Forthcoming comedy radio. With beer.
We have more news, via an infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of typewriters. Or something. Anyway…
Keep ‘em peeled over at That BBC Tickets Site because several M&W related projects (all of them in glorious radioness) are being recorded over the next two months or so.
Daydream Believers is a radio sitcom pilot from David and Rob that has been around for a bit and is finally (almost) ready to be unveiled to the masses (i.e. a horde of comedy nerds and confused posh types who go to everything Radio 4) at The Drill Hall. It will probably almost definitely take place on 19th March. Which is, calendar fans, a Monday.
The Drill Hall: Home of comedy and a refreshing beer.
Bleak Expectations is a ‘Dickensian radio comedy series’ which from that description alone has me intrigued. It is created by Mark Evans aka one half of Bachman & Evans aka That Man Who Co-Wrote Some Of the TMAWL sketches. He is also the same man as the man who was at the various ‘practice’ gigs for that very same sketch show, and was usually to be found marking the scripts with coloured pen when people in the audience found things amusing. Or not. That shoul be unveiled, listened to and indeed applauded at The Drill Hall (our spiritual home) in the last week of March (probably and almost definitely 23rd, 26th and 30th) in three blocks of two episodes. You can’t go for a wee during recordings there, as I found out to my horror once, but as it’s a double episodey thing I am sure they’ll have a short break.
The Drill Hall does very refreshing beer.
The biggie to look forward to is the return of That Mitchell And Webb Sound. Probably the best radio comedy since Little Britain when it was funny, it returns for a surprise third series and is being recorded over three dates that span from the beginning of April to the middle of May. Dates may change so I’m not going to mention them until it’s all confirmed as fact.
I am officially triple excited now.
Beer?
