Footnotes

  1. There’s an argument to be made that the shorter title is more official, but using the longer one makes it easier to have a separate entry in the wiki, so.
  2. Given he’s arguably one of the bigger names in the cast, its a bit weird Ackland is credited last, but perhaps he asked for it to be that way. He doesn’t always like doing fantasy - he’s on record as regretting doing Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey.
  3. This is the original broadcast date on Sky One.
  4. Direct link to the audio file, as The Turtle Reads doesn’t have a website with episode details.
