Sir Harry Secombe reads his own tale about the goings-on in a remote Welsh mining village.

These are the adventures of Dai Fargo who drives the only bus connecting sleepy Panteg to Swansea. The dilapidated vehicle may need constant mechanical intervention, but it’s the locals’ lifeline.

Sir Harry’s satirical novel reflects his association with The Goon Show’s Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers, Michael Bentine and Eric Sykes.

First published in 1981, it's abridged in ten-parts by Elizabeth Proud.

Producer: Enyd Williams

First broadcast on Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 4 in February 1982.
