“A rebooking, break out the champagne”. I grew up in Southend which sounds a lot like Stoneybeach. An expat listening in S Florida, a lot sunnier than Southend.

Leslie Phillips had such a long and storied career. He really did get kind of typecast as the suave womanizer, but it fit him perfectly.

Did anyone give British Rail more grief or bad publicity than Bristow?

Has anyone else noticed that the post boy sounds like a girl? I don’t think it’s the same post boy in other episodes. Maybe another cast member was pulling double duty. Nevertheless, it’s a very good cast, especially the tea ladies.

BEST AUDIO

Thanks again for digging these up Ade. Brilliant stuff

A very delightful movie. Thank you.

Patrick Knowles was also one of those actors who was not appreciated the way he should have been. He was an extremely versatile actor---- comedy or drama!!

Great story

Can’t forget Mr Cochran as Bertie!!

Better than The Royle Family, by a country mile ❤

Such fun!

Absolutely love these stories. Preferable to watching TV. Not much quality on these days.

Cheers Ade. Thanks so much, made my week with these

Every scene is comedy gold, funniest series ever 😂😂😂

TO THE REGIMENT 🍻

There will never be another Bob Hope ❤😂🫂 Love his movies! I fizzed a little myself 😉👍💕😂

Superb. Great satire on office life.

A shame this isn't in color!

how did superman manage to be strangled, did his super powers fade away.

To the regiment!

My dad was a big Bristow comic strip fan growing up. I don’t know if he was aware of it being produced on radio. Unfortunately, he passed away ten years ago so I have no way of knowing. I think he would have loved it. An expat listening in S Florida.

Cheers Ade. Thanks for this. always one of my favourite series. BBC sounds never repeats it

Two great stars who went too early😕

One of the best comdies ever .

Hilariously chaotic!! ❤❤😂

Always loved Hattie

Is this funny?😳

I haven’t seen or heard from Rodney Bewes since the Likely Lads.

As a kid, I remember my dad used to love Bristow in the Evening Standard. I never realized it had been made into a radio play. An expat listening in Florida.

Another great Bob Hope movie, this time he gets the beautiful Rhonda Fleming in the end. And Roland Young out of his "Topper" character and the bad guy. Great movie. well worth watching again. Joe S

When handing out praise don't forget the writer. No one ever bothers with the writer(s).

Hollywood produced great movies back then. I'm glad it's been preserved.

Too many damn adverts

👍👍👍

Downloaded god 6.6

One of the top 5 UK comedies ever imo

"These things are for seeing microbes." 😄

Thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting. The characters are interesting-the actors are good.

2024, bob hope, everybody knew him

Very good 😁

Andrew Sachs is ideal as Fr Brown.

I have learnt that the "Jewish conspiracy" comments by the neighbour in no way represents Buchan's beliefs. Appparently Hitler labelled Buchan a "Jewish sympathizer". I presume the comments may be meant to make the person producing them a nutcase.

Hey, Jim Backus too!

Would recognise these two very distinctive voices anywhere.

It's interesting to see how Bob Hope influenced Woody Allen's manerisms in his early films like Take The Money And Run, Bananas, Love and Death, Play It Again Sam...

OMG, Topper killed Superman?
