I really must encourage you loons to listen to this radio show for just this one episode. It is easily the best I've ever heard, and if you like nonsense then you will love this.

 

I don't what will happen if you love nonsense.

Which one do you recommend?

 

EDIT: Dur, nevermind.

It's OK. I can't understand why they don't allow direct linking.

[SteveThaiBinh]

I think you can link directly to Radio Player: try this.

 

A very good episode indeed, and Jeremy Hardy's singing is definitely improving. My favourite remains Linda Smith singing the words of Psycho Killer to the tune of Save Your Love by Renee and Renato.

[Oerwinde]

Sweet, Goon Show. I've only heard a few of them but they were hilarious.

[Walsingham]

If any of you have been wondering what I sound like, check out the 22:30 slot on Friday

for Giles Wemmbley-Hogg Goes Off. I'm not _quite_ that posh. But close.

I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue is a British broadcasting institution - it's been going for over thirty years. Of the recent guest panellists, I think Sandi Toksvig and Jeremy Hardy tie for first place, but everyone has their favourite. Of course, it also gave us the greatest game ever created - Mornington Crescent. Anyone fancy a game?

[Walsingham]

Only if you're prepared to outline the reduced Bavarian Autarch rules in full, Steve.

Franz Ferdinand variation?

[Walsingham]

Franz Ferdinand variation?

 

In slow eights? Not bloody likely, mon amis.

 

Don't forget this particularly good episode will only be around until the end of today.

[metadigital]

We could adapt it with the Brahms, Chopin or, even better, Tchaikovsky 5/4 time. No bloody polka, though.

[SteveThaiBinh]

Only if you're prepared to outline the reduced Bavarian Autarch rules in full, Steve.

There's hardly a need, when any standard reference work on the game will do as much. A Tchaikovsky variation will leave Covent Garden a free move if approached from the diagonal, which would suit my style of play, I must admit. I'll leave it up to you.

[Walsingham]

OK, but I've only brought three balls, so keep to underhand lobs at half time.

[metadigital]

That will make the Northern Line almost impassable for most of the game, then. Unless we drain the Thames.

[Walsingham]

Aw nuts. We can't do that. I've lost the card.

 

Anyway, you can still follow the link and get the shows. They're just differet ones. Come, people of the world! I paid my license fee and now invite you all to overburden the BBC servers as my guests!

West Acton to Holland Park, utilizing the Peter Faulks manuoevre.

[SteveThaiBinh]

Maida Vale.

[metadigital]

Ooo, miss a turn, Walsh!

 

 

Hammersmith!

[SteveThaiBinh]

Nicely blocked, Meta. That's the whole District Line gone.

 

I play Perivale, and I also want to play my joker here: all stations around Notting Hill Gate count double for the next three turns.

[Gfted1]

Hammersmith!

 

 

A tube system just for bicycles! Im impressed.

[Walsingham]

Well, since you chaps have launched into the downward spin immediately on starting play I'm entitled to play

 

Capetown

Ah, well, I must thank you for leaving that opening:

Cheating swine! I can see you've a congruent slang hidden up your right sleeve!

[Gorgon]

*what the hell*

Sir, I am offended at your insinuation!
