Chelmsford 123

The audio revival of Hat Trick's first official production in 1988, for Channel 4.

Chelmsford 123 was a two-series sitcom, set in Roman Britain, that brought memorable characters, strong gags, and funny storylines to the small screen. This audio adaptation uses some of those scripts as a basis, with new writing from Rory McGrath and Jimmy Mulville to enhance and adapt them. Come back with us to 123 AD, for some historical humour.

First released: Thursday 16th December 2021
