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 writer and illustrator Ste Brotherstone, who's trying to collect a full set of picture cards for World Of The Vorgans, Rebecca's World by Terry Nation, TV Tops, Car Wars, Load Runner magazine and Night Shift. Along the way we'll be thrilling to the exploits of Dash Randon - Space Adventurer, celebrating the notorious Video Nasty The Horse Who Came From The Sea, venturing into the uncharted regions of Here Be Buses Where You Don't Know Where They Go, attempting to use ALF as a barometer of celebrity status and debating the optimal costume options for a double-page poster of Arthur English.
You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You can also find Ste on The Lone Ranger by Quantum Jump, Roger Moore And The Crimefighters, 10-4 Action, Pictures, Deus Ex Machina and a withdrawn Williams Furniture Superstore advert here.
If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. Actually, how come they don't do collectable picture cards with coffee? No the Caffè Nero loyalty card doesn't count. Even that one Stewart Lee had with the green stamps on it.
