OOTB 8 – 20 Dec 2001

No review posted this week… but I have done a summary from memory.

Summary: first Out of the Bedroom Christmas special.  I’m sure we must have worn party hats and had cakes.  No?

Notable for some excellent debutantes:

• Danny Mullins would almost certainly have sung the hypnotic ‘Smoke Myself To Sleep’ in his laid-back style.
• Lynsey Hutchinson would have played her macabre, densely lyrical songs about muder and characters in ‘The League of Gentlemen’.
• Jimmy Spence read his poetry (poetry? yes, we were tolerant of such things in the very early days).
• Scott Reilly would have had us in awe of his stunning, immaculately crafted pop songs.
