Finally, an episode with the four original regulars! I'm amazed it
took until the fifth release.

Glad to see lots of Peter Jones as well, he's my favourite and I
sometimes feel he doesn't get the recognition he deserves on these
Classic compilations. Let's hope he makes it onto the front this time.

Overall a top-notch cast, I'm looking forward to hearing from pretty
much everyone on there.

Very much looking forward to this release, especially as I don't
believe I've heard any of the last three (maybe not even the first,
although of course it's hard to tell). I really haven't had time yet
to listen to as many pre-90s shows as I would have liked.

Paul Merton commentary is exciting too. I enjoy Nicholas' comments,
but I wouldn't expect there's much more for him to say, so Paul's
addition should bring some freshness.

I think the new Clue CD is also due for release the same day? I know
they both got pushed back.
