Carry On Listening!

BBC Radio Three have a fantastic new series going out at the moment focusing on some giants of British comedy. And Sid James is thankfully one of them. 

The Essay features historian Simon Heffer discussing the lives and work of a selection of classic British film comedians. Each essay lasts just 15 minutes so they are perfect little programmes to catch on the go. Sid's programme was the last in the series which also featured Tony Hancock, Alastair Sim, Terry-Thomas and Will Hay. 

Nice to see Sid is such esteemed company! The programme rightly says that Sid was one of the best-loved comic actors of his day. I for one think he is still as popular today.

These programmes are well worth a listen. You can access them via the BBC Website
