From Series 7 of John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme on BBC Radio 4, available to buy on CD or to download from Audible.
Yes, John knows he gave the shop the number 23 in the sketch, but 9 in the illustration. He's very annoyed about it.

But surely it's also a play on "spectacles," and thus highly satisfying!

[@andriypredmyrskyy7791]

I'm just saying, nothing you have done has ever not been wonderful.
Your humour is so brilliant, that my family speaks almost exclusively in John Finnemore jokes. Almost any situation can be broken down into it's fundamental John Finnemore joke. That is how amazing you are.
Just... Thought I ought to let you know.
P.S. come to Canada sometime please.

I find myself saying on a regular basis "this reminds me of a John Finnemore sketch".

JF’s mastery of ‘metaphorical-as-literal’ is truly spooktacular! 👻

[@GabrielKnightz]

You're back :)
i remember searching '23 church street' on google maps, found out where the Enfield Post Office is though.
I just want to put something called "The Stanley Parable" on your radar, i think you might like it.
Thanks for the laughs, always.

I hope this sells really well and you do more in different places! It's ok, they can be places that haven't been theatres since 2005 just as long as they are theatres nearer to where I live.

I love the "Mulligan's" running gag in the drawing.

[@valwoodhouse353]

My line manager in my least favourite job was named Mulligan. I doubt John's been traumatised by the same one, hundreds of miles away, but there must be a family trait in there somewhere.

[@bevmaydon976]

Yes - me too!

[@jeniferallan6693]

Mr Finnimore is a very clever man

[@74bish]

Brilliant!

[@simonkane]

FRIGHTENED!

[@Wipeout325]

Did John Finnemore himself draw this?

[@InuKun2008]

Yeah. Just like his sketches of GERTI from Cabin Pressure.

[@djhalling]

@@InuKun2008 And slightly off Disney characters!

[@alisonbeezer6952]

What a treat! But would it be a displacement activity to avoid doing some writing?

[@geofflondon]

Spooktacular is S7E2 sketch 8 (series 7 episode 2)

[@Timlagor]

The real mystery is why 23 Church Street has a 9 over its door.

[@EKimatH]

John Finnemore is an artist?!!?!?!!?

Spooktacular? Or should that be spooktocular?

[@davimurph]

23 Church Street?
The optician's shop appears to have a 9 above the door.

[@the4thviewer28]

Spooky isn’t it?

[@angusscott6967]

Is it a colander?
