  • S3 Ep10: JEREMY DYSON
    In a suitably macabre special episode for the season, Janet returns this week to speak to Jeremy Dyson, author, musician, screenwriter and of course, member of the League of Gentleman. Jeremy introduces his childhood book 'Haunted Britain' by the curiously named Anthony D. Hippisley Coxe; a brilliant, terrifying and often unintentionally amusing guide to the most haunted spots in the UK. Where, for example, might you see the ghost of Sir Francis Bacon's chicken? Which spot did young Jeremy beg his parents to take him to visit? Are the photos within the book bad or just haunted? How did this first book inspire Jeremy in his later career? Join Jeremy and Janet to find out! For pictures from the book please visit our instagram @twiceuponpod A Hat Trick Podcast Twice Upon A Time is presented by Janet Ellis Recording and editing by John Wakefield and Diggory Waite Produced by Caroline Raphael Executive Producer Claire Broughton Hosted on Acast.

  • S3 Ep9: PHYLLIS LOGAN
    Recorded live at the Chiswick Festival, Phyllis Logan (Secrets and Lies, Lovejoy, Downton Abbey) joins Janet to discuss her favourite childhood book Alison's Spy Adventure - a rollicking tale of espionage set in Scotland with Alison and her childhood friend solving the great mystery before the adults do. Sheila Stuart wrote 15 books in the Alison series in all, as well - wholly unconnectedly - a few guides to antiques. Little exists to be found about her private life but only that Sheila Stuart was her pen name (her real name was Gladys May Baker). Daughter of a minister and born in Scotland, she trained as a journalist in Dundee before going on to write the Alison books. Twice Upon A Time is presented by Janet Ellis The Producer is Caroline Raphael Recording and Editing by John Wakefield. Follow us on instagram @twiceuponpod for pictures of the guests and their books. Thanks to the Chiswick Book Festival and organisers Jo James and Torin Douglas. Hosted on Acast.

Andy's choice; 'Monsters of the Movies' by Denis Gifford (perhaps the greatest British comics collector in history) whose passion for monsters inspired a generation.
