ITC Television Shows
ITC was a producer of quality television throughout the sixties and seventies. Featuring famous and breaking acting talent, quality screenwriters and a filmic eye for TV presentation, ITC created such iconic titles as The Saint, The Champions and Jason King. Which three titles will the regular hosts pick as their favourites? Is there any chance Kevin owns an ITC box set? And can Dave pronounce Riviera?

This is the last episode of series five. We will return in October with a bit of something to please most people. Unless a rogue AI infiltrates our system and churns out ten generic episodes on The Clangers.

El Pampero Cine
El Pampero Cine, the Argentine film collective, formed in Buenos Aires by Laura Citarella, Mariano Llinás, Agustín Mendilaharzu, and Alejo Moguillansky, has been honing its unique cinematic voice since 2002.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the foursome have delivered a compelling body of work, including their take on The Little Match Girl, the two-part Trenque Lauquen and La Flor, which clocks in at a staggering 808 minutes.

Phil, Kevin and Dave take a closer look at their brand of independent cinema, while trying their level best to get the pronunciations right. Will they succeed?

Borges and Magical Realism
Jorge Luis Borges. Argentinian poet, essayist and short story writer prolific from the 1920s onwards. Extraordinarily influential even though he wasn't widely known to north American or European readers until 1961. Also connected to the literary genre of 'Magical Realism' (M.R.). But was he a magical realist? And just what is M.R.?

Dave leads the discussion and uses "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" as an example of how tricky pinning down both M.R.and Borges is.

We can't even say if the moon is really there if you are not looking at it, that's how bad it gets. No wonder Kevin was nonplussed.

Complicating matters (yes, really) is that we originally planned this to be one episode with two topics, Borges, and El Pampero Cine. Both recorded on the same day, we are publishing both as separate episodes. Offering you sort of listen to one, get another one .... to listen to.

And to think, I used to work in marketing.......

Georg Schrimpf on Artnet site

Charles Sheerer on The Art Story site

Books
Authors to consider include:
Gabriel García Márquez, Isabell Allende, Jorge Amando and and nobel laureate Josze Saramago.
Salman Rushdie and A S Byatt. Umberto Eco, Toni Morrison and Angela Carter.

Film and TV
Very difficult, as all film and TV is a bit magical, a bit real.

Summer Recommendations 2 - Film
In the heat of summer why not retreat to the air conditioned cinema for a big budget blockbuster? Are there any? We discuss recent films we have seen, and discuss upcoming films we are excited to see and others not so. Kevin then gets to list actors whom bookies are backing for the role of Bond. Dave bets Kevin's list will be metaphorically yellowed and fading by the time someone is hired. If your ten year old is telling everyone they are going to be an action movie actor when they grow up, give Amazon a call.

Summer Recommendations No. 1
We have so many recommendations we are making two episodes. In this we discuss music, streaming, books and even art. Kevin tackles deep subjects such as Jazz, Rob wonders if Nicholas Cage has got what it takes to swing between skyscrapers on spider webs and Phil has been reading an almost definitive biography of The Velvet Underground. Dave gets to talk about astronomy, which is a big bonus for him because this podcast was almost about life, the universe and everything.

Plus he finally managed to add his links.

Next episode we discuss summer films.

It's 31 degrees outside, but in the coolness of the 5282 studio, Kevin interviews Tim Hann, formerly of Nikoli and I Concur, as he releases Planner_Tracker, the fifth album of his electronic ambient project, break_fold.

In just under an hour, they talk about growing up in Abu Dhabi, first guitar, Bright Young Things, influences, that BBC Maida Vale Studios session, playing Reading & Leeds Festival, and Hann's electronic ambient shift in 2015.

Depressing Musicals
Who doesn't love a big uplifting film musical? Dave. And quite a few people, if cinema audience numbers are anything to go by. What about musicals that deal with Fascism, recession, poverty, dashed hopes and the grim inevitability of the love of your life turning out to be a bit of an arse? Turns out there is a lot to think about - and discuss - when it comes to depressing musicals.

Kevin, Mel and Phil each offer a film to consider, and Phil then goes for two wickets in one over with a early Bollywood classic.

Remember, the hills are alive but it's the sound of jackboots marching towards you.

David Bowie Part Three
By the mid 70's Bowie is 'heavily self medicating' and suffering attendant delusions, paranoia and burn out. He decides to relocate to Europe, recording in France and Germany. He creates three masterpieces, the Berlin Trilogy. We suppose the Europe Trilogy had less of a ring to it.

And then Bowie officially declared the start of a new decade with Scary Monsters.

We discuss the impact and influence of this time, and Darren tells a classic Bowie anecdote, or two.

David Bowie Part Two

Following an epic Part One with Phil and Mel, we were unable to fit our Hunky Dory conversation in. So here it is, in all its glory, in Part Two. Then, we welcome music writer Steve Walsh to the studio to discuss The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, Aladdin Sane, Pin-Ups, Diamond Dogs and Young Americans. We talk about how Bowie constantly reinvents himself during this very creative period, while invariably leaving behind a whole host of loyal musical collaborators in his wake.

Look out for Part 3 in 4 weeks time, in which we'll be joined by Darren Worth, to discuss Station to Station, Low, Heroes, Lodger and Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps).

Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska

We have all our ducks in a row for this episode, discussing an album, a film and a program available on streaming.

After the success of The River Bruce Springsteen was burnt out and frustrated. Wanting to avoid the difficult studio production process of the previous two albums, the boss retreated to a secluded property and invested in a fairly new invention - a four track portastudio. What emerged was one of the iconic albums of the 20th century.

We talk about the creative process, his struggle to fully realise his ambition, and the deep connection all three presenters feel to this album.

We include the recent Nebraska 82: Expanded edition, the biopic Deliver Me From Nowhere, and the performance at the Count Basie theatre.

If you don't like Springsteen, Darren has some advice for you.

Meep Meep.

A brief chat Dave, Kevin and Rob had about Hauntology. Was it really scary, the 70s? Plus Freudians get the Rob treatment.

Hauntology 2

We return to Hauntology, the cultural phenomenon where some people feel that the media of their 1970s childhoods was decidedly weird.

The team ask who wanted to scare children, and why? Dave suggests there are four foundational 'truths' underpinning Hauntological content; the paranormal is real, the occult is real, UFOs are real and the end is nigh. Dave, Rob and Kevin discuss how these fringe ideas migrated to the main stream.

They then consider three writers whose content is at the heart of Haunted books, TV and film.

The episode rounds off looking at modern responses to the subject.

All this in just over an hour.

There is so much we could not cover, but just like The Daleks, Hauntology will be back.

Additional music not mentioned in episode

1
The Hardy Tree: Stagdale EP 1
Frances Castle’s accompanying music for her Stagdale graphic novel.
A TV composer recalls their school recorder practice and hires a new-fangled drum machine to create backing music for a childrens series set in 1973 tangentially involving Nazis, buried treasure and rural angst.
Theres an equally affecting EP 2, where two lives separated by three decades becoming increasingly entwinned. Frances recalls her 70s north London childhood, recalling the nearby 2nd world war anti aircraft battery position, and seeing contemporary bomb shelters being uncovered then filled in on the high street.

2
David Boulter: St Ann’s

Paul Wellers’ Stanley Road is an album with Hauntological themes dealing with love and loss and a dark cloud the sun just about kept at bay.
Likewise David Boulters mostly instrumental album concerns his love and melancholy for his street, in a part of Nottingham which changed rapidly in the 1960s and 70s. The rain was either arriving or leaving, the sun too bright to watch TV so you shut it out, and the new exciting homes were quickly suffering from national decline. What those homes replaced, old terraces with outside loos and ice inside the windows, were still talked about fondly. Your gran lived round the corner, everyone had a job.
All this is nicely captured in thirteen simple elegant tracks, with guitar, bass, recorder and toned down electronics.

3
Black Channels: Two Knocks For Yes
Proper scary. Poltergiests. Oscillators. Spoken word testament to the eerie and frightening.
One of only two releases from this radiophonic group, and anyone who has followed BBCs Uncanny and all that orbits it will be on familiar although not necessarily happy territory.

4
The Sodality of Shadows: Phantom Cities
Beats driven music for what sounds like the TV theme for a security services up against something uncanny drama. This time in the early 90s, in a weirdly derelict docklands. Time travel? Alternate history, in which Callaghan called the election at the right time and easily beat Thatcher? Whichever, it was an early role for Andrew Lincoln and The Sodality of Shadows get to grips with the half realities of any great city. Especially one prone to fog, temporal instability and the questionable relevance of a secret society that meets in Abingdon Grove.

5
Micro Moon: Figure in a Landscape
After the previous recommendations, something to lull you into an uneasy sense of calm. Electro acoustic psychogeography. Landscapes empty of people but not memory.

Chuck Norris Films and TV

If there was a Hollywood Walk of Kick Ass, Chuck Norris would have two fists planted in the cement. His films focus on martial arts, high octane action and don't bother much with introspection, romance or the multiverse. So not all bad. What is his legacy? How do his films compare to the big budget major studio fare of Schwarzenegger and Stallone? And just how did Norris become an internet meme sensation?

Discussing all this and more, we even recommend a Chuck Norris film you could watch with the family, especially if your family enjoy seeing stuff getting blown up and bad guys getting kicked through doors.

Your monthly delve into all that's culturally unmissable is back! Here's our comprehensive look at the best in music, film, streaming and even a book review, from Rob, Phil, Dave and Kevin.

With Project Hail Mary filling the mainstream slot, Bi Gan's Resurrection occupying the fringe, and a look at The Rise and Fall of the Madchester scene, we also dig deep into folk, jazz, blues and alternative, with the likes of Holly Golightly, Katherine Priddy, Eric Bibb, Miles Davis, Willow and Gorillaz. Plus much more!

Just don't ask Dave about the 10-gallon hat in the corner of the studio, which might have been left behind after our feature on Spaghetti Westerns. Or in another universe, it might be Dave's way of telling us he's finally embracing Country Music.
