Product Description

This title contains eleven episodes of "The Navy Lark Series Four", the majority previously unreleased. Plus "Calling the Antarctic" - an Overseas Service Broadcast from December 1962. The "Navy Lark", one of radio's longest running laughter-makers, kept the nation on the crest of a comic wave from 1959 to 1977. All at sea in the Senior Service were conniving Petty Officer Jon Pertwee, silly-ass Sub-Lieutenant Leslie Phillips and the constantly bemused Stephen Murray as 'Number One'. Below decks Ronnie Barker was just about working his passage as (Un)Able Seaman 'Fatso' Johnson. The box also contains an illustrated booklet with detailed programme notes, cast biographies and details of the missing episodes, and each CD is presented in its own wallet.

The Navy Lark Series 4 Pt 2 5
Cracking good stories,fresh as ever; inspite of a few where the recording have degenerated. Ideal example of mid 20th centry comedy at its best with some of the best talents there was. Ihope more are forth coming as I know there are many years yest to be published in whole series which is the best for it & the listener. :)
My only gripe is the really really stupid prices on issue, we all now know how cheap cds are being made for a long time now. :(

The Navy Lark Series Four5
Again an excellent product but still a bit slow with the delivery of the new series of "The Navy Lark" which im led to believe its due to the conversion from Tape to CD? the sound quality is very good and am looking forward to the new series 5 which is due in July 09
