Dominik Diamond

Uh, we've got an incredible, uh, lineup of guests as well.

I'm gonna be on stage with, uh, Dominik Diamond of, uh, Gamesmaster fame.

Uh, we're gonna be doing a panel about, um, uh, of explorers as well with, uh, Tony Warriner and, uh, Stu Cambridge.

Looking forward to that.

Thanks for downloading the podcast.

And don't forget, we'll get two brilliant interviews at the moment, online straight talk with Dominic Diamond.

Dominic Diamond, remember him? I caught up with him about his love of football, supported Rangers and then supported Celtic.

Can you do that? He obviously got some great chat with that.

He hosted Gamesmaster and he's got some really good insights into that.

life ups and downs as well it's a really good listen Dominic Diamond and also a brilliant striker for Liverpool Emil Heskey I caught up with him there's a new app called the football safety app if you want to you can download it and it gives you a peace of mind if you see any criminal behavior abuse sectarian or indeed racist you can report it on this app without fear of any come back whatsoever.

It can get you and the family to a game just feeling that little bit safer, hopefully.

Anyway, Emil Heskey talks about Martin O'Neill, talks about Leicester and Liverpool.

Covering every single episode back, forth, side to side.

Since then, we've had the Oral History, which is an invaluable tome, uh, written by Jack Templeton and Dominic Diamond, and there is all sorts of behind-the-scenes information in there about, uh, about the show, about how it came to be, about stuff we already talked about.

Stuff like, uh, Jane and her son and doing-

Mm-hmm

That bit's my words, not his.

[laughs]

And I read all this, and I look at this episode now with the knowledge of the Oral History, with the knowledge that I've gained over the past six years from talking to people who were there, from talking with people involved, from talking To Mr. Dominic Diamond.

I then look back at this episode, and when I watched it for this ep- for this podcast now-

So well worth watching.

And over and above that, Ruffian, I'm not quite sure whether you remember him or not, but coming out tomorrow on our programme, we have a straight talk one-to-one with Dominic Diamond.

Do you remember him? He used to host the Gamesmaster on Channel 4.

He's on a tour at the moment, loves his football.

Listen, don't forget to take advantage of the content we've got.

Emil Heskey is live now.

Dominic Diamond's out tomorrow.

We'll have the journos.

I'm going to be on stage on the Saturday with our mate Paul Monaghan.

We're going to be interviewing Dominic Diamond of Games Master fame as well.

So I'm particularly excited about that one.

So it is a great weekend.

It

was written by Dominic Diamond.

Yeah, maybe.

No, it would have been juicier.

Was that on Channel Four? I think it might have been.

And yeah, I think maybe when I was even younger than that, I was watching, uh, GamesMaster as well, the original one with Dominik Diamond.

Um, so yeah, that was my, that was my experience of games media at the time.

Um, I don't know what that reveals about me, but, uh, well, probably, probably my age.

And we're going to be hosting a panel with none other...

And Dominic Diamond.

Wow.

Yeah.

I loved when we had Dominic Diamond on the show.

So in real life, it's going to be really funny because his personality came through on the audio.

It was audio back then.

Then interestingly, I hadn't heard of this before.
