| ISIHAC update plus other Goodies-related shows |
more from same (The Goodies) |
* BBC Radio 4 has been airing a new series of "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue" on Mondays. Next Monday's episode will actually be a repeat of the show recorded at the Edinburgh Festival earlier this year, since the final two episodes of the new series haven't been recorded yet (due to Tim & Graeme having been in Australia for a month). The final recording session is on December 18th; the final two episodes of the new series should air on Dec 19th and 26th. All of the BBC Radio 4 episodes air Mondays at 18:30; each episode is then repeated the following Sunday. They are also available on Radio 4's Listen Again service for a week after the initial Monday broadcast. The shows can be heard worldwide via the internet at www.bbc.co.uk/radio4.
* The ISIHAC spin-off special "In Search Of Mornington Crescent" will air on BBC Radio 4 on Christmas Eve (Saturday, 24 December) from 11.00-11.30am. It can be heard online at www.bbc.co.uk/radio4.
* Tim's appearance in the Reeves and Mortimer series "Shooting Stars" is being repeated on Weds, 14 December on UKTV Gold at 3:25 and on UKTV Gold Plus 1 at 4:25. * Bill Oddie, along with ISIHAC's Barry Cryer and many others, will appear in a repeat of "The Comedians' Comedian" on Saturday 10th December on S4C from 23:45 to 02:35. "Presented by Jimmy Carr, The Comedians' Comedian counts down the top 50 comedians of all time, as voted by over 300 comedians, comedy writers, producers and directors."
* "Bill Oddie in Tiger Country" is being repeated by BBC 2 on Sunday, 18 December from 17:30 to 18:10.
* Graeme's appearance in "Peak Practice" will be repeated on ITV3 on Monday, 19 December from 14:15 to 15:15.
* On Saturday, 17 December BBC 7 will air "Sue Perkin's Christmas Comedy Stocking" from 09:00 to 10:30. I believe this special will include clips from several from several shows, including "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Christmas Carol" (an ISIHAC special) and "Tony Hawks' Twelve Days of Christmas" which included a contribution from Bill (though I don't know if his segment will be used in this special).
* A "Birding With Bill Oddie" marathon crops up on Friday, 23 Dec. UKTV Documentary is scheduled to air the repeats from 9:00-18:00 while UKTV Documentary Plus 1 will show them an hour later (from 10:00-19:00). Please check you local listings to verify this info.
* The final episode of "There'll Never Be Another", a five-part radio show about celebrated British comedians hosted by Graeme, was aired on BBC 7 this past Sunday. It'll be available through this Saturday night on BBC7's Listen Again service (available from www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7).
* "The Return of the Goodies" will be shown on 30 December on BBC 2 from 9:00pm-10:30pm. We'll send more details as they become available.
REGULARLY SCHEDULED REPEATS:
* BBC 7 airs old episodes of "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue" (with Tim and Graeme) and "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again" (with all three Goodies) on Mondays; they are available via Listen Again for six days after broadcast. The shows can be heard worldwide via the internet from www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7.
* "Bill Oddie's How to Watch Wildlife" is being repeated by BBC 2 on Tuesdays at 19:00. I also see it listed in the early morning on Mondays on BBC 1. Please check your local listings.
* Repeats of "Golf Clubs with Tim Brooke-Taylor" are being shown at various times on Discovery Real Time Extra (consult your local listings).

| Date and time for "Return of the Goodies" tv special |
more from same (The Goodies) |
thanks to Duncan Lilly for sending the following info from Digiguide to the goodies-l mailing list:
COMEDY: Return of the Goodies Channel: BBC 2 Date: Friday 30th December 2005 Time: 21:00 to 22:30 (starting in 30 days) Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes. (Widescreen, Subtitles)
I found a (probably subject to change) description of the show at http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2005/11_november/22/christmas_two.shtml:
"The Goodies Christmas Special
They're back, after 25 years. But did they ever really go away?
In this two-hour special, which blends documentary, archive, sitcom and audience participation, Bill Oddie, Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden break into their old office to present a show which explores their giddy rise to fame in the Seventies, the influence they and their programmes had on the nation, and attempt to explain why The Goodies haven't been on TV for so long.
They present the stories behind their finest moments and unearth some things which will be as much a surprise for them as they are for viewers, such as the story behind the Mary Whitehouse saga, and they also try to find out what happened to their three-seater bicycle.
Contributors and fans appearing on the show include Rolf Harris, Huw Edwards, Martin Freeman, Ronni Ancona, Tony Blackburn, Jon Culshaw, Mark Gatiss, Emma Kennedy and Phill Jupitus."

We'd mentioned last week that Goodies mugs had been added to the Playbill site although the page only had a temporary photo. The image has now been updated to one that clearly shows both sides of the mug.

| Goodies mugs now available on Playbill site |
more from same (The Goodies) |
After some fans reported seeing Goodies mugs for sale at the shows we asked Playbill if the mugs would be added to their tour merchandise website. In response the mugs are now available via the Playbill link (in the box on the right side of the page).
A little extra explanation is necessary - because Playbill's graphic designer is away on his honeymoon (congratulations!) the merchandise director stepped in to add the new item (so as not to keep us eager fans waiting). Unfortunately he had a bit of trouble adding the photos. If you move your mouse over the "Coffee Mug" link on the main merchandise page you'll notice that the photo only shows half the mug (I was told it is a "shy mug" ). You can see the entire image by clicking on the "Coffee Mug" link. The merchandise director admitted they aren't the best photos but hoped the fans wouldn't mind the placeholders until the graphic designer returns next week.
If you're planning to purchase the tour merchandise please consider supporting the club by using the link in the "Tour Merchandise" box on the right-hand side of the page.
