12 We Bid You Velcome! (Jeremy remembers Dracula - 1984 / With A Little Help From My Friends, She's Leaving Home by Wet Wet Wet/Billy Bragg 1988 / Counting Draculas - Vince's Homage to the Prince of Darkness

Growing Up With Vince & Jeremy

For the 12th and final show of the Season, Vince and Jeremy discuss all things vampiric.
Jeremy looks back to 1984 and the attempt by him and his friends to bring Dracula to a new, mid 80's audience. Beset by production issues, creative tension, and interference from the studio, the film sadly lies unfinished, probably languishing in landfill, under the M3, or in a vault in West Africa.
Vince continues the theme as he discusses his relationship with the Count (careful!), and the fondness he has always had for the original and myriad of spin off films. His love of this subject is now manifested in his new book 'Counting Draculas - Binge Watching The Vampire King' which is available to buy directly from ATB Publishing.
This month it's the turn of No. 609 (With A Little Help From My Friends/She's Leaving Home by Wet Wet Wet and Billy Bragg) as our randomised UK number 1.
PLEASE GET IN TOUCH! We very much want to hear from you! Tell us your thoughts, give us your suggestions, and sing our praises!
