BEHIND THE STORY with PHIL WHITMORE
“BLOB”

Yea, yea its another “Kaiju” story.

But this time, it’s all Mr Custa’s fault.

He brought it home as an itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny sample, and, although he didn’t know it would grow like, really, really big, he should really have had an inkling that something like this was going to happen.

He’s a fricking space hero!

Anyway, I then decided to add the character of “Mitch Moody” a rival Rock star to play off Mr Custa’s more conceited tendencies.

And it’s a shock to his crew, too.

Suddenly, its like- “What?    There’s a rival?”

Yea, its good when the writers remember that Custa is meant to be a Rock star.

And then there’s the last episode’s “Blobtastic” showdown with that song that originally went on for ages and had to be cut down…

“Follow Meeeeeeee!”
