Stand by thrills, spills and a stereophonic Moriarty as this week we examine the Series 10 episode The Silver Doubloons!
Joining Tyler is Graeme Lindsay-Foot who explains why he chose The Silver Doubloons as opposed to one of the more fondly remembered episodes and makes a strong case for it being a classic, despite its chaotic ‘end of term’ atmosphere. There’s a lot of love for Valentine Dyall and some time is spent discussing Harry’s waist measurement but Robert Morley fans should be warned: Tyler goes off on one about the man who has - as Graeme puts it - ‘a face like an affronted egg’.
In his youth Graeme was a fully paid up member of the Goon Show Preservation Society and he tells of attending a meal with Spike back in the eighties which was an unforgettable experience. He’s also full of praise for both Max and Ray and explains why he developed a much deeper appreciation for their musical spots within the shows.
