Class

Episode 4 of 4

Gerald Scarfe with scavenged Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ archive clips rebuilt into something new and unpredictable on the theme of class. From 2013.

Back in 1966, a famous sketch first appeared on TV skewering the British class system like a well done kebab.

Now Recycled Radio picks up John Cleese, Ronnie Corbett and Ronnie Barker and runs headlong into the slicing, dicing and splicing of the edit machine before emerging afresh.

Gerald Scarfe introduces, while vocal talent is provided by Boris Johnson, Nadine Dorries, Caitlin Moran, Laurie Taylor, Jennifer Saunders, Stephen Fry, John Lennon, Marcus Brigstocke, Grayson Perry and Attila the Stockbroker.

Intellectual backbone from the eminent sociologist AH Halsey, with music from AC / DC.

Producer: Miles Warde

First broadcast on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4 in 2013.
