ISIHAC recording with Stephen Fry |
more from same (British Comedy) |
The first two episodes of the 51st series of I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue were recorded in London this evening; the new series begins Monday, June 15th on BBC Radio 4.
The recording went very well; Stephen Fry did an admirable job as the show's first guest Chair. Based on the audience's response, Clue fans won't be disappointed when they hear the new series.
For those of you interested in more details, there's a write-up in our Events Forum in the thread entitled "ISIHAC London".

Cilla repeat with Tim & Graeme plus other spotteds |
more from same (British Comedy) |
* Graeme's appearance in "What the Dickens?" is being repeated on Sky Arts 1 on Weds, 22nd April at 00:15 and 13:15
* On Saturday, 25 April on BBC4 at 22:30 is "Cilla" with Tim & Graeme. Here's a listing - an "Edition of Cilla Black's 1960s TV series. Cilla sings Step Inside Love and Pass Me By, and performs duets with Georgie Fame on For Once in My Life and Dusty Springfield on If You're Ever (Friendship). Dusty and Georgie also take the mic for solo numbers. Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graham Chapman and Graeme Garden do a Top of the Form take-off and a ritual Japanese wrestling act, while comedian Tom Ward does a drunk act."
Edited to add:: Thanks to Andrew Pixley for posting the following in our forums: "In addition to "Cilla" on BBC4's "Queens of British Pop" supporting bill, the edition of "Lulu's Back in Town" at 11.45pm that night may also be of interest due to the inclusion of Bill's material (including one of his best songs)."
