Andrew Nette returns to Derry and Toms as we continue to muse over some formative telly, novelisations and other stuff but on this occasion to talk about Nigel Kneale's enduring and iconic character Professor Bernard Quatermass (and a load of other digressions, naturally, including brief musings on a favourite mercenary war flick). We roam around the original Hammer films, the impact of Quatermass on the zeitgeist and, most specifically, the 1979 serial and its novelisation by Nigel Kneale himself.
HUFFITY-PUFFITY PUFF!!!

You need to have Cheech and Chong on as guests. They can promote their Space Gummi for a topical Moorcock-esque turn into the flat circle... MM was in Hollywood at the saMMe time the classics; ala Up In Smoke, where being produced. Tell me he never crossed their paths... The open minded crowd he associated with where on way harder that C&C
