Experience the pinnacle of British satire with the limited-edition CD release of On The Hour: Series Two. Originally broadcast on BBC Radio 4 between 1991 and 1992, this cult-classic news parody was brought to physical format by the prestigious Warp Records in 2008 (Catalog: WARPCD135).
Masterminded by Chris Morris and Armando Iannucci, this series features an incredible "wall of fame" comedy cast, including Steve Coogan, Rebecca Front, and Stewart Lee. Morris stars as the bombastic, over-zealous anchorman, delivering a savage dissection of current affairs through surreal sound-bites, dead-pan interviews, and the iconic "man-on-the-street" segments.
Key features of this compilation include:
- Authentic Audio: Five episodes in their heavily edited repeat forms, plus the rare "lost" Episode 5 rescued from an off-air cassette.
- Bonus Material: Includes the original 1992 Christmas Special.
- Pristine Production: Renowned as one of the best-sounding comedy programs ever recorded, with meticulous audio design that retains its bite decades later.
Whether you are a fan of The Day Today or I’m Alan Partridge, this collection is a must-have piece of comedy history. As the anchorman himself says: "These facts are ear-shaped, let's ram them home!"
