Ronnie Barker's More Lines From My Grandfather's Forehead

Here's a further cornucopia of clever comedy, featuring sketches, monologs, poems and songs in this sequential entertainment for radio. The sketches on this recording include: a bizarre slice of Shakespeare, a poem for a man with a plan, and a forgetful actor. There are also people who use lots of words—but say very little. As well as a musing pianist, we also hear a two-headed "Great Eccentric", a spoof Paul Temple, and wires get crossed on the telephone. Co-written by Gerald Wiley (the pseudonym used by Ronnie Barker) and many others, this sophisticated cabaret-cum-sketch-show contains plenty of witty wordplay. Starring Ronnie Barker, with Terence Brady, Pauline Yates, Josephine Gordon, and Dick Abell.
