The Goon Show Vol. 19 ‘Ned’s atomic dustbin’ – (2 CDs, approx running time 2 hours)

BBC Radio Collection

Shangri La Again! / The Pevensey Bay Disaster / The Spectre Of Tintagel / Ned’s Atomic Dustbin

Goon but not forgotten. From 1952 to 1960 the Goons ruled the airwaves, the most celebrated and influential clowns in the history of radio.

GO ON – help engine driver Neddie foil the Great Train Robbers of snow-bound Pevensey Bay, explore the exotic delights of Shangri La (it sounds like Utopia but it’s spelt differently), follow King Arthur Seagoon as he searches for the lost treasure of Tintagel (if you count the famous Eccles it’s twice knightly) and ride Niagra Falls in Ned’s foolproof (well, it proves them all fools) atomic dustbin.

Yes, folks, it’s another crazy quartet of unforgettable vintage Goonery from those wily wireless wizards Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan and Harry Seacombe.

They’ve been through hell to get here. These must be a cooler route.
