Talking Pictures TV Podcast

The first show of 2022 is here! Mel Byron and the team bring their wit and wisdom to some of the finest films and shows making up the Talking Pictures TV schedule in January. From The Outer Limits to Maigret. From Violent Playground to Secret Army. There are appearances from Danny Kaye and Ed Wood along with some very fine music.

We celebrate Talking Pictures TV's 5th birthday with a galaxy of film and TV talent, from a Tony Hancock classic to lesser-known gem starring Megs Jenkins. Marvel at Dirk Bogarde's mind actually being bent. Gasp as a grown man owns up to a love of David Essex. Along the way we meet Shirley-Anne Field, Vincent Price and a vat or two of acid and not one, but two, Roger Moores.

The earliest Hammer film still in existence, some Technicolor noir, a lesser-known Alec Guinness film and more make up what's on offer in this edition of the podcast dedicated to the UK's favourite television channel. Join Mel Byron and the team as they discuss these and more gems showing on TPTV between 7th and 27th November 2022.
