Nick Revell: BrokenDreamCatcher

Series 3, Episode 1 - The Tale Of The Time Travelling Tartan Tea Towel

Master storyteller and satirist, Nick Revell returns to BBC Radio 4 with a remarkably believable (no, really!) story about one man and his time traveling tea towel. We find out how Bonnie Prince Charlie became a cruise ship entertainer and meet celebrities from the past, present and future as the story wends its way from The Fox and Gynaecologist (Islington's last remaining traditional boozer) around the world, through time - and back to the pub.

What's Funny About...

Series 1, Episode 5 - Goodness Gracious Me

Peter Fincham and Jon Plowman talk to Meera Syal and Anil Gupta about the British-Indian sketch show. They discuss the impact the show had on popular culture and how they feel they were treated by the BBC, the broken video camera at their first ever showcase that meant that Goodness Gracious Me very nearly never happened, and what sort of show Meera thinks the GGM team should get back together and make.
