3. The Anderson Almanac

Tall tales, jokes and outright lies - Sean Coyle and Mickey Bradley swap Gerry stories.

Recorded for Gerry Anderson’s 10th anniversary in August 2024, his on-air companion Sean Coyle and producer Mickey Bradley share stories - some true - about the Gerry they knew and worked with.
Sean says an argument in the office led to his first unplanned on-air appearance, and the rest is history. Mickey ‘the Undertone’ says he couldn’t stand the music at first, couldn’t really produce Gerry and can’t really explain what made the show great – but both agree that it simply was. And so was Gerry.

Taking a stroll along Sackville street in Derry, where Gerry grew up among sailors, musicians and cursing parrots - Sean and Mickey ponder the broadcaster's unique and usually hilarious take on the world around him, taking them to a farewell of sorts in New York
