BBC Radio 4 Extra - Continuity, Episode 4

At the Preston pie competition, our announcer muses on the meaning of life.

Radio 4 heads to Preston for the national pie competition, leading the announcer to muse on the meaning of life. Subversive sitcom starring Alistair McGowan. From September 2010.

A seasoned and meticulous continuity announcer presents the very best of next week's radio with aplomb. 

There's something for everyone here: Radio 4 goes to Preston for the national pie competition, Sarah Topolski gives us a sneak preview of next week's obituaries - exciting for most of us - and there's unbridled hilarity from the United Nations as our Foreign Office sitcom goes Stateside. No Philosophical Logic this week though. You can't have everything.

Alistair McGowan stars in this subversive sitcom about a continuity announcer, written by Hugh Rycroft. Also starring Lewis Macleod, Sally Grace, Charlotte Page and David Holt.


Produced by David Spicer and Frank Stirling
A Unique production for BBC Radio 4.
