Our Guest President this week, leading the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club, is none other than the star of EastEnders and the legendary Brush Strokes, Karl Howman!
Join us as guest President Howman leads us on a ramble through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the tiller of the good ship toss!
First stop is destination number 334: Cooperatives. Well most people know what the Co-Op is, but what about actors and their cooperatives? A fascinating old ramble begins as we immerse ourselves in the popular culture of the 1980s!
Next we're heading toward 481: Classical Greek writing. An excellent choice of number by the magical bingo machine machine because there are parallels to explore between the world of the ancient Greeks and Mulberry, the wonderfully gothic paranormal sitcom in which Karl starred.
Our final destination is 941- The General History of Europe (British Isles). From Doggerland to the Spitfire’s fighting above Britain via the Shipping Forecast, this is a ramble which covers an awful lot of ground.
Brace yourselves!
After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, to relax after what is a truly fascinating ramble.
Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club is a free-associating conversation, involving very special guests. It drops every Friday on every podcasting outlet known to man. We’d love it if you came along for the walk. If
nothing else, it’ll help you get your steps in!
