The Consultants: The Complete Series 1-4

The BBC Radio 4 Comedy Sketch Show

De: Neil Edmond, Justin Edwards, James Rawlings

Narrado por: James Rawlings, Justin Edwards, Neil Edmond

All four series of the award-winning BBC Radio 4 sketch show

Welcome to The Consultants’ lifestyle presentation conference and comedy show – listen and learn as they present their 1000-point plan of action, complete with shouting, songs and plenty of silliness.

In these 22 episodes, the team ponder how to revamp tea to make it more dangerous and exciting, wonder why so many men went to ‘mow a meadow’, practise the dark arts with a lightly tossed salad, and make latex representations of a spaniel with the help of children's entertainer Jeremy Lion. Plus, Demis Roussos and Napoleon Bonaparte enter a witness protection scheme in Swanage, a 'ladies man' sings about his suspect personal hygiene, and two travellers stumble upon a very unusual pub quiz...

Written and performed by Radio 4’s only three-man double act, the Perrier Award-winning Neil Edmond, Justin Edwards and James Rawlings, this witty, cerebral sketch comedy features an eclectic mix of puns, serials, ditties and sketches suitable for the elderly, children and elderly children. It will not help you progress along the path to business enlightenment – but it will make you laugh a lot.

One of my favorite sketch comedies

Clever and funny with a lot of variety. Sketch comedies are hit or miss with me, but I loved this one all the way through.

Worth A Listen

Recommended for fans of "That Mitchell & Webb Sound" and many classic Monty Python albums.
