Listen to the last episode:

In the first of our new series of podcasts, we look at the radio episode The Wild Man of the Woods from the fourth radio series.

The episode, which was released on Hancock’s first LP This is Hancock, is considered by the Team as one of best of the radio episodes. The gang look at the number of roles played by Kenneth Williams, discuss the great performances from all of the cast, consider the beautiful language used by Galton and Simpson in this episode and review probably the most well known fluff in all of the radio episodes!

We’ll be back in two weeks with a review of the fifth radio series Around the World in Eighty Days. We hope to see you then.
