That Galton & Simpson Sound

March 7th, 2009 by Dan


To celebrate 60 years of their writing partnership, Radio 2 are doing a Galton & Simpson’s Half Hour series where modern comedians perform classic material and you’ll never guess who is doing one…

IMPASSE
Saturday 14 March

Starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb.

A Rolls Royce and a banger meet in a very narrow country lane, somewhere in Cornwall, and both drivers refuse to back up. Between the AA, the RAC and the Cornish Constabulary, a solution is finally found, temporarily.

The drama was one of Galton & Simpson’s Comedy Playhouse Scripts for the BBC, first broadcast in 1963.
