In this episode Kieran and I discuss the iconic 'Bambi' episode of the British sitcom, The Young Ones (so that's series two, episode one- which sees the characters go on University Challenge). This episode was recorded late 2022 and I think was the first TV episode of this current 1980s run. We've done a few of these now, whereas here it felt like bold new territory for us. Oh, Ben Elton was not born in Southsea FYI. I had confused him with Peter Sellers who I had been reading about around this time.
In this episode Jev and I discuss 'The Running Man', the Paul Michael Glaser sci-fi action film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, based on the book by Richard Bachman (AKA Stephen King).
In this episode Kieran, Paul and I continue to look at 1980s music videos by discussing the Stephen R. Johnson directed video for Peter Gabriel's 'Sledgehammer'.
