Duration

I've had some email feedback asking if I can keep the podcast down to a length suitable for burning onto a CD in future. The gentleman in question likes to burn a CD and listen to it in the car. I just wanted to say that I'll be doing that in future, it makes perfect sense and I've been worrying about the podcasts getting too long anyway. The only downside is less music when we have a more talkative guest.

Paul.

Makes sense

Still looking forward to hearing episode 6, which I downloaded but haven't had the chance to listen to yet ...

CD length

That's a very good idea. Not that we don't enjoy the full 90+ minutes, but I can see the benefit of listening in the car - having said that I tend to stick it on the iPod and then listen while walking. One of these days I must get a car radio that takes a USB connection.

It was great to hear Darren again, seems like ages since we saw him last - splendid fellow and genuinely interesting and enjoyable to listen to. I recall spending several hours in the Workers Beer Tent at Glastonbury with him back in 1990 chewing the fat (or possibly the cud).

If there's a basement or two full of Hors d'Oeuvres I wonder if it'd be worth sussing how many of which issues and finding some way of selling them to interested fans?

Oh, and by the way...what colour underpants does Roy wear then? (grin)

Hors d'Oeuvres

Hors d'Oeuvres is usually in demand on ebay.

Just listened this morning.

Just listened this morning. Good show again. It was interesting to hear that stuff from Darren about the fanzine, Awareness etc. I got into Roy in 1987, and it brought back a lot of memories. Also, I too have just got The Prisoner 40th Anniversary boxset (my bestest Xmas present!). The 'Don't Knock Yourself Out" documentary was fascinating. McGoohan clearly lost it towards the end.. shouting at directors and really fighting with the cast!

Anyway, keep up the good work with the Podcasts. Any chance of interviewing the main man himself in future?

Podcast 6

Another fine piece of journalism Paul, nice to get Darren's views on things, from his very close involvement. 

It's spooky, as I have just been reading the prisoner article in Hors D'oeuvres 5.
