Joanne Sheppard: Gotta Lotta Fings On (1993)
Manage episode 314289779 series 3068806
The podcast that remains a shimmying vision in red through TV's past returns as Ben Baker talks to a guest about a programme that represents the Christmas period to them in some way. Today we go way off the beaten dusty road with the wonderful Joanne Sheppard who has been tormented by a trail for BBC One's slate of festive light entertainment for 1993 for nigh on three decades. Some of these episodes are a love letter to telly gone by, some are brutally honest therapy sessions and some are just hysterically funny conversations about the weirdos that we unwittingly allowed into our collective homes for generations. Fetch a Noel wrangler, throw your lamp at Jim Davidson and just BE THERE.
