Product Description

Review
Devotees of Radio 4's jewel in the crown of comedy will need no introduction to this compilation. Those not familiar with the programme will be astonished and entertained at the audacity and wit within this book. That the famous (or infamous) panel can ad-lib and extemporize in such brilliant fashion is now the stuff of legends. An ideal gift. (Kirkus UK)

Product Description
Published to mark the 25th anniversary of the BBC Radio 2 show "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue," this book contains a selection of the funniest results of the limerick round.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm Not Sorry I Was Stuck In A Traffic Jam..., 30 Jan 2003
This review is from: I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue: Anniversary Special (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio Cassette)
... because I was able to listen to I'm Sorry I Haven't a Desert Island and the pilot edition of the show while trying to get to work one morning last week. I was probably the only person laughing as I took 30 mins to travel half a mile.

The anniversay episode is good, and the OAPs Ball almost unrepeatable (Mr and Mrs Sert-it-but-to-no-effect, and their twins sons Ike and Justin), but if you want to become an ISIHAC bore, listen to the pilot and discover that One Song To The Tune of Another was the very first game played... Barry Cryer and Willie Rushton were not there - but neither were Samantha or Sven. We can only presume they were trying to reach Mornington Crescent.

Anyway, with traffic queues in abundance along the motorways of our country, go and stock up your car with these tapes so you can while away the hours singing Love Me Tender to the tune of The Archers.

5.0 out of 5 stars hilarious antics from these wonderful radio 4 personalities, 10 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue: v.1-3: Vol 1-3 (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio Cassette)
I'm sorry I haven't a clue - advertised as the antidote to panel games cannot fail to make you crease up with laughter. This extensive collection of series 1-3 is possibly some of the finest comedy to be recorded on tape. It includes such classics as 'Mornington Crescent', lines to kill a date, sing a song using words from another song and many other zany games. These tapes contain some of the most memorable one-liners I have ever heard and the quick responses of the panellists are incredible.

Very highly recommended

5.0 out of 5 stars The funniest thing ever to be broadcast!, 5 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue: Starring Humphrey Lyttelton & Cast v.1: Starring Humphrey Lyttelton & Cast Vol 1 (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio Cassette)
If you have ever listened to ISIHAC on the radio you will already know what a gem of a show this is. Humphrey Lyttleton excels as host and the panellists are excellent too. Be wary about listening to this in your car because it will make you laugh so much! It's just a shame there arent more of the episodes available to buy considering there have been 37 series.
