The Red Hand Gang/The Cannon And Ball Show | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour Episode on Amazon Music Back once again for the retro disaster; P. Mount ranter, with the ill behaviour! Yes, the new series of The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour starts right NOW with a year-by-year rummage into the decade which truly formed us... This week It's 1980, and what better way to begin our nostalgic odyssey than hanging around with the cool kids in The Red Hand Gang as they risk tetanus infection in the name of mystery-solving? Then we switch channels for half an hour of prime comedy beef in the company of The Cannon And The Ball, as the cut-price duo are joined, bolstered and ultimately enhanced by our one and only guiding light: Dame Peggy Mount. Have NBC really commissioned an entire crime series with the sole intention of showcasing the most badass library-music to ever exist? Was Peggs given the chance to read the script for her Cannon & Ball guest appearance before the cameras started rolling? Would anyone like an apple? There's only one way to find out...

Runaround/Family Fortunes | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour Episode on Amazon Music The energetic arrival of our eponymous hosts Doctor Velvet and Blackout is heralded this week amidst chaotic, trauma inducing cacophony, extraneous luminosity and (to adopt the apt regional parlance), some bang-on Callard and Bowsers, courtesy of Mr Michael Reid and his Runaround programme. After enjoying a harmonious recital by pop quartet The Jags, we move swiftly onward to prime time entertainment that tests the genius of the genes where the Killeen and Price families contend with each other in the inaugural episode of Family Fortunes hosted by Mr Robert Monkhouse O.B.E. Have you ever wanted to learn about the mechanical intricacies of a three-wheeled Lambretta fire engine? Or perhaps you’ve wished to immerse yourself in the subtle nuances of silhouette portrait creation? What dish is associated with Spain? Why don’t ATV acknowledge the geographical existence of Welsh towns?

Wizbit/Odd One Out | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour Episode on Amazon Music Ever keen to test the contemporary legitimacy of old idioms, The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour has noted that while good things may come in small packages, it does not stand to reason that all small packages are good. And there are few things smaller and with more questionable good-ness than the subject of this week's podcast... In a Daniels-centric outing, Doctor Velvet and Blackout are joined by Ozzy Bognops to cast a critical eye over the seminal children's fantasy series Wizbit, before ramping up the tension with a nail-biting edition of the prime time quiz show Odd One Out. How many excuses can three people give for watching programmes which really are not aimed at them? How many questions does Michael want to get right before he gives someone else a chance to play the ruddy game? And how many other podcasts do you know that would cover a Paul Daniels double-bill where neither of those is his magic show? It's fingers on Play Buttons and first to find out wins...

The Spaceman And King Arthur | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour But lo, something is in the air! The evenings are lighter, the breeze is warmer and the studio at MountPeg Towers might even be getting closer to its annual clean (don't hold your breath. Actually, holding your breath in there might be an idea). Yes, spring has sprung and drink will be drunk as Doctor Velvet and Blackout presage the new series of The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour with a quintet of special episodes focusing on big screen entertainment; albeit viewed on a small screen...The first cinematic gem to stagger through the mists of time is Disney's 1979 live-action historical sci-fi farce, The Spaceman and King Arthur (aka Unidentified Flying Oddball), with a welter of British talent and perhaps more sauce than one might expect for this sort of dish.Just how loose can The Science be in a script, before it can no longer be legally classified as science-fiction? Just how tense can an auditorium of accompanying adults become as a film tries to balance Arthurian legend hat-tips and a running joke about bongo mags? And which of our impressionable hosts was brainwashed by the film into belting bits of old metal with a hammer in order to make magnets?Our Feature Presentation is one way to find out...The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.

Will Mr Ball ever return to the Television Centre to record the episode about cryogenics that Blackout truly desires? Should the Hover-Chair(s) become a sanctioned item of furniture in the home of today? Can a successful title sequence be produced from PVA glue and blue card?

Punchlines Christmas | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour In the twinkling of a star above a stable, our couple of Christmas critics return to a festive finger-buffet of contemporary celebrities from 1982 courtesy of London Weekend Television’s Punchlines, (with Lennie Bennett). Like any culinary collection, there’s bound to be the odd tasteless offering and this Christmas Eve broadcast is no exception. A seasonal stockpiling of contemporary comedic talent on the twenty-fourth should leave us laughing well into the twenty-fifth shouldn’t it? Shouldn’t it?! Can the cut of metaphorical beef that manifests between two celebrities be weighed on the average-sized set of butcher’s scales? Was the pullover-clad host on commission from Ferguson? And just who….WHO…is Albert Pontefract? Listen on for some answers to these important questions… The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.

Watch: The Nativity/To The Manor Born | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour Christmas may only come once a year, but The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour presents an unholy trinity of seasonal specials to keep you warm during the darkest month. Doctor Velvet and Blackout invite Ozzy Bognops round for yuletide reminiscence, irreverent chat and lashings of booze as they delve into the televisual archive and summon the ghosts of Christmas past...Selecting from the festive kids' menu our trio draw the curtains, flip out the screen-glare shields and brace for a dead leg and an all-expenses-paid trip to Bethlehem in Watch. Then it's back in good old blighty where everything is refined, restrained and furiously beige as tradition meets aspiration in To The Manor Born.Will there really be Peace On Earth when a TV presenter ends up stranded in Television Centre alone with a pair of scissors, two cameras and four hundred empty shoeboxes? Will there be goodwill toward men when a prime-time Christmas Special is commissioned seemingly in the second week of December and with the budget of a clip-show?

Christmas with Val Doonican-The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour They said it couldn’t be done, but here we are at last - the twelfth day of Pegmas and the final seasonal serving of treasured, televisual treats. As was staunch tradition once upon a telly time, Christmas Eve bestowed upon us a lavish light-entertainment repast in the form of BBC’s Christmas with Val Doonican from 1986. Messrs Velvet, Blackout and Bognops pull on festive knitwear, a well-pressed slack and get seated ‘pon rocking chairs ready for the musical festivities. Does every rented luxury property in Maidenhead come with a horse-drawn carriage as the de rigour form of commute? Where can I buy reproduction garments so that I may cos-play Val Doonican? Do we wish you, our devoted listener, the very merriest Christmas? Yes, we most certainly do. Enjoy this final episode of the series and in particular have a chuckle at the end; it’s crackers.

Leap In The Dark | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour It's the question asked by anybody of an inquiring mind (and the hosts of The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour are no exception) when faced with baffling circumstance and an unexplained outcome: Did that actually just happen? In fact, so determined are they to get to the bottom of it all that they've asked The ExtonMoss Experiment to come round and help solve the mysteries of the universe. Or of Bristol, at the very least.Yes, passing under the rickety analytical equipment knocked together in a remote barn is BBC2's landmark cultural exploration of the outré from 1973, Leap In The Dark. Covering an array of psychic phenomena such as astrology, clairvoyance, divining and walking around a field for hours on end with sticks, this thoughtful yet playfully sceptical magazine-show is sure to raise more questions than it answers...Is Gordon Snell sponsored by Lee Bender? Is Linda Blandford sponsored by BUPA? And has Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water still not sponsored that cottage yet?Wave your dowsing rod over the Play button and you might just find out...The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.

First Class/Dempsey & Makepeace | The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour Episode on Amazon Music In the hallowed halls of MountPeg Towers, young Doctor Velvet and Blackout like nothing more than taxing their brains to a good quiz and/or mystery. And having gained a reputation for all the nothing, Pod Producer Ken has finally sat them down in front of some fast-paced 1980s excitement... It's off to the BBC first, as The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour takes a predictably arch look at Debbie Greenwood's esteemed TV kids' quiz First Class, following which it's a trip to the big smoke courtesy of ITV; to fight crime, greed and questionable wardrobe choices with Dempsey & Makepeace. Has the old adage of always running new clothes through the machine before wearing them not extended as far as the Metropolitan Police? Has the new adage of always having a goth and a gamer on your pub quiz team ever payed off quite so well as here? And which of our hosts was responsible for the Bank of England Inflation Calculator website crashing earlier this week? First one on the buzzers to press Play wins one of them t-shirts off the market... The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.

Murder, She Wrote-The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour Ah, the haunting season seems to arrive earlier every year, and what better way to avoid the hustle and bustle of shoppers laden with absinthe, last minute pumpkins and Tripe Trifle™ than to join the hosts of The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour as they lean into the dark nights with some terrifying television? This year's Hallowe’en special is a callback to the podcast's formative roots, as Murder She Wrote's Night Of The Tarantula comes under supernatural scrutiny. Leaving the good folk of Cabot Cove to manage without her for a few days, Jessica Fletcher takes a jaunt down to Jamaica to visit an old friend. But while she's packed the sort of wardrobe that could be used as an Ishihara test, it soon becomes apparent that Jess has forgotten to bring the spider-repellent. And the snake-repellent. Oh, and zombie-repellent… How many glasses of wine can you get out of a bottle from the duty free at Sangster International airport? How many different accents can you crowbar into a single mansion lived in by one family? And how many lines in the sand has Danny La Rue crossed for Angela Lansbury to dish out this sort of theatrical vitriol? Press Play before Arnold races out of the door, and find out… The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour is a free podcast from iPorle Media, which holds production copyright.
