Welcome to Rik Mayall’s outrageous outtakes from his last ever audio work, which with the comic genius in the editing chair, was his interpretation of a series of Grimms style fairytales, reimagined by Mike Bennett. But there is a twist in the tale! Sit down and witness the man himself off-grid, delivering the stories in his unique, inimitable, crooked style with all the humility he could muster. Rik rehearses, chats, adlibs, cusses, and blasphemes in a way that only he could get away with.
'Rik Mayall’s Famous! ...(Last Words)' marks the tenth anniversary of Rik’s untimely passing in June 2014.
The adventure of Underwood and Flinch continues in this first sequel to the original story.
Having returned to the Flinch family house in Spain, David Flinch uncovers old audio interviews between his father, Arthur, and the vampire, Lord Underwood. Through these recordings, David learns what happened to Underwood when he and Matthias Flinch sailed on from where we left them in 1719. A voyage that sees Underwood face new dangers, make new allies, and discover more about the creature of darkness he has become.
Blood and Smoke won the Parsec Award in 2014 for Best Novella.
This audiobook features the original podcast audio remastered for audiobook release.
All David Flinch ever wanted was a normal life. But when you're a member of the Flinch family, normal has never been easy.
For hundreds of years, the eldest male Flinch has been servant and guardian to the vampire, Lord Underwood. While the Flinches have changed through the generations, Underwood has remained eternal. David had hoped to be spared the horror of serving his family's lord and master, but when he is summoned to the Flinch home in Spain by his dying older brother, he knows his luck has run out.
After fifty years of slumber, Underwood is to be resurrected from the grave in a ritual of human sacrifice, and David, by right of succession, is to be his resurrector. But there is another Flinch, one who craves the role of guardian to the vampire: David's sister, Lydia. It's a job she means to have, even if it means making David's the first blood shed in this new age of Underwood and Flinch.
Underwood and Flinch won the Parsec Award for Best Small Cast Story (Long Form) in 2012 and 2013.

"A collection of exciting tales centred around the antics of an 11-year-old Sherlock Holmes, who with the aid of his magic magnifying glass endeavours to solve a host of mysteries.

And his good friend Billy Watson, with whom he shares a dormitory at Prestbury prep. Together the boys become immersed in exciting adventures, meeting fascinating characters along the way. Watson's skill for science and inventing medicinal compounds naturally compliments Holmes's skills for detective work. And with Sherlock's ghostly Granny at hand, the pair take on a number of crimes, including 'The Hounds of the Basket Weaver', 'The Giant Newt' and many more! This rip-roaring collection of comedic tales and adventures is a must for all the family!

The imaginative story has been written and loosely adapted around the Charles Dickens classic "A Christmas Carol".
The intriguing tale is centred around a selfish young lady called Carol, who somehow makes it her business to ruin everybody's Christmas celebrations each and every year. With her awful greedy father Ebegezer Stooge, encouraging her to develop her ever enveloping sense of greed for financial gain. Thus his bad parenting skills prove disastrous causing his once innocent daughter to become a little monster.
In complete contrast, her lovely brothers Sheridan and Kingsley aim to use their diverse range of musical skills to raise money for the poor. However Carol, also known as 'Christmas Carol', along with her father and easily led mother Doris, set out to exploit Sheridan and Kingsley's prodigious talent for commercial gain!
Sadly, the slightly vulnerable young boys are forced to do a tour performing their brilliant Christmas music, augmented by an extremely out of time tambourine. This is played by Carol who's voice is so annoying, the victims of the carol singing tour give them silver and gold, to get them as far away from their doorsteps as possible.
To everyone's surprise when Ebegezer Stooge stages a much hyped concert in the Village Hall, A strange character appears playing an amazing flying V guitar. On meeting this charismatic man, Carol's insidious method of thinking slowly starts to change for the better. The name of the mystical man in question is the 'Toast of Christmas Blast'. He got this intriguing name through his love of making a toast to Christmas, for all the right reasons and the fact that he has a blast on stage with his wonderful guitar playing, in order to raise money for the poor.
Find out what happens when he meets Christmas Carol and changes the lives of both her and those around her for ever and a day...
