A song from Syd Rumpo and Kenneth Horne checks in at the Bona Guest House. With Kenneth Williams and Betty Marsden. From 1967.

'What Shall We Do With The Drunken Nurker?' as sung by Rambling Syd Rumpo.

And it's a Horne from home for Kenneth at Julian and Sandy's Bona Guest House.

Packed full of colourful characters, parodies, memorable catchphrases, and double-entendres.

Starring:

Kenneth Horne
Kenneth Williams
Hugh Paddick
Betty Marsden
Bill Pertwee

Announcer: Douglas Smith

Recorded at the BBC's Paris Studio in Lower Regent Street, London.

Music by Edwin Braden and the Hornblowers and The Fraser Hayes Four.

Round The Horne was born out of the demise of BBC radio comedy Beyond Our Ken. Using the same cast and producer, Barry Took and Marty Feldman wrote the brilliantly inventive - and sometimes outrageous - scripts for four series between 1965 and 1968.

Producer: John Simmonds

First broadcast on the BBC Light Programme in May 1967.
