"Round the Horne"

Between 1965 and 1969 the successor to Beyond Our Ken ruled the airwaves.

The show was scripted by Barry Took and Marty Feldman with music from the Fraser Hayes Four.

Kenneth Horne was the golden-voiced straight man of the show, with the incredible comic talents of Kenneth Williams, Betty Marsden, Hugh Paddick and Bill Pertwee taking on the guise of a score of characters in fast and funny sketches.

Its zany humour will always be remembered as a high point of 60s radio and now attracts a whole new audience in the BBC Radio Collection series of cassettes. So re-live the high times with Rambling Syd Rumpo, Julian and Sandy, Charles and Fiona, Seamus Android, Daphne Whitethigh and many more in these four hilarious programmes. One listen and the memories will come flooding back.
