- Synopsis:
- A match made in heaven - BAFTA award-winning comic Paul Merton stars in eight shows scripted by comedy legends Galton and Simpson. Merton's deadpan delivery ably complements the droll humour and timeless quality of Galton and Simpson's scripts - shows which were originally written for Les Dawson, Stanley Baxter, Leslie Phillips and comedy icon Tony Hancock, among others. Updated slightly to make them more contemporary, these stories also feature Sam Kelly, Roger Lloyd Pack, Caroline Quentin, Nigel Planer, Lynda Baron and Josie Lawrence.
