These programmes have appeared on YouTube recently, well, I have just found them there, and these have been making me laugh at times, almost laughing too much. Of course they tend to have episodes that are a wee bit too crude for us decent folks, but they are funny other than that little drawback.
I find it strange that someone is able to make money from these old programmes, it must be legal or it would have been stopped.
I much prefer the older versions with Humphrey Lyttleton, the Toff, educated at Eton, served in the Grenadier Guards, and became a beatnik while also becoming the UKs leading Trad Jazz trumpeter. A firm favourite with Jazz lovers everywhere, and plays a grumpy host awaiting a gig in Hull extremely well throughout each series.
Worth a listen at least once.
Don't forget Samantha....
