Not The Nine O'Clock News: The Memory Kinda Lingers (Vintage Beeb)

Not the Nine O'Clock News is one of the great classics of British television comedy, with co-writers including Richard Curtis, John Lloyd, Andy Hamilton, Guy Jenkin, Colin Bostock-Smith, and Howard Goodall. Politicians, entertainers, world powers, members of the Royal Family, pop stars, and even Barry Manilow fans were all fair game in this wickedly funny satirical sketch series. Highlights include 'McEnroe's Breakfast,' 'Game For A Laugh,' 'Question Time,' 'The Return of Constable Savage,' and musical manglings including 'Bloody Typical,' 'Nice Video (Shame About the Song),' 'The Two Ninnies Song,' and the mini-musical 'Laker!' But be warned: there is strong language and adult humor which reflects the era in which it was first performed. Vintage Beeb: classic albums first available as BBC LPs, now on CD for the first time ever.
