Title: The Million Pound Radio Show: The Complete Series 1-5: A BBC Radio 4 Sketch Comedy Author: Nick Revell, Andy Hamilton Narrator: Jasper Jacob, Penelope Nice, Nick Revell, Felicity Montagu, Morwenna Banks, Lesley Sharp, Andy Hamilton, Harry Enfield, Various Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 48 minutes Release date: October 24, 2024 Genres: Comedy, Satire & Parody Publisher's Summary: Vintage sharp-edged comedy from Andy Hamilton and Nick Revell – including the famous pirate sketch Expensive, expansive, fun-filled and frantic, cult classic The Million Pound Radio Show ran for 11 years between 1985 and 1992, and won the 1991 British Comedy Award for Best Radio Comedy. Included here are all five series and six Specials, featuring a feast of quick-fire gags, stinging satire, comic chat and snappy sketches. Get ready to chuckle as Captain Blackskull faces up to his mutinous crew; Snow White runs into a few problems with the Seven Dwarves; 007 makes a few lifestyle changes and a chatty stegosaurus wonders where all the other dinosaurs have disappeared off to. Plus, a determined GP attempts to break the world speed record for examining patients, a mafia Don tries to teach his son-in-law about family business, and a double agent gets confused about whose side he’s really on. You’ll hear the hilarious history of Ancient Rome, science and the animal kingdom; find out how to become a successful politician and discover some diabolical ways to make money – as well as taking a twisted look at Gardeners’ Question Time, Desert Island Discs and Doctor Who… And there’s much more than just sketches to enjoy – Nick and Andy also poke fun at a host of well-known ‘80s and ‘90s personalities, conduct a host of side-splitting spoof interviews and bowl us over with their lively banter. Written by and starring Nick Revell and Andy Hamilton, with co-stars including Harry Enfield, Felicity Montagu and Morwenna Banks, this sparkling comedy show won’t make you a millionaire – but it will make you laugh out loud. NB: Some of the language and humour on this recording reflects the era in which it was first broadcast.
