Things I Took From The Dark
Richard returns to the Podcast Room (he's actually been sitting in here for four straight hours) to talk to top RHLSTP guest Reece Shearsmith about his new memoir crossed with an adult Usborne book of Ghosts , Things I Took From the Dark. They chat about Reece's spooky childhood, failing to catch bats in a net and having his magic tricks spoiled by his Uncle Geoff, how schools in the 70s had a definite echo of the Victorian about them, an horrific car crash (thankfully with no fatalities) and the part played by a tiny plastic skull, the 2016 appearance of clowns across Europe, the furious running knot man, why the devil does what he does and why there won't be a filmed version of the Inside Number 9 stage show.
