Favourite Radio Comedies

[Tokyo Tokei]

Stand Up for The Classics was/is good. The Bugle is surviving without John Oliver.

[Andyg]

The Goon Show and Hancock.

The Goon Show

If you feed the Brexit thread into a text-to-speech system, you get something as nonsensical as the Goon Show performed by actors who seriously believe it's all true.

Without doubt the best ever used top piss myself at Milligan.

Angstrom, a spoof of Scandi-Noir crime thrillers is very funny. Unfortunately it is just disappearing off iPlayer but I expect will be repeated soon:

I've just listened to Just a Minute: 50 Years in 28 Minutes which was plugged by Paul Merton on HIGNFY. It's very cleverly done featuring most of the regulars over the years, with almost seamless editing, and brings back many memories. It's only tainted slightly by the notable absence.

I do miss the mellifluous tones of Peter Jones on the radio.

Wonderful film comedy actor as well.

Who can forget him and Dennis Price as the "Winsome Welshmen" in School for Scoundrels.

'Alexei Sayle's Imaginary Sandwich Bar' is expiring fast on iPlayer, well worth a listen.

There's also the radio version of Sean Lock's '15 Storeys High' which whilst can be a bit hit and miss, is in parts hilarious...

My favourite Radio 4 Comedy was: People Like Us, not sure if these will ever be available again after Chris Langham became persona non grata.

You can get some on youtube, the estate agent is good. However, my favourite: The Pilot seems to not be available.

Only just spotted this thread, can't agree more on both. Have the Sean Lock series on DVD (somewhere) and it's very like the radio version in quality.
