BBC Radio 4 - Thom Tuck - Goes Straight to DVD, 1. Pilot

What better way to chart mishaps in love than Disney films aimed at the home video market?

What better way to chart fortunes and mishaps in love than Disney films aimed at the home video market? From February 2012.

Thom Tuck recounts heart-rending tales of love and loss.

He lays bare all the failures he's suffered in his relationships - whilst drawing comparisons with the 54 straight-to-DVD Disney movies he's watched, so we don't have to. 

These underrated gems - perhaps rightfully ignored and forgotten - mirror his experiences with women he has loved too often and too soon. 

A show with a huge heart, all about heartbreak in various forms.

Thom Tuck is also part of acclaimed sketch group "The Penny Dreadfuls".

Producer:  Lianne Coop

First broadcast on Radio 4 in February 2012.
