I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again: Volume 1 Publisher's summary

Four hilarious episodes from the cult BBC Radio comedy

Step into the world of Radio Prune, described by Barry Took as "a kaleidoscope of funny voices, catch phrases, and innuendo, revolving at breakneck speed and with a complete disregard for logic", the sketch comedy I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again ran for 8 successful years on BBC Radio and quickly developed a devoted youth following. Live tapings of the show enjoyed very lively audiences, a tradition that continued into the spinoff show I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue.

Enjoy this fine live showcase presenting the comic talents of Tim Brooke-Taylor, John Cleese, Graeme Garden, David Hatch, Jo Kendall and Bill Oddie.

Warning: contains strong language and humour that reflects the era in which it was first broadcast.
