I just heard that sketch on Radio 4 - about 10 minutes ago.

Are they repeating `Round the Horne' then?

"I'll guess that 'riah' is a smile?"
Actually, riah means hair - being simply the word "hair" backwards.

Hi ZSF: no, it wasn't a repeat of Round the Horne, but a thing on the R4 6:30 comedy slot. Sorry I'm not being very helpful here, but I just caught about 10 minutes of it and was delighted to hear Jules and Sandy AND Flanders and Swann.

Sorry I missed it!
... and still wondering whether any of the suggested changes are going to be made to this entry. Mind you, if it does go off to the Flea Market, there are at least a couple of people waiting to leap on it and run with it.

I'm going to propose a move to the Flea Market on this. Hannah hasn't been around since 8 October.

Seconded 
I'd like to see an EG entry on this subject and if Hannah isn't around to implement the suggestions made someone else should be given a chance

Am just waiting to see if the (still active) researchers that said they were going to rescue this are ok about me taking it over - although they started on it two years ago so I'm guessing that they won't mind!

A and U links won't work in threads unless you have a space on either side. This: U147203 works, but this:U147203 doesn't.
