They're a massive trilogy about the darkest, weirdest pop culture of the 70s and 80s - here's a tiny sample of what to expect...

WEST COUNTRY TALES: MISS CONSTANTINE (1982) Marvellously creepy anthology from BBC South West. Each episode was based on real-life stories sent in by viewers, like a dramatised version of @forteantimes.bsky.social 'It Happened To Me' pages. Here, a dear old lady is plagued by ghostly intruders...
Lovely narration by Keith Barron, there.

The Two Ronnies had a penchant for blood-soaked comedy sketches, and Kenny Everett's crap DIY man, Reg Prescott, continued that fine tradition. Spraying blood and disembodied digits at 8pm in the evening!
I had a great time on John Mabey's 'Channel Hoppers' podcast, talking about the old telly shows (and theme tunes) that mean so much to me. Check it out on Spotify and Apple!
MONSIEUR MANGETOUT was one of the 1980s' stranger celebrities. Made famous in Britain thanks to his silent movie-style sketches on 'Just Amazing', he could eat just about anything, including crockery and even metal. Break out the Rennies, mum, he's starting on the cutlery!
TRILOGY OF TERROR (1975) TV horror anthology based on stories by Richard Matheson and directed by Dan 'Dark Shadows' Curtis. Karen Black stars in all three stories, and the one about the possessed fetish doll is the absolute standout. I'm not ashamed to say it scared the living stink out of me.
A huge thanks to everyone who joined my Patreon since its launch! Patrons have contributed some fabulous scars, and they'll be featured in a future episode of the Bunker Show! Sign up for £6 a month...
