OBE! Goodies fans worldwide - and Goodies themselves - were thrilled to hear that Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden received OBEs for services to light entertainment in the 2011 Queens Birthday Honours list.
A well deserved recognition of our heroes' excellent contribution to comedy!
Steve and Megan go Goodies in London! They visit Cricklewood, stop at Mornington Crescent, drink at the Lyttleton Arms and eat at Hampstead Heath.
We pop back a decade to May 2001 and see what was in the GROK Clarion and Globe (issue 65).
News: Goodies' choreographer FLICK COLBY dies, aged 65.
Reviews: Bill Oddie on 'Welly Telly', plus the John Cleese Alimony Tour.
Loony Moth!
Anna (aka Edna) and Roger take us to the Commonwealth Games! They provide a commentary for the series 2 ep that survives only in black and white.
Plus we hear Bill's latest bird food commercial, put out last call for Mastermind, and begin gathering your Bill Oddie 70th birthday tributes.
Cheers!

Politics. It's all around us. It runs the world. It runs the State. It runs our lives. It even runs the Goodies Podcast Commentary Couch. So buckle up and get ready for a wild ride of suspense, intrigue, ballot boxes, music and song... and a cat or two, if you listen carefully.
Don't cry for us, podcast listener,
The truth is, this commentary's a winner.
GP Mastermind: round 9 - with whizz-kid Anna Carlsson of the Sveeden! How many Goodies questions will she answer correctly? Tune in...
Graeme Garden is the Meddling Monk! Yes, it's Doctor Who time and we've brought in Big Finish fanatics Denise Bagley (of Little Finish), The boy Bob (of the Flashing Blade) and our own Steve Gerlach to chat about Mr Garden's turn as a devious and charming Time Lord.
In round 8 of Goodies Mastermind our contestants are a team consisting of Ingemar Ragnemalm and his son, competing for the honour and glory of Sweden! This edition comes with bonus chat at the end where Jeffers and Jane go over some Goodies news items. Cheers!

Graeme Garden visits Down Under this week, so we thought it was a good time to announce Good Graeme Garden Friday a week ahead of another Good Friday, and to sit on the Commentary Couch and watch as our Superchaps Three head overseas themselves in South Africa! Plus there is news and songs and inside information about just what GG was doing in Sydney...and who he was doing it with! Ooo er! Enjoy!!
Round 7 of Goodies Mastermind features Isabell Olevall from Sweden.
Goodies Mastermind: round 6, featuring Linda Southern!
Interview with American Goodies fan and Goodies Rule OK committee member LINDA KAY - recorded in Los Angeles at the Gallifrey 22 convention. Linda tells us what it was like to be a fan in the 1980s in the USA, catching sporadic episodes on PBS...
Fandom was an adventure in those days, people!
Well, Jeffers has been to Gallifrey (the convention, not the planet) and not to be outdone, Steve hops into his own TARDIS to watch a space-related Goodies episode - U-Friend or UFO!
Will Megan remember the episode before the final credits? Will Steve find his notes in time to mention which character Tim was supposed to play? Will George Lucas close us down for copyright reasons? And will Megan insult all of Goodies fandom? Find out right here, right now, or I'll pull the trigger of this loaded Nun!
Take me, take me, take me!
Mind your step!!
Round 5 of Goodies Mastermind, featuring Jenny Doyle from the UK.
