Product Description

This title includes four more vintage episodes starring Peter Sellers, Harry Secombe and Spike Milligan. The Goons ruled the airwaves in the 1950s and became the most celebrated and influential clowns in radio history. Stand by for more comedy anarchy featuring Neddie Seagoon, Eccles, Grytpype-Thynne, Moriarty, Bluebottle and Major Bloodnok. "The Lost Year" (13 December 1955) - The year 1956 is missing. Can Seagoon track it down in time? "The Great Bank of England Robbery" (20 October 1958) - 'Fingers' Secombe attempts to commit the greatest crime of the twentieth century - but he's stuck in a pillar box. "The Siege of Fort Night" (27 December 1986) - Fort Night is under siege and can only survive for another 14 days. Can Henry Crun, inventor, save the day? (This version was originally recorded in 1958 and first broadcast in the UK in 1986.) "The Chinese Legs" (7 January 1960) - If Ned of Wales isn't Welsh, what is his real nationality? And can his legs really be Chinese?

Goon Show V.265
I've been collecting Goon Shows since the 1960's. It's nice to have them on CD and of course, only the BBC has access to the vast majority of the back catalogue. Always a good purchase.

my review3
There is little in the World of today's comedy that can touch the humour and use of words as the Goon Show did. This latest collection of four shows adds to the collection already re-recorded and digitally enhanced. Hopefully within time every show will become available.

Can't get enough ...4
Another great set of stories from The Goons. Whether you are a Goon-a-phile, like me, or a newbie to the Goon scene, this volume will give you great pleasure and many laughs. Buy it. Enjoy.
