Unusual Wall Hangings

It's a joy when listeners contact the show to tell us something that could not be made up. Richard told us about his friend who mounted an old motorbike on his wall after his girlfriend made him choose between her and the bike. We also had a taxi driver who picked up an embalmer in the back of his cab and went into her living room where he saw a beautiful Italian coffin on the wall. So when Mike told us his uncle has a stuffed crocodile above the fireplace we asked if he could pop round with his camera to take a picture. As promised, here it is.

Previously…on The Richard Lewis Show

Here are some highlights from the show from Richard laughing so hard he has trouble speaking to an impression of Shirley Bassey at a football match. There's even a reminder of how low budget our celebrity filled Pantomime was at the end of last year. Enjoy!

Previously - Dateless Tom

Fancy dating a Millionaire? Well Tom Laing is just that but still can't get a date so of course Richard and Ben decided they could help by helping him put out an appeal to single women in Bristol. Poor Tom.

Previously - Ugly Second Wife

When esteemed newsreader Stephen Lamb popped into the studio with an unusual news story it seemed Richard found it funnier than he'd expected!

Previously - Shirley Bassey

Comedian Craig Hill looks nothing like the legendary singer Shirley Bassey, but that didn't stop him giving his vocal chords a good exercise by doing his impression of the legendary singer for us.

Previously - Classroom

The Richard Lewis Show as part of the National Curriculum? Surely not!

Previously - Panto

A whole host of celebritied unwittingly ended up as cast members in this year's best radio Pantomime Dickie In Pantoland.

Previously - Odd Skills

It's not just Ben and Richard who have talent (?!), it seems some of our listeners have very unusual talents themselves.
