We're In Business
Eight episodes from the vintage radio comedy starring Peter Jones and Harry Worth.
First broadcast on the BBC Home Service, We're In Business ran for two series between 1959 and 1960. It starred Peter Jones as dodgy small-time businessman Dudley Grosvenor, who's always looking to make a fast buck with his crooked schemes - usually at the expense of his hapless sidekick, Harry (Harry Worth). Dudley spends his life lurching from one crisis to another, secure in the belief that "it might never happen" - but when it inevitably does, both men end up in a fix...
Collected here are eight of the surviving episodes from Series 1 and 2, in which Dudley and Harry get involved in various comic misadventures - from being stitched up by Dudley's devious elderly relative to monkeying around with a stuffed gorilla and attempting to flog off their landlady's feathered friend...
The episodes included are: Dudley's Granny, Dudley And Harry's Reunion, Changing Rooms, The Gorilla, The Regimental Dinner, The Parrot, The Newspaper Business and Conscience Money.
Written by Peter Jones and a team of comedy writers including the legendary Barry Took and Marty Feldman, these hilarious recordings also star Irene Handl and Dick Emery, with special guests including Beryl Reid, Hugh Paddick, Doris Hare and Wallas Eaton.
