    Ep. 173 The Other Mothers by Katherine Faulkner

    Ep. 173 The Other Mothers by Katherine Faulkner

    What happens when a murder is linked to a group of mothers you're friends with?  In The Other Mothers, a young journalist finds herself in the middle of a wealthy London community of mothers, but as she investigates mysterious deaths, she starts questioning her new friends' intentions.  In this episode, Katherine Faulkner shares her insights on crafting a suspenseful narrative set amidst the dark underpinnings of a local nanny's mysterious death.  She also offers a fascinating glimpse into her writing process and the elements that make a story both thrilling, readable, and relatable.  But we don't just talk about The Other Mothers; we even circle back to her debut Greenwich Park, the books she's reading, plus more.

    Colin Spaull - The RATS - Eyes & Teeth - Season 13 - Edition 7

    Colin Spaull - The RATS - Eyes & Teeth - Season 13 - Edition 7

    Colin Spaull

    Welcome to Eyes & Teeth brother Water Rat the great Colin Spaull.

    As I head off to another Water Rats Lodge and my next guest is flying out to another Doctor Who convention to meet his fans. Colin has been a very successful and proud jobbing actor who has stayed true to his business. He has loved being on screen or on stage since he was a child actor.

    That transition is not always easy but his experiences he talks about today show him to care about what he does and that is why he has worked for over 6 decades in our industry.

    From Italia Conti to working alongside Eric Sykes playing his son plus a sketch or two with Benny Hill and he tells of riding his scooter on a film set with a15 year old Hollywood star on the back.

    Playing Peter in the series Heidi was a highlight as was 3 years in the west end playing Noddy for Enid Blyton. And of course, we cover his time on Dr Who working with Colin Baker and David Tennant and his long-time friendship with Emmerdale and Dr Who co-star Frazer Hines. Frazer is also a fellow Brother Rat.

    Enjoy these anecdotes and moments from the life and times of Colin Spaull
