PantoSplaining is a visual investigation into a panto poster of yesteryear. But it works in audio too, if you can't see the visuals you'll still enjoy it just as much! Here's a clip to prove it from our latest ep, we go back to Bradford in 79!

Please repost for awareness!

Somebody out there must know what the Magic Pop Glade was
We were intrigued, bewildered and are now mildly obsessed by The Magic 'Pop' Glade which was part of the Bradford panto Dick Whittington in 1979.

If you know *anything* about it, what it was, why it was or how it was, PLEASE let us know.

Paul and Peta Page's "Hot Dogs" had been previously covered on @looksunfamiliar.bsky.social, and sound like *quite* the act.

Tut. No mention of The Man From Del Monte - Osmond Brian Jackson - being born in Bolton. He was married to Eunice Gayson for 9 years. She was ‘James Bond’s love interest in the first two Bond films’ according to Wikipedia.

Why not spend the day singing along with Bill Maynard's 1979 single 'Stock Car Racing Is Magic' - but only after listening to us telling you all about it in the latest PantoSplaining podcast.

Do you like stock car racing and glam rock? Well, have I got good news for you.
In the new PantoSplaining we investigate exactly what Bill Maynard had been doing in the year leading up to his appearance in Dick Whittington, with surprising results...

Star of yesteryear Yana was not in this panto but her one-time husband Alan Curtis *was*, so obviously we went down that diversion.
