Notes: | Written by Barry Took and Marty Feldman | |||||
Synopsis: | Round the Horne was a phenomenon in the swinging sixties - a show which even today has a host of loyal fans - and a whole new generation have cottoned on to the fact that this show, with its weird surreal humour and its multitude of double-entendres, is one of the cleverest and funniest (as well perhaps as one of the zaniest) ever written. Just envisage the names of some of the characters represented - J. Peasmold Gruntfuttolk, Dame Celia Molestrangler and Rambling Syd Rumpo and you get an idea of the concept, and when the two resting actors Julian and Sandy make their very camp appearance, there is a collective sharp intake of breath from an audience, knowing what to expect and anticipating with delight. An exceptionally well chosen cast transport us back to the studio where the show was recorded every Sunday. At the time this was compulsive listening and a nation, with little access to recording equipment, stayed home to listen, numbers regularly totalling over fifteen million - more than any radio programme before or since. | |||||
