RIP Jim Franklin
more from same (The Goodies)
The GoodiesWe are saddened to share the news that Jim Franklin, who directed many Goodies episodes, passed away in August 2021 after a long illness.  In a 2020 interview in honor of "The Goodies" 50th ​‌anniversary, Graeme Garden said, "Jim was a brilliant film editor, with a real feel for comedy. He cut the film sequences in the first series, then became director for the second series onward. He was meticulous in his preparation and drew detailed storyboards, which ensured that all the gags worked as intended, and also saved an awful lot of time and money. We admired him greatly and were very fond of him."  The Radio Times article (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/goodies-50th-anniversary-graeme-garden-interview/ ) goes on to say "Franklin and his amazing outdoor sequences had a lot to do with The Goodies' success at Montreux television festival, winning the Silver Rose in 1972 for the legendary Kitten Kong episode, and again in 1975 for the homage-packed story, The Movies."

Our thanks to Henri Phillipps and Ben Rohde for finding this article about Jim's passing: https://euroweeklynews.com/2021/09/24/james-jim-lyford-franklin-october-18-1934-august-11-2021/

2nd Goodies novella available for pre-order
more from same (The Goodies)
The GoodiesThe second Goodies novella from Chinbeard Books is now available for pre-order.  Join the team again for another Goodies-authorized adventure, with a forward by Robin Ince (and all sales benefitting a charity in honor of the late Tim Brooke-Taylor).

From the official product description:

"These are dark times for the BBC.
Unceremoniously axed by the new Prime Minister, it has been forced from the airwaves at the very moment it is most needed.

For there is a mystery afoot that threatens the very fabric of the nation or, at least, of Tim’s waistcoat.

A missing sherbet heiress. A mysterious chalk outline. A bilingual rodent with a secret past.

Oh, and a brand new true crime podcast just waiting to take the country by storm.

That’s right.

The Goodies are on the air and on the case ."

You can pre-order here: https://www.chinbeardbooks.com/apps/webstore/products/show/8264419

More Goodies novella info - Barnaby Eaton-Jones on Goodies Podcast 167
more from same (The Goodies)
The Goodies More information about the Goodies novella line's future has been revealed in the latest Goodies Podcast (167) which features an interview with writer and publisher Barnaby Eaton-Jones.

https://goodiespodcast.libsyn.com/167-new-goodies-novella-with-barnaby-eaton-jones

Some points from the interview include:

- The novella 'Avengers Dissemble' was based on the last fully-developed audio script (as opposed to what would've been the second audio episode) because it featured the return of 'Dame' Joanna Lumley

- The second novella has been written! By Kenton Hall, who helped to edit and contribute to the first novella

The half-hour interview covers a range of other novella aspects but keeps things spoiler-free. The book can still be ordered from:
