantic success if he’d traded exclusively in yoghurt.
