British Comedy Guide, 4th May 2022The week in audio: A House In History; The Skewer
For some jokes to cheer us all up, why not try Radio 4's new comedy A House In History? It's a mickey take of those TV programmes that put a family in a house from the past. Though slightly slow to start, the show ramped up into some satisfyingly silly strangeness, exemplified by Alistair Green, who played Phil, the father. Some great lines, too. Just before that, for fans of the even stranger, The Skewer is back, with its doctored, real-life audio and bizarre hallucinatory feel. Jon Holmes, who's been working at the radio coalface for many years, has won several well-deserved awards for this show. He also invites new writers to contribute. Excellent.
