I quite like Ellie Taylor's Safe Space as I have just said on another thread.
What I am not getting at all as in "laughing" is Plum House.
Can anyone explain to me what I am missing?
Current radio comedy Page 146
Long shot but would anyone know where I could listen to episodes of this...
The Gyle's Brandreth show tonight was quite interesting, mainly because it highlighted how badly a lot of comedy ages.
Yes. I thought that.
Hardly a joyous celebration of the art form.
And what a terrible format!
Wondered if people still look at the Radio section of this forum that much? I wanted to see if anyone knew where I could find the two episodes of Time Spanner (https://www.comedy.co.uk/radio/time_spanner/) with David Mitchell and John Finnemore. Both have an excellent record of radio comedies but can't seem to find the recordings. Thanks.
I'm not sure how current it is but I've been listening to Alone, which is another Absolutely production.
Good characters and funny.

I have just started listening to that yesterday! Series 1 didn't seem to be on BBC Sounds, but started with Series 2 and was impressed. BBC radio comedies can be such a mix bag of quality, but Alone is great. I also enjoyed Party's Over, but the episodes seem quite hit and miss.
Couple of decent ones on bbc sounds at the moment are The Guns of Adam Riches
And The Wilson Dixon line

Thanks for the tip re 'The Guns of Adam Riches'.
To be honest, I'd never heard of it, but I am really enjoying it. ?

Where and when?
Presumably only the BBC do radio comedies.
On the BBC Sounds App?
Just do a search!

Yep good silly stuff
You would have to be very brave to sit near the front of the audience if you go to see it live!
Binged series 1 of Phil Ellis Is Trying and would recommend. Jonny Vegas is great as usual. But the episode where he speaks like a dalek for most of it is a bit.... trying.
Glad to see It's a Fair Cop back. Nice format, and Alfie Moore's a very engaging performer. And good to see Radio 4 not constantly relying on ISIHAC and Just A Minute to fill the hallowed Monday 6:30 evening slot.
On bbc sounds at the moment is Wrinkles, a "lost" sitcom from 1980
Written by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor - the creators of Red Dwarf
Very silly, and reasonably funny
Has a character played by Ballard Berkeley too
The Remains of Foley and Mccoll is back on bbc sounds - pretty good stuff
One of the characters is played by Steve Delaney, 'Dickie Bow' , clearly an early incarnation of Count Arthur Strong
