This was a lovely programme. Brought me to tears a couple of times which is crazy. Love the community effort in getting one decommissioned pipe organ into it’s new home in London where it is loved and played. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

– good lord, Parikian, what happened to you? – they put me into that tumbledown hut… – and…? – then they made me watch a 1970s children’s programme while listening to 1980s jazz-funk. It was … – oh no – a Crackerjack Shakatak shack attack – you’re dead to me

Just been reminded of this photo of Gyles Brandreth wearing this sweater and what appears to be “it’s sexy time” face, and felt I should share

Gyles Brandreth leaning on a metal ladder while wearing pale trousers and a navy jumper emblazoned with a snake motif. The snake is green and yellow and appears to be coiled round his torso, its head on his shoulder. He is stubbly and looking at camera in what he presumably thinks is a mean and moody manner, and has a horrible centre parting in his hair, and a fringe parted into ‘curtains’

There now seem to be at least three artists (Zopp, Tom Penaguin and Fuzz Kitchen) whose mission is to recreate the 1970s Canterbury sound as exactly as possible. These guys might be the best. The resemblance to Hatfield and the North during the instrumental parts is uncanny. Lyrics are witty too.
