5 out of 5 stars Round the Horne CD review   January 14, 2010
John P. Vickers (Essex, UK)
If you are old enough to have listened to the original radio shows then this series of CDs is a must. To allow old and new listeners the chance to sit round the 'wireless' (well CD player actually) and re-live your youth or hear what you missed.

Having only heard the occasional re-run (when played as a snippet on some other show) or caught the occasional edition that was the updated series run on Radio 4; I was then lucky enough to see the radio programme re-created on stage which did admirable justice to the original series and was brilliantly funny in its own right.

This set of CDs were bought for my father-in-law as a Christmas present, (it was him I took to the play and who confirmed its authenticity), they have already been repeatedly played and brought back many happy memories and new laughs to all who have listened to them."Round the Horne": v. 3: The Very Best Episodes (BBC Radio Collection)



2 out of 5 stars BBC butchers   May 27, 2008
giddygoddy (Swaziland)
4 out of 6 found this review helpful

Don't ever buy a BBC disc called "The Best of .....", never mind "The Very Best of". They are not so much edited as butchered. It seems they have a clapometer or laughometer and then extract some of the previous bits for our delight. The point is that in "Have I got News for You", or "Round the Horne", etc. there is a rhythm within the episode as well as across episodes, which is where much of the comedy lies. That remains on the butchers' floor. Then there is the careless, bordering on disgraceful, presentation of the series, from the boxes to the documentation. The BBC could make a big thing of this, to allay their licence fee, but it seems they can't be bothered, leaving it all to ignorant amatuers. Amateurs? No, amateurs would enjoy the work and involve themseves in it.
