The first course was "The Complete Limericks Collection" which sold over 30,000 copies in the trade last Autumn. Now the team is ready to expose every bit of their talent assisted by Sven, Samantha and Mrs Trellis. Profoundly illustrated, we revisit: the "Late Arrives at the Ball", "Celebrity Lonely Hearts", "Famous Unsuccessful Chat Up Lines", "Famous First Words", "Hitler's Diaries" (ideas for fraudulent diaries from other famous folk), "Unhelpful Advice" (the team supplies unhelpful advice to among many a sex education class and new parliamentarians), "Mrs Trellis' Letters", "Name That Barcode", "National Anthems" (suggestions for unusual anthems for countries around the world), "Humphrey's Opening Links", "Proverbs in Translation", "Through the Keyhole", "Topical Nursery Rhymes", "Low budget Remakes of Famous Films" ...and much more. "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue" is the most listened-to comedy programme on British radio, an institution with regular panellists Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, Barry Cryer and until 1996 Willie Rushton, being given silly things to do by jazz supremo Humphrey Lyttelton.
Listener figures are now over 2 million each week and is now aired also on Radio Two, the only radio comedy show to do so. Tickets are so keenly sought after shows are now held in two thousand seat theatres around the country. This is the big humour title for Christmas.
