This
radio (and now as well a
TV) show starring
Chris Langham as Roy Mallard is a series of
spoof documentaries in which Roy Mallard goes around meeting people who do particular jobs (such as an estate agent, a headteacher, and a solicitor). I cannot fully describe how
funny this show is- try to find one of the
BBC cassettes of the series and listen to it yourself. The comedy is so
slick that if you didn't know, it would take you most of the show to realise that it's a
spoof. This show shows that
British comedy from the
BBC is still going strong after all these years.
Chris Langham also writes and co-stars with Caroline Quentin in Kiss Me Kate.
