forgot he was back on.... thanks for the reminder


one which still makes me giggle to myself is when he was hosting hospital radio, and playing some of his olden goolies... er golden oldies

There must be a theme there as I remember when he told his friends they were all part of his 'inner scrotum.....er..inner sanctum'

Went to see him a few years ago in Doncaster. Fantastic show. And Steve signed a couple of CD's as Count Arthur in the foyer of the Civic.

I can't believe this is Series 7. I missed it must listen again.

Ooo must have a listen, I like the old Count.

You're not alone. Tired, laborious puns and a backing track of canned laughter. Al Read did it much better fifty years ago.

I used to find it hilarious, but I think the joke may have worn off a bit on me now.

 

[potsy]

Excellent, have downloaded it

I've only ever stumbled upon Count Arthur occasionally when driving and I stick the radio on - really enjoyed it, but I could never remember what it was called - so thanks for that!

It's Mrs Malaprop ad nauseam. It makes me sick, literally

He reminds me of a friend of ours.... I picture him when Count Arthur is talking.
