In memory of a dearly departed friend, we go back 50 years to a very special nautical episode that we know he would have enjoyed.
In an exciting departure from normal service, Raymond Baxter presents to us live from the first ever commercial crossing of the Channel by hovercraft. And along the way he shows us a whole range of exciting new developments in the world of seagoing transportation. This includes:

- Hydrofoils
- Research submarines
- Aquanauts (the "Dandies of the Deep")
- Underwater ejector seats
- Dracone barges
- Plenty of hovercraft chat

Avast ye landlubbers! Anchors aweigh! etc etc.

Happy New Year! And welcome to the future...

We kick off 2026 with one of our favourite things - a listener request. Mark's friend India had a bizarre and barely believable memory of an episode involving a South African man who had attached flamethrowers to his car. Doesn't sound like Tomorrow's World does it? Well sure enough, here it is.
This is actually a whole South Africa special, where Philippa Forrester and Craig Doyle take a tour of the country on the famous Blue Train, finding out:

- How to study cricketers with mocap
- How to track animals with a PalmPilot
- How to set fire to carjackers
- How to cure TB with some local plants
- How to attach a collar to an elephant

It's mostly a bland load of nothing episode. But who doesn't love a flamethrower?

Crikey. How is it Christmas again already? Time passes so fast these days that we reckon there must be something up with the space-time continuum.

Speaking of which, join us as we celebrate the season by unwrapping another Tomorrow's World Christmas Quiz, featuring grumpy alien child abductor Dr. Who and a cavalcade of other late-80s superstars.

Merry Christmas everyone! Love Russ and Mark xxx
