Really enjoyable podcast -the less well known shows are usually well worth a look. Thanks Chas Early!
The compass in a Christmas cracker gag was used nearly as many times as the "Can a woman with a wooden leg change a pound?" joke. The first mention I know of is in "The Toothpaste Expedition".

I think an investigation is needed into Keith's behaviour regarding those clips. I propose the investigation should be led by Keith.

Excellent show. Tom gives the best explanation I have heard of how to judge historic racial stereotyping - what is the intention and is it done without malice but also without care. Thank you

Not yet. I’m not one to binge watch, I’m quite happy to wait a week for the next episode. It gives me time to reflect.

I have heard one mention of Canada as a place ex-slaves tried to reach. Africa has featured prominently but not South Africa. Don’t get me wrong, the series is excellent, well researched and revealing.

It’s excellent but with an agenda. I have heard no mention of Ireland, Canada or South Africa

A sweeping generalisation. I read the Victor, the Eagle and the Rover and Adventure and grew up in the 1950s and 1960s. However, I can tell the difference between fiction and fact and learnt how to use discernment.

Good show and an excellent subject. I think the album suffers from being largely taken from the TV show.
I had this on CD at one time - same picture.
The footbal pools back then was bigger than the National Lottery was when it began. Google Viv Nicholson and you'll see.
