IT’S OFFICIAL - we have set off for the 2026 leg of the Uncanny: Fear of the Dark tour! See you soon, Leeds Playhouse😱👻 Let me know if we’ll be seeing you tonight, #UncannyCommunity!

I highly recommend this drama by @paulmagrs.bsky.social which puts a magical spin on a true story about an encounter with David Bowie in the 1980s: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Just listened to The Goblin King. Absolutely magical! Thanks @paulmagrs.bsky.social

"Oh, there's a man with a clipboard, he'll know what's what!" This is glorious! Paul Magrs's radio play, THE GOBLIN KING AND ME pertaining to David Bowie. It has great humour & serious insights. Also, a marvellous cast including James Bolan and Susan Jameson: legends! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Just listened to the really lovely play "The Goblin King and Me" by Paul Magrs. A magical story based on a real-life meeting with David Bowie. It was broadcast on Radio 4 last week and is available on BBC Sounds on catchup. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

This is a very sweet play by @paulmagrs.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Just listened. Beautiful, and deserves to be a true story! We all wear masks, but only The Goblin King could create so many, so well. @manmademoon.bsky.social @bafflegabble.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

A genuine piece of magic from @paulmagrs.bsky.social.

I know I keep going on about this play of ours, but I’m so proud of it! It’s on bbc sounds for a few more days - my radio 4 play about Bowie. I hope you’ll like it! X www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Time for a bit of magic? @paulmagrs.bsky.social @bafflegabble.bsky.social @kenbentley.bsky.social scifibulletin.com/books/audiob...

I’m not crying you’re crying -The Goblin King and Me -listen to it now.

This is a lovely play. My favourite ever Culshaw performance in an utterly magical scene. Make sure you listen while it's on BBC Sounds. They notice what performs well.

Of all the hours of radio and TV dedicated to David Bowie this week, my favourite is this enchanting and moving drama by @paulmagrs.bsky.social - based on a true story which offers a glimpse of the gentle, complex, generous soul that lay behind that remarkable artist. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

If you need a little magic in your life - and who doesn’t, what with how things are - then treat yourself to a journey to the Labyrinth. Oh, there will be monsters and terrors, but there is real treasure and true magic in the end. (Thank you to @paulmagrs.bsky.social and all the cast)

So special. An apt celebration of #DavidBowie and his importance to many of us who needed magical guidance in our lives, young or old. And Daniel’s journey is an analogue to our marking the 40th anniversary of Labyrinth. ‘How you turn my world, you precious thing.’ www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Just listened to "The Goblin King and Me" by @paulmagrs.bsky.social and directed by @kenbentley.bsky.social for @bafflegabble.bsky.social. Seriously, this was such a wonderful piece of drama and such a brilliant story, and underneath all of that a really wonderful portrayal of neurodivergence (1/2)

"Just because people pretend not to see magic, doesn't mean it's not real." @paulmagrs.bsky.social on his usual magical form: The last ten or so minutes moved me to tears. Beautiful. #DavidBowie #Labyrinth

Listen now on BBC Sounds! Radio Times: “This is something very special… magical realism with a heart.” The Observer: “The tone echoes that old-fashioned, twisty coming-of-age movie Labyrinth beautifully.” Pick of the Day in Telegraph, Daily Mail and The Times www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m... #bowie

If you enjoyed my radio play 'The Goblin King and Me' yesterday, could you please post about it or share the link to BBC Sounds with your family and friends..? It's so easy to miss these things and it's available to listen to for the next week. Thank you! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Paul Magrs' play on Radio 4, The Goblin King and Me, is truly wonderful. Do take 45 minutes to have a listen. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Oh what an absolute joy that was. Beautifully written. Such a treat. Everyone check out the Goblin King and Me on radio 4/BBC sounds. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m... Thanks @paulmagrs.bsky.social @bafflegabble.bsky.social

Lovely mention by @juderogers.bsky.social in @theobserveruk.bsky.social for our radio drama The Goblin King and Me. observer.co.uk/culture/audi... Listen today at 2.15pm on BBC Radio 4!
