G&TV: Razzmatazz Quickies Posted by John Hoare on 14th May 2019, 06:21 This month’s G&TV is short and sweet. No prolonged, tedious analysis.

With many thanks to Gary Rodger for the clip, here is Mac McDonald appearing on Tyne Tees kids music programme Razzmatazz in 1981. As… a human jukebox. You’re welcome.
DwarfCast 96 – Mac McDonald Interview Xtended DwarfCasts Posted by Ian Symes on 16th November 2017, 21:35 Subscribe to DwarfCasts: RSS • iTunes Last Friday morning - a mere twelve hours after Skipper had landed on UKTV Play - a DwarfCast splinter group consisting of Ian Symes, Danny Stephenson and Jo Sharples descended on returning guest star Mac McDonald's house, and he foolishly decided to let us in, for the second time in as many years. Later that night, we played you a brief snippet during the Live DwarfCast, but our conversation was long and rambling, so here's the full-length uncut version.

Ian Symes is your host, and his posse consists of Danny Stephenson and Jo Sharples. An enormous thank you to Mac for his time, hospitality and pecan cake. Read more →
