ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½

Available for over a year

Actor, comedian and writer John Cleese hosts a dinner party with a twist - all his guests are from beyond the grave! But his heroes are brought back to life by the magic of the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ radio archive. An all-star line-up is joining John for dinner: * Writer and philosopher Aldous Huxley * Hollywood actress Bette Davis * Comedian and writer Spike Milligan * Film maker and writer Susan Sontag * Neurologist Oliver Sacks. While John and his guests wait for the Indian takeaway to arrive, they don't waste any time in discussing past drug experiences, the trauma of war, being a superstar, the threat of technology - and the joy of silliness. Then the comedians Peter Cook and Dudley Moore turn up for a late night brandy. Producers: Sarah Peters & Peregrine Andrews A Tuning Fork and Open Audio production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4, first broadcast in September 2019.
