"Radio 2 has on at the moment a rather lovely blue frock".
A spot of continuity confusion from Eric Idle.
An eclectic hour of music choices with self-penned sketches, for which Eric provides all of the voices.
Radio 5 was Eric Idle's first solo venture, post-Monty Python, for 大象传媒 Radio 1.
Ever the innovator, Idle's Radio 5 pre-dated the real 大象传媒 network of that name by some 18 years!
Producer: Clive Burrows
First broadcast on 大象传媒 Radio 1 medium wave and VHF in May 1973.
