Here's a list of upcoming tv & radio shows of interest to Goodies fans. "(NEW)" indicates shows added since the last update (some of which may be repeats). It's advisable to check your local listings for schedule changes.

Feel free to let us know about anything that should be added to the list - contributions & corrections are always welcome! (Thanks to everyone who's been helping with the spottings!) 



(NEW) * Thurs, 16 Oct - "I've Never Seen Star Wars" with Tim on BBC Radio 4 at 18:30.  It can be heard online from www.bbc.co.uk/radio4 and will be available for a week after broadcast from Listen Again.


(NEW) * Sat, 18 Oct - "The Archive Hour" this day is entitled "How Radio Comedy Changed a Nation" and includes contributions from Barry Cryer, among others.  The program will air on BBC Radio 4 at 20:00-21:00 and can be heard online at www.bbc.co.uk/radio4.  I don't know if the show will mention any of Tim, Graeme, & Bill's projects, but it sounds interesting - "Nicholas Parsons explores how radio comedy has developed and how it reveals much about the way the British live. Through rarely-heard archive material and interviews with writers, performers and comedians, he investigates the impact that radio comedy has had upon the nation. Including contributions from Paul Merton, Barry Cryer, Ray Galton and Alan Simpson and Sanjeev Bhaskar."


(NEW) * Tues, 21 Oct - "The Wright Stuff" on Five at 09:00-10:30.  Bill is scheduled to be a guest on this day.  (thanks to wackywales for posting this info in the club's forums)


(NEW) * Thurs & Fri, 23-24 Oct - "The Truth About Killer Dinosaurs", presented by Bill, is repeated on UKTV Documentary each day at 9:00.  I suspect part 1 is airing Thursday and part 2 on Friday, but you should check your local listings to confirm this.
