Duelling Parkas
Liza and her listeners hark back to a time before health and safety, with tales of hair-raising exploits, unsanitary skip-diving and perilous play.
Liza and her listeners hark back to a time before health and safety, when perilous play was just part of your day. From haystack capers, to parka-clad duels, and a skip-diving story that may live rent-free in your head.
Elsewhere, there are less-fraught memories of a dishy 鈥渕ilko鈥, a bonanza prize haul on the tombola, and a memorable maxim for a blunt knife. And Liza鈥檚 genre-spanning selection of music includes a big favourite from Al Hudson, a Tina Charles tune that you just can鈥檛 fight, some early Moody Blues, and the Arctic Monkeys鈥 take on Bond.
