Now That's Curiously Specific Part Two: Lloyd's Festive Five

It's Lloyd's turn to pick his five best moments from Series 1 and 2 of the Curiously Specific Book Club podcast. His picks take us deep into Mick Herron's commute to work in SLOW HORSES; the disappearing landscapes of Barry Hines's A KESTREL FOR A KNAVE; Nazis parachuting onto a Norfolk beach (and possibly drowning in the high tide!) in THE EAGLE HAS LANDED; and finally, and in Lloyd's case most memorably, the extraordinary discovery of Oldway Lane in THE DARK IS RISING. These are our special Christmas episodes to mark the end of our second series. Join us in January for Series 3, when we discover weird goings on in a very strange-seeming London Town.....
