Very Nearly An Armful – The Galton and Simpson Story
22.00, BBC Radio 2
This contribution to Radio 2′s cultural Olympiad does at least have a value because it was first broadcast on Christmas Day the other year when radio listening isn’t always easy. David Mitchell and Denis Norden contribute, though oddly Paul Merton doesn’t, given he seemed to be almost stalking them in the nineties.
