JB Morton's whimsies as performed by Richard Ingrams, John Wells, John Sessions and Patricia Routledge. From March 1989.
Moonlight on Mrs Parsons, newts in Lord Shortcake's trouser turn-ups, and the police - as ever - on Captain Foulenough's tail.
Richard Ingrams, John Wells, John Sessions and Patricia Routledge recreate the world of the JB Morton.
Running in the Daily Express from 1924 to 1975 鈥� JB Morton鈥檚 surreally comic 鈥楤eachcomber鈥� column paved the way for a great deal of modern humour.
Adapted by Michael Barfield with Richard Ingrams.
Announcer: Brian Perkins
Producer: Harry Thompson
First broadcast on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in 1989.
