TV’s first ecclesiastical comedy, All Gas and Gaiters was enjoyed by more than 10 million viewers on BBC One between 1966 and 1971. Written by husband-and-wife-team Pauline Devaney and Edwin Apps, it was so popular that a selection of scripts were revised and re-recorded for radio with the same star cast as the television series. Robertson Hare starred as the archdeacon of the fictional St Ogg’s Cathedral. 

One of the most popular sitcoms of the 60s, All Gas and Gaiters successfully brought its good-natured satire of ecclesiastical life to radio in 1970.

Mervyn Noote, the Bishop, the Dean, and the Archdeacon. Starring Derek Nimmo, Jonathan Cecil, William Mervyn, John Barron and Robertson Hare.
