Bonus Episode 33: How Is This Guy Funded!? (The Underwater Menace Animation)

Surprise bonus episode drop! We are joined by our good friend Robert Lloyd as we do the inevitable and revisit The Underwater Menace in the light of the recent animation. Suffice to say, nuzzink in the vorld can schtopp us now!

 

Join us as we discuss Professor Zaroff’s carefully curated brand, the wonderfully snarky octopus, whether Jamie has been eating a bit too much haggis, counter-culture hippy vibes, BBC animation budgets, and Anthony gets incredibly nitpicky about colours. Meanwhile, Julie gets a little upset about the animation of Jamie, and the pairing back of his tartan…

 

If you would like to listen along with us, the animated version of this story is available from both Amazon US (https://amzn.to/3SKxOTo) and Amazon UK (https://amzn.to/3SLqcjJ).

 

We originally discussed this serial in our 38^th episode, Zar-off the Chain – check it out for a more detailed discussion of the plot here: https://bit.ly/4bq3d52
