Episode 3 of 4

From under the covers, Patrick Marber and Peter Curran discuss the Sedan Chair鈥檚 revival to make Britain great again. From 2019.

Everyone craves a place where their mind and body are not applied to a particular task. The nearest faraway place.

Somewhere for drifting and lighting upon strange thoughts which don't have to be shooed into context, but which can be followed like balloons escaping onto the air.

Late at night, in the dark and in a bunk bed, your tired mind can wander.

This is the nearest faraway place for Patrick Marber and Peter Curran.

Here they endeavour to get the heart of things in an entertainingly vague and indirect way. This is not the place for typical male banter.

From under the bed clothes, they wrestle life's challenges.

Now they're discussing childhood sightings of wigs and the revival of the Sedan Chair to make Britain great again.

Plus archive of film legend Bette Davis destroying an interviewer.

Producer: Peter Curran

A Foghorn production for 大象传媒 Radio 4, first broadcast in April 2019.
