Its our first ALFsplaining trip out and where better to go than the famous Puppet Workshop of Phil Fletcher, the man behind such fuzzy faced legends as Josh, Terry Mole, Swads and, of course, Titty Bob. He's also pals with Hacker T Dog from CBBC somehow. Normal men, innocent men etc.

Phil is a big fan of ALF's puppeteer Paul Fusco and talked to us about his early years, memories of ALF on the telly and his marches to stop it in his youth. Expect some mild rudery but nothing your nan would keel over from.

We'll have more side episodes like this coming up soon as part of our Patreon. More details on that in the next few weeks.
