Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to.

Joining Tim this time is director Matt Lee, who's rifling through lines of code in search of ITV comedy pilot Wake Up! With Libby And Jonathan, Cheers-prefiguring sitcom Park St. Under, ideologically dubious computer game Terramex, They Might Be Giants' 'Dial-A-Song' service, Cola Spread and an attempted regional ban on Garbage Pail Kids. Along the way we'll be critically evaluating Leslie Grantham's 'shocked' face, revealing how not to wow the opposite sex by listening to the b-side of Birdhouse In Your Soul, and recalling some favourite quotations from Beer: A Book by George Wendt.

If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. If Park St. Under don't do coffees, then I'm sure Cheers will be along to 'borrow' the idea soon enough.
