5 out of 5 stars Give the devils his due   May 22, 2009
E. Hearn (Wickford Essex)
Once again the Devil is met with an awkward entrant in the form of Edith who is convinced that she did not commit suicide and so satan must find her murderer. His methods are not exactly normal

If you like Last of the Summer Wine or Allo Allo then you will hate this. It's well written and superbly performed and is so funny that I can't listen while on public transport for fear of laughing out loud and getting strange looks. Don't start here though, treat yourself to the first, sadly incomplete, series on CD and work through the entire collection. I promise you won't regret it as Andy Hamilton is, in my humble opinion, the finest comedy writer of recent years.

I loved this series on Radio 4 and have been enjoying listening to it on Radio 7 but I couldn't wait for them to get back around to Series 6.

Andy Hamilton is a genius - when he is going to write another series?



5 out of 5 stars A fine return to form.   May 18, 2008

Old Harry's Game is a great radio comedy that is set in hell and follows the trials and tribulations of Satan played fantasically by the writer Andy Hamilton. For me it is the greatest radio comedy since the marvellous goon show. However, season 5 had seen a rare dip in form due primarily to the loss of one of the main characters the professor but season 6 gets back on track with the character of Edith played by Annette crosby. Edith fills the void left by the professor by doing what he used to do by standing up to the devil and questioning his actions. The difference with Edith though is she was mother in law of the long suffering Thomas which adds an edge to some of the humor. Her being a historian and made to write satans biography is a very good series arc which lets you hear a lot of Andy hamilton's humour on the bible and religion. The series is made up of 3 discs and runs for 3 hours. It is not essential that you listen to the rests of the series (u can't listen to all of the first 4 series as the BBC in their infinite wisdom only realeasd 3 episodes of each series.)as you can still enjoy the humour but I highly recommend that you also listen to the rest. You will not be sorry.

Another superb series from Andy Hamilton. His writing is really fired up by the presence of Annette Crosbie as Edith, as he tries to investigate her possible murder as a pay off for her agreement to write his biography. Scumspawn makes it his mission to psychoanalyse and reform Thomas, who is finding redemption quite difficult when he has to share a dungeon with his ex mother-in-law- Edith. There's lots of Jeffrey Archer jokes and descriptions of Jane Austen's tattoos. A really amusing 3 hours entertainment.
