BBC Radio 4 - John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme, Series 4, Episode 2

The rudest of awakenings for one particular pet and the positive side of stereotyping.

The rudest of awakenings for a pet and a rare look at the positive side of stereotyping. With Carrie Quinlan. From October 2014

John Finnemore, the writer and star of Cabin Pressure stars in his own hit sketch show.

Including a sketch that you'll never really own; the rudest of awakenings for one particular pet; and a look at the positive side of stereotyping.

John's second series won Best Radio Comedy at both the Chortle and Comedy.co.uk awards, and was nominated for a Radio Academy award. The third series won a Radio Academy award.

And here are some more sketches!  (but not so much like them that they feel stale and repetitious and not so different that this feels like a misguided attempt to completely change the show) and it's a pretty safe bet some of them will involve talking animals.

Written by and starring John Finnemore.

With:

Margaret Cabourn-Smith
Lawry Lewin
Simon Kane
Carrie Quinlan

Original music by Susannah Pearse

Producer:  Ed Morrish

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in October 2014.
