In this episode Paul and I discuss another British animated kids show (a spin-off show from Danger Mouse, which we talked about earlier this year): Count Duckula. So we talk about the origins of the character, the show in general and also talk specifically about the episode 'Hardluck Hotel'.
Continuing the Sherlock talk from last week's episode, this time around I have delved into the archives of my original podcast- the SpielbergPod- to the 2015 conversation between myself and Jev on the Barry Levinson film, 'Young Sherlock Holmes' (it was Spielberg produced, that was why we we discussing it then).
In this episode Paul and I break into our 1980s Disney coverage with a conversation about 'The Great Mouse Detective' (better known in some countries as 'Basil the Great Mouse Detective'), the film which asks the questions 'what if Sherlock Holmes was a mouse' and 'can you eat cheese with crumpets?'
In this episode Kieran and I pick back up with our coverage of Michael Apted's Seven Up documentary series, with a conversation about '28 Up' from 1984. One note on this, we recorded this episode ages ago- back in September 2020 (in the period between the first and the second lockdown). Sorry this took so long to go live but it's a great chat. Oh, one more thing- this was the first 1980s episode we recorded (so this is Kieran's first time hearing this series' sign-off at the end).
Join us next time as we break into 1980s Disney with an episode on 'The Great Mouse Detective'!
