The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ is lambasted by the censors, and a cursed tomb in The Clissold Saga. Starring Kenneth Horne, Kenneth Williams and Hugh Paddick. From March 1965.

Censors lambast the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ - and a cursed tomb in 'The Clissold Saga'.

Starring Kenneth Horne. With Kenneth Williams, Hugh Paddick, Betty Marsden and Bill Pertwee.

Recorded at the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Paris Studio in Lower Regent Street, London. Announcer: Douglas Smith

Round The Horne was born out of the demise of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ radio comedy Beyond Our Ken, after the end of writer Eric Merriman's involvement. Using the same cast and producer, Barry Took and Marty Feldman were persuaded to write the scripts - which led to four series that ran between 1965 and 1968 - packed full of parodies, recurring characters, catchphrases and double-entendres.

Music by Edwin Braden and the Hornblowers and The Fraser Hayes Four.

Producer: John Simmonds

First broadcast on the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Light Programme in March 1965.
