I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue's Humphrey Lyttelton In Conversation: Play As I Please

Humph - bandleader, cartoonist, writer, chairman of BBC Radio 4's I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue, president of the Society for Italic Handwriting and doyen of jazz trumpeters. In conversation with June Knox-Mawer, Humphrey Lyttelton reflects on his extraordinary life; from schooldays at Eton and playing out 'Roll Out the Barrel' outside Buckingham Palace on VE Day, to the formation of his band in 1948 and his emergence as 'the godfather of British jazz'. In his incredibly varied career he was a cartoonist for the Daily Mail, a journalist for Punch and even formed his own record company. In this recording he shares his joy of music with his beloved humour. It's a wry, witty and wonderful story told in his characteristically urbane style and peppered with some of his own great jazz favourites.

I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue: In Search Of Mornington Crescent

Mornington Crescent is a game enshrined in many of the legends of our sceptred isle. Now, at last, the eminent broadcaster Andrew Marr peers - with the help of Humphrey Lyttelton, Graeme Garden, Tim Brooke-Taylor and Barry Cryer and many famous fans of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue - behind the veil of secrecy which has until now surrounded it. In this extended hour-long special, first broadcast on BBC Radio 4, the myth and mystery of the ever-popular game is finally uncovered, with contributions from well-known experts and enthusiasts of the game: Dame Judi Dench, Sir Michael Gambon, Antony Worrall Thompson, Adam Hart-Davis and Barry Davies. Including extra unbroadcast material, the almost unbelievable story of this illustrious game is told via interviews with historians, scholars and members of the public. It is a fascinating documentary, both for 'Mornington Crescent' novices as well as more seasoned players of the game. As if that wasn't enough, the Clue team also provides readings of four historical accounts on the subject: The Artful Dodgson, The Scandal of Mad Jack Camden, Game and Death On The Line. From Roman times to Chaucer and beyond, 'Mornington Crescent' has become a legend at its own tube stop. Now, at last, its true history can be told.
