Ah - great choice Tom. Round The Horne was a fantastic show;happy memories of the whole family (more or less) sitting around the radio and weeping with laughter. When I listen to the shows now (yes I am that sad I have a CD boxset of Round The Horne)I'm amazed by the innuendo lurking beneath every other line. Of course I never "got" any of that when it was first being broadcast but laughed along nevertheless!
I think you can hear episodes of Round the Horne over at BBC Radio 7's website. I go there weekly for my Goon Show/Hancock's Half Hour/I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again fixes.
