Submit ReviewLooks 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 illustrator and custodian of Scarfolk Museum Richard Littler, who's hearing things that go bump in the night that he thinks might just be the episode of The Waltons with a poltergeist, the Star Wars tableau in the 1978 Blackpool Illuminations, mysterious annual Ghost Special No. 2, MAD Magazine's Protect And Survive parody Meet Mr. Bomb, the Six Million Dollar Man's adversary Maskatron, railway safety film The Finishing Line, BBC Records And Tapes' Sound Effects No. 13 - Death And Horror, ITV children's horror serial Come Back Lucy and Richard Williams' animated version of A Christmas Carol. Along the way we'll be finding out what Richard Stilgoe rhymed with 'poltergeist', debating 'Giant Haystacks Bloke's position in Star Wars continuity, announcing our nominations for the Weird Mechanical Chicken Award and scrutinising Terry Wogan's controversial C3P0 origin story. And there's more about that elusive Quosh Tropical too...
