My name is Angus Prune, and this is my tune, I say, I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again....
I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again or
ISIRTA had an 8 year run on the
BBC. Among its many weapons were
John Cleese (aka
Otto),
Graeme Garden,
Tim Brooke-Taylor,
Bill Oddie,
Jo Kendall and
David Hatch
The
roots of this
show go back to the
Cambridge University Footlights Club. Many of the cast were performing there looking to work up their
comedy skills. Their first major showing was called "A
Clump of
Plinths", which was originally called "You Can't Call a Show
Cornflakes" but was finally presented as "
Cambridge Circus".
Spiritually the show and its
creators were the sideways offspring of
Spike Milligan and
The Goon Show
There were
silly voices,
painful puns,
off color mumblings, all
served up with a flair for the
anarchistic; latter shows the
audience is given the
reigns of power.
