The Round the Archives Cartoon Collection Martin Holmes

The ROUND THE ARCHIVES podcast (created & hosted by LISA PARKER & ANDREW TROWBRIDGE) brings its listeners a unique and fun view of the fascinating world of Archive Television. This collection of cartoon panels (which appeared daily online for over 2 years from November 2018) were written & illustrated by MARTIN A W HOLMES to accompany their show. It features their alter-egos (unsurprisingly named "LISA" & "ANDREW") and reflects their thoughts and insights as, from the relative comfort of a sofa in Poole, they lift the lid on the strange world of Classic TV, and have a good old poke around inside. In this book, more than 300 of those often hilarious or whimsical turns of thought, bitingly satirical observations, and other nonsense, are gathered together in print for the first time. Grab hold of your sofa cushions, it's going to be a bumpy ride!
