113: Jack Charlton, a coal miner and a bunch of obsessive Germans

Planet Porky

Spinning through the solar system it's the latest episode of Planet Porky the podcast. Today Mike Parry and Lesley-Ann Jones begin by paying tribute to those important figures we have recently lost including legendary England defender Jack Charlton, former Fairport Convention singer Julie Dyble and Elvis' grandson Benjamin Keough.
After that, it's the usual eccentric mixture with topics including: Brooklyn Beckham's self-worth, Kate Middleton, the unlikely destination for European crop circle aficionados, Robert De Niro and the things the mega-famous do for money, family holidays, Christine McVie, firing rockets to Mars during a pandemic, Lebanon, moving on from grief, David Bailey's chat up techniques and the latest release from Jarvis Cocker. They also discuss whether Beethoven will go down as the first ever rock star. (He's second on the Liszt!)
