None so far (I've just finished episode 8)

[thrash822]

Don't think it should be said, but episode 6 about the staff member at POW doing heroin, I think many of us would know who this person is. Crazy!!

Well you can’t underestimate the power of the forum can you
Someone said that once but it’s so true right
I bet the presenter is sniffing round here too, maybe they are zedzy In disguise or the terrible early graffiti print artist everyone was Ravi g about or free range ! This place changed a lot
What staggers me is how far some of this stuff goes back and how crazy it was at times
I feel sorry for Steph In many ways , who here sold something they wish they could buy back for that price bug t times that by 100
Sounds like she was plagued by demons and what concerns me is that the nature of the way she gets the jobs and then gets dropped , is Jo brooks still involved with banksy ?
But it had a nice soundtrack

UAA’s Very own Patrick contributing in episode 2. A good listen so far.

 I think Jo is still involved. She was up in Glasgow recently according to her Instagram and regularly posts snippets of Banksy related content.

Is it the same Patrick ? I remember Stu being a member here as well

The very one!

Without trying to exaggerate, Patrick ran one of his wonderful competitions on this forum a few years ago. I will avoid going into too many details I won by following his cryptic clues and can say with my hand on my heart that in doing so my life has been forever changed. Who would ever have thought the forum could have such an impact? 

I have a huge respect for him despite having never met him and only having interacted with him via the forum for a brief period of time. 

As an aside, if anyone has a copy of his book I would be very interested in buying. 

[Spenie]

Great book, I remember getting this when it was released, massive , full of so much info. Really well put together

[The Rat King]

I wonder who is the longest serving member on here who is still active
This forum is a reference to anyone who is interested in tracking banksy over the last 25 years , there are pics of him included

These are the longest serving members and good to see some of the very first are still active. 🙌

Got one on release too, well read by quite a few people who visited my place  

[Smokeidaeye]

The interview with Banksy in episode 4 sounds exactly like Jamie Hewlett.

Or Robert del Naja.

Or both.

Or neither.

I joined in January 2007 and then left and came back in 2008 - I think at the time I was the only American.

I still check in for news from time to time. Glad I did recently so I could learn about this BBC show! 🙏🏼

[KaL976]

Steph & Dora were nothing but brilliant. Patrick is a top bloke and Ben Eine makes no secret of his then heroin addiction. Talks about it at length on Kela's podcast.

Also joined Jan 2006 as Nuart, had a break and fell back into the mayhem.

Listened to the series last couple of days, not sure if i thought it was any good. Nothing really new said and it left a few key players out of the early days of POW and Banksy. I felt that the guy doing it had hardly any information, but managed to string out a series with it. Steph didn't really supply much info that wasn't out there already. Also, if memory serves me right, It was odd that he really thought that Girl in the Bin had been at been at Sothebys for 12 years and suggested that they didn't know it was going to be shredded, really! All the voices were pretty annoying as well.
Just my humble opinion!

Good luck to Steph, i remember few good nights at Stella Dore back in the day. Hastings seems to be gaining a healthy art community with Carl Freedman gallery, Counter Editions, Tracy Emin - the recent Talk Art Podcast with Emin was a good listen and good to hear Tracey launching the new art school in Hastings and investing in her home town artists.

[My Name is Frank]

Yeah the voices on quotes were really annoying, very cliched and Brooker wannabe

Agreed! It seemed the whole podcast was based around Steph, who actually didn''t reveal that much exciting and revealing information - i could have told more stories...... post 2006 that is! Would have been good to know more about the Steve Laz fall out etc

[withnail69]

what's best way to contact Steph pls? I have a burning question I'd like to ask her

[sbash]

There's a clue in the very first post on this thread....

[withnail69]

thanks sbash. They should have got me on that podcast. I've got a good few stories to tell!

[Someone Like You]

This is a beauty, love this work

Brooker stole that idea from Eurotrash! 

[fastone]

Patrick and Stuey’s book launch brought together quite a few of the contributors, my book’s signed/doodled by about a dozen of them. A good night.
