The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ 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 Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ - and a cursed tomb in 'The Clissold Saga'.

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

Recorded at the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Paris Studio in Lower Regent Street, London. Announcer: Douglas Smith

Round The Horne was born out of the demise of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ 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 Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Light Programme in March 1965.
