During lockdown, Noughties Podcast co-host Tom Pooley had the privilege of spending his days on Zooms calls with legendary broadcaster Tony Blackburn, recording his BBC Radio 2 Show. Each week, after Tony had recorded his links, the two of them would stay on the line for 10 minutes making small talk while the file was uploaded and sent over. One day, Tom decided to turn the conversation to the first series of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!Tony was the winner - which took place in the summer of 2002 - and crowned King of the Jungle. It was the first reality TV show to include celebrities and it was an instant hit, with the finale reaching nearly 11 million people. Tom's conversation with Tony about I'm a Celeb leads him to speak to two other participants in that series: Rhona Cameron and Christine Hamilton (who made the final). The trio share their recollections from the time, how the show changed their lives and what impact it still has. This podcast is a 4Kicks Production and presented by Tom Pooley, Sophie Donovan and Rob Comba. Find out more: https://www.4kicksproductions.com/ Hosted on Acast.

The Noughties Podcast is a new series from 4Kicks Productions that explores some of the most iconic in the ‘00s told by the people who shaped it. From Yorkie's controversial ‘Not for Girls' advertising campaign and a Gary Neville prank call that went viral, to the anarchy of Reading and Leeds Festival and the first ever King of the Jungle, we take on some of the decade's key cultural moments.To help us tell these stories, we welcome several special guests who all played important roles in noughties culture one way or another, including: Howard Brown from the Halifax adverts, DJ Tony Blackburn, comedian Rhona Cameron, Bloc Party's Matt Tong, Celeste Cruz from Daphne and Celeste, Trigger Happy TV creator Dom Joly, and many more.First episode is available on Wednesday 19 April. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
It's our hundredth episode and in celebration we have been briefly removed from our own time-streams to go old school and dawdle ineffectually around Survival from the olden days of 1989. On at least one occasion John says Rhona Cameron instead of Rona Munro, and he could not be more mortified. Sorry. Please read all of John Wyndham's work with the possible exception of the posthumously published Plan For Chaos. Peter Strickland's four films Katalin Varga, Berberian Sound Studio, The Duke Of Burgundy and In Fabric are all exquisite, but they aren't for everyone. Restraint Of Beasts by Magnus Mills is a morbidly brilliant book. Highly recommended. This is the US Doctors thing we were nattering on about. You'll have seen it ages ago. https://youtu.be/bCv5o7n_mtk Lawrence would like to draw your attention to these Numberphile things: https://youtu.be/l4bmZ1gRqCc https://youtu.be/U6xJfP7-HCc Stay strong. You're all wonderful.
