* ISIRTA episode on BBC 7 tomorrow (Saturday, 29 Sept)

The show "2's Company", will include the May 5, 1968 episode of "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again" (the episode is know by some fans as "Incompetence (Trouble at t'Mill)")  2's Company can be heard live on BBC 7 (www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7) tomorrow from 9:00am - noon (London time); it then should be available for a week from Listen Again.

Here's the description of the "2's Company" from BBC 7's newsletter:

Radio at 40
Marking the 40th Anniversary of BBC Radio, BBC7 presents 2's Comedy, a two-part series hosted by the two Kens, Ken Dodd and Ken Bruce showcasing a wide range of Radio 2's finest comedy.

In the first 3 hour programme, Ken Dodd introduces six shows from the first twelve months of BBC Radio 2:

Round The Horne - Bona Prince Charlie (first broadcast 2/6/68); The Clitheroe Kid - Have Snake Will Travel (10/12/67); The Navy Lark - Cuthbert Joins The Navy (15/10/67); The Embassy Lark (26/3/68); I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again (5/5/68) and The Ken Dodd Show (17/12/67). All great classics of the 1960s. Please note that we are not repeating this programme in the evening but instead you can hear a second selection from the 1970s and 1980s.
Saturday at 9am


* Request shows for BBC 7's 5th birthday

There's still time to request that "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again" and "Hello Cheeky" (plus other shows not currently on BBC 7's schedule) appear during their 5th birthday broadcast on December 15th.  Contact info for the station and a form you can fill in to email them can be found at http://www.bbc.co.uk/feedback/


Here's the explanation about the birthday broadcast request from BBC7's
newsletter:

BBC7 is a mere toddler of course, and as I mentioned last week, our fifth birthday falls on a Saturday this year, 15th December. On that day we will be broadcasting as many of your favourite programmes from the past five years that we can squeeze in.

We have had lots of suggestions, and as they are still coming in, we are extending the deadline to Wednesday 10th October.

So you have over a week left to let us know which programmes, whether comedy or drama, you'd like to hear again on our birthday. Please remember that they must be programmes which have been broadcast on BBC 7 since our launch day, 15th December 2002.
