Happy Christmas Pooters!


We here at World Of Poot would like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas and New Year.
This will probably be the last post of 2010 so..... See you in 2011!

Christmas WOP: Christmas Ghost Story!

Ah yes, the Christmas woppery continues tonight with this special ghost story read and presented by Neville Cheestring. 'The Orphanage'' is a spooky tale adapted from the novel ''Nectarine Theft'' by E Baigum.

Nothing like a bit of fear to get you in the Christmas mood!

And this is nothing like one.


Happy Christmas Pooters!


Christmas WOP: Holding Out For A Neville

Well.....Christmas wouldn't be Christmas unless our Nev' has covered an eighties classic would it? It seems his recent musical success (relatively speaking) with Dizzee Donut and his Christmas single has left him wanting more. He decided to do a cover of Bonnie Tyler's ''Holding Out For A Hero''

We tried to point out that this is a song probably best sung from a females perspective given the lyrics and that, but he just chuckled ''I like it and that's all that matters really. I did this to honour the unsung heroes that need the recognition they sorely deserve. With my head on them because I look better.''

Right then - enjoy!



''Holding Out For A Hero''
Written by Dean Steinman and Dean Pitchford.
CBS Music 1984.

Christmas WOP: Ghostcatcher Bloopers!

So we welcome Eric Kiaora's spectacular return to WOP, but things didn't go strictly to plan on the set of the filming of this year's Christmas Special!

Swig back your egg nog (but try not to spill any down the front of your new wolly jumper) and guffaw at the hilarity and stupidity of it all......




Christmas WOP: Ghostcatcher Christmas Special

Ghursts!!!!!

Yes - he's back! After a very long absence, Eric Kiaora returns to our screens for this extra special Christmas erm...special.
So what has Eric been up to in 2010?
Eric told us ''I've been mostly involved in graffiti removal with my brother Brian who runs his own sanitation business. It's money innit?''

So the recession has been felt all over. But does Eric think there is a recession in the afterlife?
''No idea, but there is a huge shortfall of mortality!'' He giggled.

Thanks Eric, we were hoping for something wittier.

Never mind - enjoy this spooky special!

Christmas WOP: Neville's World

Our Neville is getting quite excited about Christmas - he has something quite 'good' in store for us on Christmas Eve, but while we anticipate that - here's a seasonal one off.... 'Neville's World'.

In this, he looks at some of the strange oddities and weirdness found in the world!

Or more to the point - his world.

Christmas WOP: Carnivale Oyster

More digging into the archives this week Pooters! We have unearthed a very old reel of film dating from 1919, with footage of the Whitstable Oyster Festival!

No Kevin Ketley of course - but delight in this vintage bit of film.

Pay particular attention to the comic antics of the ice cream seller on his bike! They really don't make them like this anymore.
