BBC Store is to launch a new special marking the 21st anniversary of The Fast Show.

The Fast Show At 21: An Evening With Paul Whitehouse And Charlie Higson sees the two comedians in conversation with writer and comic Danny Wallace as the pair look back on their comedy partnership and discuss the history and stories behind the much-loved sketch show.

The Fast Show At 21 will be available to all BBC Store customers to watch for free from noon until midnight GMT on Sunday 15th November, on both YouTube and the BBC Store website.

Having worked in conjunction with Microsoft to build a series of BBC Store apps, the brand new special will be permanently available to users of the BBC Store Windows 10 app in an exclusive Fast Show collection.

As well as The Fast Show At 21, the pack will include a selection of favourite episodes chosen by creators, writers and stars Paul Whitehouse and Charlie Higson.

Launched just last week, the BBC Store holds more than 7,000 hours of television content from the BBC archives for users to buy to download and keep. More programmes, both old and new, will be added every week with bosses estimating around 10,000 hours will be available this time next year.
