Product Description

These are the two specially extended editions featuring all the bits you didn't hear on transmission! If you've ever wondered what it's like to attend a live recording of "I'm Sorry I Haven'ta Clue", the antidote to panel games, now is your chance to discover how much fun they are! These two extended editions of the programme, from 1995 and 1996, offer an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes, in the company of players Graeme Garden, Barry Cryer, Tim Brooke-Taylor, Willie Rushton and Jeremy Hardy. Hear Humph and the team setting up before and after a recording, catch the jokes intended only for the theatre audiences (including the naughty bits!), listen to Barry and Graeme as 'Alec & Denzil', early ancestors of their much-loved Hamish & Dougal creations, and thrill to Jeremy Hardy's first ever attempt at singing on the programme..."Clue" producer Jon Naismith introduces each programme, with additional material provided by Mrs. Trellis of North Wales. Warning: Contains some swearing.

Customer Reviews

Repeating a Clue
With over 30 years excellence it is rather sad that this CD expands upon material already available in CD format! In summary a super idea diluted, let's have more Cd's using original material, after so many programmes it shouldn't be too difficult.

This is already out on CD
I love "I'm sorry I haven't a clue" and was looking forward to the next instalment. How disappointing then that this includes recordings that have already been released. Also, the amount of additional 'live' material is very limited.

Not so bad
If you haven't got the complete set of tapes/cds issued so far, you will be less disappointed than previous reviewers that some of this material has already been released.

It IS a good idea - but it would be better if previously unreleased editions could be put in this format. (I understand that part of the problem is that it was only comparatively recently in its 35 year history that Clue started recording programmes in a such a way that they can be released in full.) I am a sad bunny who has a number of programmes on tape that I recorded in the late 80s and early 90s and therefore I can see that it is a fine thing to release anything that includes the incomparable Willie Rushton and I would welcome any early shows in any format Jon Naismith thinks fit!

To sum up - this is still Quality Clue - and to be reminded that Finsbury Park is, for Ciryl players, Krapy rubsnif surely makes it worth the money! Never mind Jeremy Hardy's fine first attempt at singing One Song To The Tune of Another and a quick game of Barry's favourite - Spot the Ostrich...
