  • 2024 Live Special: Peter Fleming's Woefully Inaccurate History of the BBC
    Dec 31 2024

    A recently dreamed live recording of the Edinburgh Fringe in another corner of the Peter Fleming Multiverse (TX: 22/08/2022).


    "Mark 100 years of the BBC in style with the befuddled children’s TV pioneer. Peter re-enacts classic clips from the archive, sets the record crooked and reveals shocking truths about Blue Peter, which we can’t put down in writing or we’ll get sued."

  • 2022 Christmas Special: Christmas Underground
    Dec 23 2022

    Mind the gap!

    In the crew quarters of an abandoned Tube station, Peter celebrates Christmas with a very old friend. But how will the search for his programmes get off the ground again if he’s still stuck beneath it?

    Features Peter’s legendary public information film A Bakerloo Christmas (1975), gallons of festive custard, and more eggs than could ever be safely consumed. Special thanks to Andy Barr, Ann Burgess and Kath Hughes.

    Happy Christmas to all of you at home!
