In October last year, broadcasting legend John Stapleton, a former host of shows like Nationwide and Watchdog, was diagnosed with Parkinson's. This week, he joins the Movers & Shakers in the Notting Hill pub to discuss his life, career and his PD journey so far. From getting pecked off our screen's by Rod Hull's intemperate Emu to making a film about his diagnosis with his award-winning documentarian son Nick, John has led an extraordinary life. Sitting down with Mark, Gillian, Rory, Paul and the Judge in 2025 is not quite watching the Beatles in 1963 – but it'll have to do!Sponsored by Boardwave, who support Cure Parkinson's.Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn and Jeremy Paxman.Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot.Sound mixing by Ewan Cameron.Music by Alex Stobbs.Artwork by Till Lukat.PR by Sally Jones.

Tim Worthington has a new book out called The Golden Age Of Children's TV - all about the best, worst and most just plain baffling shows you grew up with in the sixties, seventies and eighties - and the lines are open now for an hour of fun, facts, laughs and thrills. Donna Rees will be joining us live from Festive Road to see if there's anything in her pocket to help her to remember Mr. Benn. Chris Shaw will be taking a seat next to Derek Griffiths to give us the latest movie news and all the reviews of what's on at your local Roxy in Film Fun. Suzy Robinson has a few tips on how you can make good use of the things that you find and the things that the everyday folks leave behind with The Wombles. Lydia Mizon is on head to lead another couple of teams through the thrills and spills and general mucky messiness of the Fun House, and Deborah Tracey is lining up with the Pink Windmill Kids for another viral song and dance sensation in Emu's All-Live Pink Windmill Show. So if you want to join in the fun - or just swap a copy of Shake Your Groove Thang by Pat'n'Mick for The Reluctant Pote by Rod Hull - ring the show now!You can get The Golden Age Of Children's TV in all good bookshops, and from Amazon here, Waterstones here or directly from Black And White Publishing here - and if you want to know more about what you can find in it, head for timworthington.org!
with today's New York Times report that Robert F. Kennedy's wife, Cheryl Hines of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” notoriety was attacked by the former's pet emu, we're coaxed (well, forced) to recall the heyday of the late Rod Hull's ill-behaved emu (above, left). Before Hull perished in a rooftop antenna-adjusting accident (THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT US TO BELIEVE), his Emu assaulted Michael Parkinson, Johnny Carson and probably a lot of persons who weren't TV hosts, either. Today's planned 2 hour salute to Hull & Emu was sadly scrapped by my new partners at E### V###### R#### who complained no one would be familiar with Hull (that's the point of the episode, FFS) and modern audiences would not understand someone falling to their death while adjusting a TV aerial (they might have a point here).
Episode 20 (05/06/24) - This week it's Greg's Gourmet Slops. Instead of preparing some things to talk about like “those squares” Barry and Johnny, Greg decided that he would have a couple of drinks during the day and just freewheel his way through the show that he was meant to be in charge of. With a little help from Baz and John he just about gets away with it. Things on the show - Johnny meets some unhelpful people at the bank, Gayle leaves Coronation street, Greg discusses struggling to get out of “holiday mode”, impressions of Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer at the debates and a Prime Minister getting smashed on his first day, Maggie Thatcher visits the studio to talk to Greg, the new Bad Boys film, interactive movie experiences, Greg's struggles to make a video for a remix of the Um Bongo advert, mixing up Dick Van Dyke films, dots on samosas? a dead or alive quiz, the return of Loaded magazine, Johnny's old job as a fake paparazzi, how Giles Brandreth killed Rod Hull, Greg drunkenly points out the obvious about Donald Trump and talks about visiting America as a child, Richard Osman, Future Greg and a whole lot more!
This week Trev's gutted to miss a "bucket list" moment, Ben discovers when a prize isn't all it seems and what's the difference between a prize and a sporting triumph? Plus, the Rod Hull saga continues and much more!
A little late (to be fair, we did warn you it would be) but we actually made it to the big number.Three years, 10 months and 12 days ago the first episode proper of TCD (sorry, Lucy) was published and there probably isn't a one of us that would have thought we would be here, 1414 days later, offering up a bi-centennial chapter whilst aboard a boat.And in all honesty this one was about as wacky as they come, with the irrepressible Nick Beggs joining in, taking over and introducing us all to jazz origami. Now I know what what it must have been like to interview Rod Hull and Emu.Anyway thanks to all of you that have come along for the ride, especially those of you who have embraced your inner purpleness. It really has meant a lot to both of us.Love you all…hTCD Merch StoreBecome Purple and support the showThe Invisible Man Volume 1: 1991-1997The Invisible Man Volume2: 1998-2014FacebookInstagramWebsite
#493 Weed Charades - Richard's kids are unimpressed by his appearance on Top of the Pops 95 and provide a scathing critique of his work. His guest is a man with 8 mind-blowing facts about himself, Ross Noble (though an audience member called Kirsty also stars). They talk mainly about frozen things, Ben or Jerry's funeral, Rod Hull in a freezer and being buried in an ice rink, but also some fantastic stories about appearing on the Australian Apprentice, blowing up a woman, selling cursed sand and responding to Lord Sugartits in the board room. Also some amazing news about Brian Blessed and the birth of a brand new game show, that might not entirely work in audio format (or might be much much better).

Rod Hull made loads of live action tv shows about living with an emu and being chased around by a witch, and when he was given the chance to write and star in a cartoon, he also made that about living with an emu and being chased around by a witch.

Hey celestial beings, Linda and I are back and have we got a show for you! Linda has kicked off her new job as a school secretary and, oh boy, how things have changed since her school days! Gone are the days of the smoke-filled staff room. Instead, she's enveloped in conversations that are both enlightening and, let's be honest, a little banal. But don't worry, she fits right in. Ever heard of Rod Hull and Jim Bowen? Well, they've made"calls" from the other side and you won't want to miss what they hadto say. As if that weren't enough, Carl Swanson sends in a busker recordingfrom the East Midlands. Imagine forgetting the lyrics while you're busking! Cringe-worthy or hilarious? You decide. Richard De long pops by to play some wonderful spooky folk music but hold on to your hats, because we have a haunted charity shop story that will leave you bewildered. Imagine a £20 artwork so eerie it turns your family's life upside-down and even has the dog growling. Yes, it's that strange. Then, hold your breath as Greg Perkin talks about a ghostly child captured in a photograph onboard an empty airplane. Don't believe us? Well, you'll have to join Patreon to see the proof! Go on, be a sceptic, and check it out at www.patreon.com/clintonbaptiste. You've got problems, we've got solutions. In 'Fate or Fortune,' we read your letters which tackle everything from cancelled holidays to struggling friendships. Lastly, David Allen joins us from Stockton for a chat. He's got a bone-chilling tale involving his mother's house and a football that's got a mind of its own—or does it? Only one way to find out, tune in!

To help you navigate this weeks episode some of you may well need a little help.You see when you get a couple of blokes from loosely the same time, and roughly the same neighbourhood, and they get into a groove then they are going to drop in a few cultural references that are, for want of a better phrase, a little oblique.So you might want to have the following nuggets of information to hand;Basil Brush A children's TV character predominantly from the 60's & 70's. Basil was a Red Fox with a voice based around the actor Terry Thomas.More about BasilThe Three Bees of Napoleon Not necessarily as described in the episode, but then again what is. Certainly a link between the three bees and the the infamous Emperor himself.More about the three beesRod Hull & Emu Another puppet character (and puppeteer in this case) that transitioned from kids TV to light entertainment and chat shows.

A brief reprieve from Mrs ADHD as she had to be somewhere else, episode 70 sees The ADHD Adults Alex and James discuss the use of CBT in ADHD . The episode includes the usual soporific psychoeducation on the subject delivered by Alex the Psycho-education Monkey, personal reflections on the topic and 'top tips' that might actually be useful for once. 'What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" returns with Alex being 1-0 up for the year, and Alex butchers the usual correspondence.

'Twas the night before Christmas and through MountPeg Towers, bottles of port, red wine and brown ale had been strategically placed into a series of time-lock-release safes to ensure an even spread of gradual inebriation throughout the twenty-fifth thereby ensuring it's not all gone after two hours. Yes, the day is almost upon us and The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour's festive celebrations peak once more with the god-tier array of light entertainment name-dropping that is ITV's 1972 showcase, All Star Comedy Carnival (that's right, the one from every fifth-or-so Steps Up The Mountain). With Blair, Grayson, Tarby, Wogan, Rod Hull, Moira Anderson AND PEGGY MOUNT, everything you have ever wanted waits in here...

Followed by a painful Peaks of Slimness massage, which was like getting a massage from Rod Hull and Emu! In the meantime, Liz has visited the Spirit of Christmas fair in London, coming back with a lovely gift idea for perfume and jewellery lovers. She has also been working on the website creating resources for their audience, including a philanthropy guide for people who want to help others via the internet.

Everyone Dies In Sunderland: A podcast about growing up terrified in the eighties and nineties
In today's show we revisit the time in 1999 when a Northumberland doctor casually admitted to killing 300 people in a local TV interview.I'm genuinely surprised you don't remember.Doctor David Moor was a much loved GP who would often appear in the regional media as a local medical expert. But one such appearance would lead to him facing a murder charge for helping an apparently terminally ill patient to die. But was Britain's approach to end-of-life care what was really on trial? And if this was murder, does that mean the Queen's Granddad got murdered too?40 years earlier another doctor – John Bodkin Adams – had found himself in a similar position. Was Adams a pioneering doctor who changed the face of palliative care? Or was he lethally useless and more of a danger to his patients than their medical conditions? Or he was he, in fact, literally Britain's most prolific serial killer?Along the way, there's an establishment cover-up, clandestine sexual relationships, clay pigeon shooting fatalities and a welcome(ish) return of Gareth reading poetry. We also revisit 1999. Rod Hull dies. Whizzer and Chips is nowhere to be found. Kiwi-flavoured 20/20 is consumed. Everyone talking about epigenomics apparently. Nothing like Prince described it. Trigger warning: This show discusses issues surrounding end of life care and assisted suicide throughout.You can reach us on email everyonediesinsunderland@gmail.com, on Twitter at @everyonediespod, on Facebook and Instagram. Our theme music is usually the song “Steady Away” by Pete Dilley and can be found on his album Half-truths and Hearsay which you can/should buy/stream here: ttps://petedilley.bandcamp.com/album/half-truths-and-hearsay But for a third show in a row it isn't.

Hello again, nostalgia lovers, and welcome to another episode of The Football Attic: Rewind. For this episode, we're jumping into the Attic Time Cupboard and heading back 42 years to December 16th 1979. Why? Well apart from 'why not?', we wanted to watch an old episode of ITV's The Big Match and tell you what we saw. Among the many delights on offer this time around: - Brian Moore once again turns his back on the giants of English football to focus instead on Second Division Chelsea, - Rich paints the slightly inappropriate picture of him and his brother in their underpants wearing cowboy hats (well he was young at the time), - We discuss the improbable coming together of Rod Hull, Emu and Snoop Dog on a low-rent Channel 4 TV show, - and we get our first sighting of a dog on the pitch which, we presume, must have been happening virtually every week during the 1970's. As well as all that, we defiantly fail to laugh at several referees experiencing misfortune and discomfort, contemplate the miraculous popularity of grapefruits four decades ago, and commit unflinchingly to give Bruce Forsyth his own spot in all future episodes. What more could you possibly ask for? Well, there's always a link to this episode of The Big Match (https://bit.ly/3iDunvv), of course. That would be handy. Apart from that, not a lot, we hope...
#18 Two Men in a Field with Walkie Talkies and it's All Clear - Psychic Richard manages to divine the life of someone in his front row merely by looking at him, though what he finds out about this person's nipples will change your life forever. His guest this week is the Rod Hull faced comedian James Acaster. You will find out what it's like to survive three car crashes and two train derailments, how much you could expect to earn selling slurpies in Kettering in the 1990s and what it is that draws the police to conspiracy theorists. Acaster also completely Mitchells the new emergency question. But has he ever seen a Bigfoot? You'll have to wait until the end of the podcast to find out. But it's unlikely I reckon.The videos of these shows are now available for FREE on iTunes and YouTube and vimeo.

Everyone Dies In Sunderland: A podcast about growing up terrified in the eighties and nineties
In this very special episode, Everyone Dies in Sunderland teams up with the wonderful Jenny from Its Murder Up North to take a look at the crimes of Hartlepool-born multiple murderer Arthur “The Fox” Hutchinson, one only 23 prisoners to be serving a whole life tariff. Don't compare Bold the Fox Cub to a murderer though – call him “Slapstick Bundy” or “Twat Mustard”.In September 1983 the police left Hutchinson unattended by an open window at Selby police station. Three people – a family celebrating a wedding – would lose their lives before he was recaptured. He would spent his time on the run “taunting” the police with letters and calls in which he tried desperately try to make the nickname “The Fox” happen, boasted of being “the master of disguise” (sunglasses) and insisted HE HAD NEVER BEEN TO WORKSOP. Not so much of a criminal mastermind that he hadn't left his teeth marks in a block of cheese at the crime scene though. We also take a look at 1986, learn that Matthew Broderick was involved in almost as many deaths as Arthur Hutchinson while holidaying in Northern Ireland and discuss innocuous things which scared you as a child, including Family Ness and Fraggle Rock (John) Bananaman (Jenny), Playdays (Claire) and Short Circuit on the Commodore 64 (Gareth).Clare has bad moussaka at a wedding (I think that's what the aubergine emoji means) Gareth gets nostalgic for acid rain. John ruins a school assembly. Jenny hijacks a school bus. Jim Davidson gets punched in the face by a werewolf. Along the way: Radioactive Sheep! Incest! The not dissimilar fates of the crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger and Rod Hull! Basil Brush's dark origin story! More onstage fatalities! You can reach us on email everyonediesinsunderland@gmail.com, on Twitter at @everyonediespod, on Facebook and Instagram. Our theme music is the song “Steady Away” by Pete Dilley and can be found on his album Half-truths and Hearsay which you can/should buy/stream here: https://petedilley.bandcamp.com/album/half-truths-and-hearsay I am Rod Hull https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQsRClW77_4When we talk about dying, it feels like a pipedream
Prince definitely does not* get a mention, but Rod Hull's Pink Windmill gets some rare praise and Deryck Guyler's washboard playing takes it's place alongside some of the musical greats. Aaah Yeees, Headmaster! Once again, satire, humour and comedy genius are fairly absent but it's another fun episode taking a nostalgic journey through the past in The Rotten Retro Time Machine.

If you’re easily grossed out then probably best to cover your ears for this one… in honour of the spookiest time of the year we’re digging around words with gruesome origins. From black books to black boxes, sarcasm to travel, and from loopholes to chivvying along, we uncover the often bloody backgrounds to these seemingly innocent terms.

We begin our "Pour de France" pods by looking back at the first 3 stages through Provencal rosé-coloured spectacles; including the olive oil-soaked Grand Depart which was wetter than Rod Hull's roof. There's talk of Pinot, pile-ups and Picon, biscuits, bikes and botty wipes, , weapons of Grasse distinction, dead dancers, and salads with no 'jackets' required. https://buff.ly/34O0L6i
We've got no intro music. And no family quiz or old school Top of the Pops to talk about. So, how will we open this week's show? Rod Hull and Emu, that's how! Following on from our recent BAFTA special, we've caught up with some winning shows we missed first time round. We review the first series of Race Across The World (4:10), Stath Lets Flats (13:14) and The End of the F***ing World (19:13). Plus, Elaine made Mark watch the first episode of new Channel 5 psychological thriller, The Deceived (27:08). Safe to say, Mark had strong views... Our Date Night film is gothic revenge drama The Crow (1994) (35:17). Which became, quite frankly, an excuse to talk about goth clubs we went to in the 90s.

Comedian Branson Reese joins Nick and Lars to watch an episode of Emu's Pink Windmill Show, a live-action kids' variety show starring British comedian Rod Hull and his emu puppet, Emu. It's most famous for incredible dancing from its cast of child actors, but the episode that we watched also included witches, robots, and lots of confusing British geographical names. Topics discussed include mismatched socks, environmentalism, and motorcycle tragedies. Send your emails to letters@breakfastquest.net!

RHLSTP # 63: Stewart Lee - This Morning With Richard and Nick. Richard is joined by his erstwhile partner Stewart Lee to chat about This Morning With Richard Not Judy. Stew discovers that there was nearly a very different host, they chat about the Edinburgh Fringe genesis of the idea and how they managed to give away a car, the terrible fate of Histor and Pliny, how ice and gas played a part on the stand-up circuit and the Rod Hull sketches that never were. They are then joined by Paul 'Curious Orange' Putner and Trevor 'Small-Face' Lock to chat about the gravity behind the gravity sketch and how Mark E Smith responded to the Curious Orange.

Most sane people want peace in Palestine but there are two sides to every problem and Israel has its own safety to protect. Who is really to blame for the crisis? Can we be surprised when people protest because prices are going up when there is no increase in wages and 26% unemployment in Spain. Are Uk MPs still making their bit on the side althoughthey are not alone as 130.000 scroungers are identified as being fit to work. The problem is where can they work? Eric bristow has put Rod Hull and Emu in the frame for groping and the general public are eying Bill and Ben, Weed and other puppets with great suspicion.
