Yep. So many great jokes come from that show.I quote from 5 July 2004 episode, recorded in Salford, Humphrey Littleton: "Right, in this next round, the teams are going to delve into the world of real celebrities. The cult of the celebrity is everywhere, with many lending their image to the promotion of consumer goods. I noticed recently on my pack of sausages, a picture of Anthony Worral Thompson in his kitchen. Underneath it said 'Prick with a fork'..."

you're missing out...there's a reason why so many fab jokes come from that show... it's a comedy goldmine! although i'll admit radio 4 comedy in general is a bit hit-and-miss these days... but of course in the old days it originally introduced us to:
lee and herring's fist of fun
the league of gentlemen
the unknown paul merton appearing on Just a Minute in the 1980's
that mitchell and webb *sound* (SOO much better than their recent TV show)
on the hour (which became TV's "the day today", which launched alan partridge, chris morris etc.)
blue jam (became the brilliant 'jam' on TV, with chris morris, kevin eldon et al)
dead ringers (again much better in its radio days)
There are still some corkers on R4 to listen out for - Just a Minute and ISIHAC are still favourites of mine.
there are many more shows which found their feet on R4... i've just forgotten them due to all the red wine i've been drinking... can anybody help??
