Listen to the wisdom of @colinmochrie.bsky.social

Could you mount a strong defence of why Series 1 Blackadder stands among the comedy greats? Not many can (or want to!) but I have done exactly that in this new Lord of Adders Black podcast. Take a listen via the link below. My bit starts 21:50 into the ep. shows.acast.com/663dc3b21f99...

Nicely done!

Always a pleasure to hear the boys... And I've long been a fan of Mrs Miggins.

Another great episode, lovingly smothered in a scarlet pimpernel sauce. And a great discussion on Series 1 and why it should not be ignored. Apart from the portrayal of Edmund. Now, I would like to discuss this Red Dwarf business, and one of our hosts not enjoying it... this is just NOT ON!...

So much for Eccles' theory, @goonpod.bsky.social ...

'Is there anything to be said for saying another mass?' seems to be government's attitude to AI.

I like the Carry On films but the lore is too confusing, impossible for modern audiences to accept these people could play a major part in the French Revolution AND lose their bras on camping holidays

Why is S1 Blackadder GREAT? I've got all the answers for you in my appearance, out today, on the Lord of Adders Black podcast. You can listen via the link below. My bit starts at 21:52 The rest of the ep's not bad either! Thanks in advance to anyone who listens. shows.acast.com/663dc3b21f99...

“Chiswick! Fresh horses!” The sound of hoofbeats ‘cross the glade around 21 minutes in from @pitchblacksteed.bsky.social

Brilliant episode on Fry & Laurie (from 2018). And especially nice to see Soupy Twists by @jemroberts.bsky.social get the love it deserves. (A new and updated version was released recently - no better way to while away a wet weekend!) shows.acast.com/ruleofthree/...

This week’s Major Star is Mrs Miggins, a welcome female addition to the sausage fest that is Blackadder The Third. Far from having a “brain the size of a sultana” she reveals herself to be a canny businesswoman with a floury finger on the pulse of the times. open.spotify.com/episode/5Iyy...

Good Morning 🙂! #petercushing #christopherlee #hammerfilms

My son, who is tall, dark, slim and has the suggestion of Christopher Lee about him, is going on a Halloween pub crawl tomorrow night. They all have to dress as classic horror monsters. He asked for my Amazon login as he was going to buy some Dracula fangs. Fair enough. Just checked my orders

'I believe, sir, that the Doctor is trying to tell you that he is happy because he has finished his book. It has, apparently, taken him ten years!' #Blackadder 3!

Genuinely delighted to download a PhD thesis from a university repository where the author has neglected to remove the words "BITCH THIS IS YOUR THESIS" from the filename.

It's an absolute joy to receive these messages. Thank you to all who have listened over recent months. We've got plenty more to come. Do keep spreading the word about our #podcast.

This, my friends, is The Flight Of The Conchords: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jLD...

Loved hearing Ian and Michael talking about one of the great underrated TV shows of the past 20 years. So much incredible stuff in this show - the plots, the songs, the guest stars, the characters. But just Brett and Jermaine in particular. Magnificent. Watch it - after listening to this of course!

Speaking of turmoil, it feels like there is a fair bit of it prevalent worldwide at the moment. However, a quick listen to this podcast episode, followed by @mocca1976.bsky.social choice of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds should do nicely. Another great ep from @thesoundofcmoffatt.bsky.social

Private Eye hits the nail on the head, as ever!

New episode! THE PRISONER OF ZENDA (1979) - with John Hewer pod.link/1569929507 Anthony Hope's classic novel about an imperilled King and his lookalike was adapted by Dick Clement & Ian La Frenais as a vehicle for Peter Sellers. Lacking in laughs but some nice Sellers business nevertheless

'Why, this year alone, he has spent £15,000 on banqueting(shouts of `boo! boo!’), £20,000 on perfume (members all hold their noses), and — most astonishing of all — an astonishing £59,000 on socks!' #Blackadder 3!

In some added Turmoil this week I've been notified that the show has earned its first copyright strike! I suggest listening to the unexpurgated episode ASAP in case they don't accept my response and I'm forced to remove and edit it. Tell your friends. Run, don't walk Bio.link/thesoundof

I have been a fan of musical comedy all my life: Tim Minchin, Tripod, Tom Cardy, Garfunkel & Oates, Eric Idle, even George Formby and Noel Coward. Despite this I have never seen Flight of the Conchords. After the lads recommendation with help from @thewatersoflove.bsky.social I shall do immediately!

You keep using the word hiatus. I don't think it means what you think it means.

In this special bonus episode, we look at New Zealand’s “fourth most popular comedy-folk duo” and their award-winning HBO show, which centres on Bret and Jemaine’s spectacular failure to take New York by storm. With guest star Chrissy 😍@thewatersoflove.bsky.social! open.spotify.com/episode/7z9t...

'Why is it that no matter how many millions of pairs of socks I buy, I never seem to have any? They just disappear! Honestly, you’d think someone was coming in here, stealing the damn things and then selling them off!' #Blackadder 3!

Ahead of tomorrow's episode I thought I'd share the cover and let you know that it deals with some pretty heavy themes. Some of the most personal and revealing interviews I've ever done and in my opinion totally unmissable audio.

Oh, just me appearing on another podcast! open.spotify.com/episode/7z9t...

What a lovely episode introducing me to a show I had heard of but never seen. Lots to enjoy here especially from @thewatersoflove.bsky.social

Goon Pod talked to David Quantick @quantick.bsky.social about NED'S ATOMIC DUSTBIN a couple of years ago podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/n...

Are there any podcasts around showcasing indie audio drama/fiction podcasts and discussing the medium in general?

'Now, this book of yours, tell me, what's it all about?' 'It is a book about the English language, sir!' 'I see! And the hero's name is what?' #Blackadder 3!

New episode! THE POLICY pod.link/1569929507 With Andy Bell @rhaglencymru.bsky.social The Goon Show had several fixations - plagues and disease, World War Two, the decline of Empire - and, as with this week's episode, insurance policies. Join us under a short, fat tent for The Indigestion Waltz!
