About this deal

In 2023, Richard Milward's novel Man-Eating Typewriter was published. The novel is noted for being written almost entirely in Polari, in the form of fictional memoirs by the character Raymond M. Novak. By 24 February 1969 it had been decided that Round the Horne could not continue without its star. As a result, the scripts for Series Five (which Horne had jokingly suggested should be subtitled 'The First All-Nude Radio Show') were hastily adapted into a new series for Kenneth Williams called Stop Messing About, which ran for two series but was widely judged a failure and discontinued in 1970. [116] On the first day of recording the new show, Williams wrote in his diary that "I miss [Horne] dreadfully. I could weep for all that goodness gone from our atmosphere at the show". [117]

I do the puzzle online and had a completed grid but the timer kept going so there was a mistake somewhere. I couldn’t spot it and lost patience in the end and pressed Solve at which point I realised I had a half-unparsed MOODLIGHT instead of MOONLIGHT. Bah! On his return to civilian life, Horne resumed working at Triplex, and was promoted to the position of sales director. Despite his subsequent joint career in broadcasting and business, his commercial activities always took precedence. [47] He declared that his work on radio was only a hobby, and that he would give it up before his business career. He combined his two roles by working full-time, and writing scripts with Murdoch at weekends. [48] Sam Costa, the "amiable chump" of Much-Binding-in-the-Marsh [43]Stevens, Christopher (2010).

Ross, Robert (2011). Marty Feldman: the Biography of a Comedy Legend. London: Titan Books. ISBN 978-0-85768-378-6.Barry Took describes the original conception of Julian and Sandy as two "old theatrical chaps" who were doing housework in the flat of Kenneth Horne (the " straight man" in the sketches), while waiting for their next acting job. However, the producer of Round the Horne, John Simmonds, did not like them and viewed the characters as "too sad" and suggested making them younger "chorus boy" types. Their first appearance was in episode four of the first series, and – although Marty Feldman apparently "got tired of them" – Julian and Sandy proved to be the most successful part of the show, and appeared in every episode thereafter.

When I was a young man I nadgered my splod As I nurked at the wogglers' trade. When suddenly I thought While trussing up my groats, I'd whirdle with a fair young maid.

From working as part time domestics while ‘resting’ they progressed to running almost every trendy activity going from fox hunting in Carnaby Street to the gents outfitting department of MI5.

Here, the "criminal practice" refers to both the fact that Julian is a "practising homosexual" and also the law practice where he is currently employed. Such innuendo and double entendre was the predominant form of British humour at the time, with the Carry On Films – in which Kenneth Williams featured prominently – being an iconic example of such. [7] In 2005, to mark the 40th anniversary of the show, the BBC published a boxed set containing all episodes, on 35 CDs, with an accompanying 3-hour, 3-disc set "Round The Horne: The Complete and Utter History", written and narrated by Took: Round the Horne: The Complete Radio Archive (Audio CD). BBC Audiobooks. 2005. ISBN 978-0-5635-2749-7. The show is, in fact, almost irritatingly harmless. But excellent fun it undoubtedly is, and the recording session at the Paris Studios in Regent Street is even more fun than what comes over the air. It is one of those shows the players seem to enjoy as much as the audience, often breaking into fairly controllable giggles, at some bit of script that somebody takes their fancy. What has given it the sort of sound appeal that makes a lot of people look at their watches and switch off the telly? Week by week the pattern has been strictly conventional and repetitive. There are no surprises. Alexander, Richard (1997). Aspects of Verbal Humour in English. Tübingen: Gunter Narr. ISBN 978-3-8233-4936-5.
