Yes, it's hello again from them. For nearly 25 years The Two Ronnies were a TV institution, a much-loved double-act, each with his own inimitable, individual appeal. Who could forget Barker's hilarious 'pispronunciation', Corbett's witty monologues, the risque limericks, the puns, the patter, and the parody? So enjoy another fun-filled feast of verbal fireworks. Inspired classic comedy from the two one-offs who said goodnight but not goodbye.

Accompanied by his long-suffering wife Margaret (Annette Crosbie), Victor's howlingly funny battles against what he perceives as modern-day ills have turned him into one of the great comic creations of our time.

Welcome to the inside-out world of Mitchell and Webb, a strange and surreal place populated by misfits, eccentrics, talking animals and a few stray Radio 4 arts programme presenters. Included here are all five series of their fantastically skewed comedy show, packed with offbeat sketches and peculiar characters. Meet seedy snooker commentators Ted and Peter; poorly matched crime-fighting duo Angel Summoner and BMX Bandit; a cop who doesn't get results but, by God, he does things by the book; and some nervous Nazis who've just noticed their caps have skulls on them.

Loved every second of it.
It helps if you’ve watched the actual show -because you can visualise the actual actors… I’m also really pleased that they had John Cleese commenting at the start of each show-about what we were about to watch/listen to, and they had Andrew Sachs -the actor that played “Manuel’, provide the parts in the episode about things you couldn’t hear -but needed to know for it to make sense. Well done for allowing people to relive these shows over and over again without actually watching them.

Edited versions slightly annoying.
Being a connoisseur of the show and knowing the scripts backwards, it was annoying that quite a bit was edited out from some episodes. Still the number one British comedy.

LOVE these episodes.
Love this TV series, so glad they turned it into audio! I can picture what's happening in my head and still have a good laugh. The Cleese intros are quite interesting too, learned a lot about the making and behind the scenes of the series and that episodes have a message for society. Manuel is also perfect for narration. Have listened over and over and overt and they're still great!
