Shownotes

There are so many strings to Nigel Plaskitt's bow that it's difficult to know where to start! Puppeteer, producer, actor and voice actor, he's brought so many wonderful creations to the world, from Unstoffe in Doctor Who, The Ribos Operation to Pipkins' Hartley Hare and PG Tips' Monkey to several of the muppets! He's best known in the Anderverse for voicing Captain Black in the 2005 CGI remake of Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons - New Captain Scarlet!

This month, Nigel shares the many highlights of his illustrious career, from Muffin the Mule to reuniting with his Scarlet costars to record a very special audio adventure for the new BluRay... And even the Randomiser gets in on the game!
