The Armstrong & Miller Show

Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller co-write and star in all four episodes of the complete BBC Radio 4 comedy spoof series ‘The show that treats you – the kids – just like adults. Remember though, if you spoil it, you spoil it for everyone...’ Pompous critics and culture journalists Martin Bain-Jones (Armstrong) and Craig Children (Miller), present a frightfully clever culture show, a wry look at the fringes of popular music. They’re hip, they’re happening – so they say – and in these four episodes they discuss Boy Bands (‘Peter Andre would be in a band if he had any mates’), Middle of the Road (‘those bland or unchallenging songs’), as well as Brit Pop and Solo Artists. Follow them as they compete to get the best scoop. Who knows, they may even win a Best of the Rest Award. A ‘Brest’ in other words...

The complete BBC Radio 4 comedy sketch series from Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller. Welcome to the strange world of Armstrong & Miller, which includes some comedy sketches with tough-guy cops in Parsons and Lampkin (and Lampkin’s Mate Steve), and there’s an insider’s view of National Trousers Day – ‘because involvement should be as easy as a walk to the wardrobe’. More highlights include some really macho rock climbers, and the corrupt world of mountaineering: is Everest the tallest mountain, or are there others they keep quiet about so they don’t have to climb them? There’s a track from rock legends Strijka, and you can also hear how Logarythm – the world’s most successful school band – got together.

You will, as a perceptive consumer, have realised that the box set contains every single episode of both series and will need no reminder that it includes all your, and indeed our, favourite characters. How could we forget the admirably unguarded tales we have been regaled with by the Inappropriate Dentist or the forensically detailed guidance given by Frank Dad? Can you recall the moment when you first heard those distinguished lines from our wartime friends, ‘Oh my God, no way blud that is so random'? And we shan't forget ever so slightly tiresome friend Jilted Jim, determined to enjoy his honeymoon, even without his beloved bride.

A whole host of favourite characters return including Frank Dad, the Striding Man and the street-talking WWII Pilots plus a raft of brand spanking new creations. Among them are The White Devil, a self-important ex-pat in Africa - roaming the back roads, saving lives and fixing his hair in the wing mirror of his 4x4; Jilted Jim, dumped at the altar but still on his honeymoon, turning the lives of other newly weds into a living hell; Dennis Lincoln-Park, an accident-prone culture buff, searching for the most valuable art works in the history of civilization; and Terry Devlin, a flamboyant high society hanger-on who masquerades as a BBC News Royal Correspondent wherever he goes.

The line-up of characters, includes Brabbins and Fyffe, the filthy alter-egos of Flanders and Swann; the Inappropriate Dentist, who regales his captive audience with tales of swinger parties and the state of his pet dog's prostate; Tony and Dimitri, a hapless football manager and his Russian oligarch boss; and wartime fighter pilots, talking in modern-day street lingo. Wince at the near-the-knuckle instructions of a politically incorrect sat nav, and marvel at the very existence of Pru and Miranda, two fat ladies with the difference that they can neither cook nor run Dandy Lion's, their brain-meltingly inefficient vegetarian restaurant nestled in Hampstead.
