Direct from PG Towers, join social historian Dr Lee Arnott and TV Producer Dave Moor for a lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture from yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. This week, we cast our gaze on the BBC TV Panto 'Aladdin & The 40 Thieves' from New Years Day 1984. Featuring a Who's Who of 80's TV personalities from the world of light entertainment including Floella Benjamin, Sarah Greene and Kenneth Williams to name but a few. This panto was what the term 'cultural appropriation' was invented for. But can this stop our enjoyment of this joyous extravaganza today?
Also, Dave finally cracks open the Christmas sherry and Lee dons his thermals to brave the wilds of Northumberland.
